I totally saw this two hours ago. And now it's here. That's in-bloody-credible!

Oh my god. Its transported itself from your house to the internet. This is amazing!

HOW DID THAT HAPPEN! My scanner, it is like some sort of mystical transportation device into internetland!

Falafels are fabulous, Gouache is equally fabulous, I like the application of it here

Gouache isn't as tasty thought :(
But it sure smells tasty.

-t

Patience my friend, someday Thus will have the great skill required to paint with falafel. And when that day arrives, ah such glory as shall be beheld...

Always did like him. Anubis is overrated! Nicely done as always.

Heh... nice to meet another like-minded person... :)

mmmm... watercolors <3

*grins widely* Beautifully drawn, Zarathus... I am very taken with the expression on his face... patient and yet somehow not both at the same time, heh.

It is a splendid piece of work... thank you for sharing it. :)

Thank you Seht :) Took me long enough to get around to finishing it, but I'm really glad you like it!

*smiles* It was worth the wait, most certainly. :)

I had started to think you might have forgotten, or moved on from the picture... But, to see it... Oh, Zarathus, your work is quite exquisite. :)

Thank you. :)

It had been nagging at the back of my mind for a long time. It's fairly standard for me to sketch something, then leave it sitting around for months before going to complete it. I was looking through old WIPs the other day and saw this, and decided then I must finish this, now. A couple of days of work later I finally had it done, and I'm so glad for having done so ^_^
Thanks again.

Is it just coincidence that your name is "seht"?

Yes and no. I came up with the name SeHT for myself quite out of nowhere, and the links to Set didn't come for quite a while. But I do have something of an affinity for the Old God, I will admit.

It's good to see artwork of an egyptian god that isn't full of penises around here. Absolutely fabulous work as always.

I really like the attention to detail with the muscle toning - especially in the ringbody.

This is pretty bloody excellent. <3

Very beautiful, Z :O. Particularly love the muscle details and the staff.

another awesometastic pic. how do you do it?

I'd always love the egiptian things,and this one's great
Fav

That is pretty damned impressive

I have returned from the dead. And seeing as my fetus dispenser never showed up (SIGH), I'm still holding your order of spare penii and vaginii. However, I will still flail over this piece, for it makes me squeak. I am sad for the ring-y creature, especially when it comes to a game of musical chairs. Ugh, your muscle-work makes me claw greedily at the screen for more. I'm so going to reference your work even more extensively now for my own secret drawings. Also...that strange person who seems to have stolen my man-skirt should give the Ringy Dragon (as it shall now be known) his head back. He has it hard enough as it is D: (I *really* do like the back muscles, though. My gods those look awesome)

Yay for you, and yay for me becoming un-un-dead so I can enjoy your stuff again.

Oh hello! Good to hear from you again, sir.
There are probably far better sources of reference than my work, but I am glad someone can find a good use for my stuff :O I would like to see these secret drawings of yours some time. Secretly.
While Set may be willing to give the head to the ringy dragon, he may be unsure as anyone else to where the head might be placed. I guess this is where improvision comes in.. and maybe some string and some superglue.

I agree! Becomming un-un-dead is worthy of much celebration. Thank you so much for the comment :D

Believe me...celebrations will be had. Celebrations involving Ringy Dragons, fetus dispensers, secret drawings, string and superglue. You know what I'm thinking about. But perhaps I'll email a drawing or two if any I do from herein seem worthy of your great eyes of artiness. (FYI, Firefox apparently thinks "artiness" is a real word. I didn't know it was.) If you receive any mysterious emails involving mysterious attachments that may or may not make it past the spam filter...you have been cursed with a secret drawing.

But you are welcome! Your art has many good uses, I think, and references for my piddlings are drops in the bucket. I look forward to more of your future arts, now that I am un-un-dead. Tell Set I still need the man-skirt back.

This sounds very mysterious :O I look forward to the possibility of such mystery!

I'll inform Set of this whenever I next speak with him. I'm sure he will appreciate your need for your manskirt. Manskirts are the best.

Btw, feel free to give me a poke on AIM some time too if you see me around. I have started using AIM again, however sparsely.

I HAVE YOU ADDED :< You are the only person on my list. YOU WILL KNOW WHEN I MESSAGE YOU, FOR IT WILL BE MYSTERIOUS.

Thank you for being gracious enough to inform Set of my need for manskirts. Your email inbox may yet be scarred with pitiable scribblings for this deed. I once drew a reproduction of a Tumuki picture, many years ago. He made for very nice dude-muscle-chest-homg practice. I wish I still had it.

I wanna see how the ring thing walks. :3

I'm imagining it looking all serious, then walking in a Chuck Jones-esque flippy-leg walk XD

Very awkwardly, I'm sure.

I imagine it walk eerily graceful, despite it's inconvenient design. Like something from Pan's Labyrinth.

And Apep?

:O!!! you finished it!
gouache you say? evil stuff >_>
evilly awesome though it seems! :]
*eats awesomeness through eyes*

You made him red!

You win the internets

I actually really love his staff :o Also does that creature have a beginning or end or is it just an organic version of the LHC? :B

LOL. I hadn't thought of that, but you could be right :O Maybe its function is also to smash protons together, also being continuously delayed..
The creature has no beginning/end. I'm sure its disappointed about this.

I'll bet it feels rather anticlimactic. I'm seriously dissapointed about the LHC being delayed. I want the end of the world now, damnit!

"That might destroy the universe... or make SCIENCE" xD

lolwut

A scan only shows a portion of the detail gone into this work of art-win ..

Exquisit detail as normal Thus , Im glad to have seen this with my own two eyes and observed your skill above all :)

* nose *

super wicked cool!

Ah, nice...I always like how you can work distinct textures in a subtle way...

Thank you :)

yes

i saw this and was awestruck.

you wouldn't happen to be thinking of selling prints of this, would you?

Set is one of my main gods of worship and I'd LOVE to ahve a piece like this on my wall near my altar.

Wow, thank you very much. I'm glad you like it enough to want a print for that purpose. I absolutely adore Set also..
I can't say I'd have any intention to sell prints of this however. But you're quite welcome to print off copies of your own if you feel inclined.

Sorry for the late response... I need to check my messages more often.

thanks =D i may have to get a good printer to do so =)

That has got to be one confused critter. *chuckles*

Much agreed. I have always been drawn to the way he is depicted, particularly the Set animal. When I finally read into his background I found myself curiously compelled by it, in a way I've only felt towards one other (Celtic) deity.
Thanks very much. I'd been wanting to draw him for a long time, but could never settle on how I'd like to see him drawn. Eventually this just fell into place, complete with the random creature-thing surrounding him. I still don't have a solid explanation for that...

I don't need to say anything. +Fav.

I like.

Amazing concept of Seth and I love the creatore to his feet! Very well pulled off, coloring-wise, also!

Interesting conception of him, very cool!
