Look, it's another Egyptian god! This is my second favorite deity, Anubis. He's the god of mumification, and the guide of the dead souls to the Land in the West.

I rather like how his hair turned out - I tried patience for a change, and spent a lot of time on the sketch before coloring.

Media used: Mechanical pencil, Corel Photopaint 8, a mouse

I really like the movement and detail in this picture. I especially love the braids. I find your Anubis is somewhat androgynous, did you mean to do that? it's very pretty. oh, and this isn't a criticism, just something I thought of: did you know that Anubis was said to have red hair? one of the many reasons why red is associated with evil or bad omens and such.

Wooh! Anubis is my second favorite Egyptian god, too. Apophis is my first. Anyway, I love the detail of all the jewelry, and even the inside of the ears are colored to resemble a dog’s. Awesome job.

Indeed, one of the most well known gods of the Paut Neteru (Egyptian Pantheon), the god of judgement and guardian of the dead. Yes, his life story (and being a sardonic yet compassionate deity) reminds me of myself. It’s wonderful. Congratulations! Your efforts paid of, I see...
