Ares The Red God Of War

Ares173

 

Ares:  the Hellenistic avatar of senseless, bloodstained war, military conflict at its most brutal, a cruel god filled with an unreasoning lust for slaughter that can only be slaked by brave men’s death, to watch their lives’ blood pour out on the field of battle and roar in satisfaction at the waste and misery. This version of Ares is butt naked like the ancient warriors who fought before Troy. As usual, I screwed up the perspective so he doesn’t have a right foot and I didn’t leave enough room for the fancy, crested Corinthian bronze helmet I originally planned to draw. So I made the best of a bad situation and gave him a Bronze Age boars’ tusk helmet, another Trojan War appropriate artifact. I only have three more deities to draw:  Aphrodite, Hephaestus, and Pallas Athena, and then I’ll have a complete set. Wish me luck, folks!
