This is called "editorial art" everyone, I've made a title screen for my groups digital media presentation: God Games and Alter Egos.
The idea was pretty simple, a lighthearted depiction of some dieties with videogame/PC pop culture items... like Pan on an Apple laptop, Shiva with a Wii controller, Anubis (a god of my own religion) on a PSP, and the Christian God truimphantly holding up an Xbox 360 controler - inspired by his depiction by Michelangeo and the Sistine Chapel.
Currently the one used in the presentation has a photo background, due to not having enough time to draw one (I normaly don't like to combine photos with drawings). Hopefully later I can make my own cloud background.
Also I mistakingly depicted Shiva as a famale... finding out otherwise when it was too late. I apologize for the inaccuracy and Hopefully that won't distract from the drawing that much... after all the reason I wanted to include - or at least include what I thought was - a goddess to balance out all the gods in the drawing. So in a way he's a she for the sake of composition.
EDIT: Due to the nervousness of presenting the art with a stock photo I've decided to depict the origional scan without the background added in. Soon I'll repost this with a background I made myself. (Rezzit your comment got lost Im afraid :( )

Well... I was thinking Zeus but I could see him as an old Viking god as well. All I know is I based him off of this http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped.....ace_detail.jpg
