Gods and Heroes

Okay this one was a biggy. the prize picture for bit of a big request for the prize, but i didnt specify a size/limit to them XO

well he wanted a pic of various greek gods vs various anime/manga chars. i was like "whu?" but i really had fun researching everyone and designing the gods. tried to stick true to the ancient greek art with a bit of my spin on them.
this is drawn on A4 paper, so had to squeeze it all in. but im proud of the result. took me about ooooooooooh 10 hours total and is the reason there's been no Ryak-lo pages for the last couple of days Lmao.

here's the match ups. some of em i came up with, some PL680 came up with. had to leave a couple of chars off that he requested coz i was inking already when he changed his mind on some. so tough hhaha
01. Zeus – Goku (i doubt even a God can stop the leetist fanboys crying about Goku destroying planets)
02. Hera – Masane Amaha
03. Poseidon – Naruto (the sea vs the hurricane!)
04. Hades – Ichigo (shinigami vs the lord of the underlord)
05. Ares – Kodo (rage fueld yudakin vs the god of war)
06. Athena – Yoh Asakura
07. Hermes – Allen Walker
08. Aphrodite – Sailor Moon
09. Artemis – Inuyasha
10. Apollo – Sora
11. Hephaetus – Edward Elric (Blacksmith vs alchemist!)
12. Hercules – Luffy (raaaw strength)
13. Maka - Thanatos

due to the size of the pic i was gunna leave it black and white but i figured what the hell, and started to colour it and time got away from me. ironed out a few colouring techniques in the process. and good practice for some of the effects such as the kamehameha and background etc that ill probably end up using for big ryak-lo pics in the future anyhoo i digress. pleased with the results
