Finally Made A Dionysus Design! Explanations Below The Cut

Finally made a Dionysus design! Explanations below the cut

In some myths Dionysus spends some time in India / Egypt, so I drew his outfit to be an antariya from the Vedic age (1500 BCE), which was around the time the Odyssey takes place (Mycenaean Era - 1600 - 1100 BCE)

His hair was inspired by a lion’s mane, and the long braid acts like a tail - so it sways and flicks based on his mood. He also has ears hidden somewhere in that fluffy mane LMAO

I gave him horns because two of his sacred animals are bulls and goats :)

He has rosettes patterned on his shoulders, face and back, though it tapers off near his hips. Leopards are one of his sacred animals too!

He has bangles from the Vedic age as well as beads and jewelry from the Mycenaean era. The serpent armband is also because it is a sacred animal to him too.

I made the beads colored in reference to the transgender flag because he’s a queer icon!!!

The belly piercing and grapes were just because of the parasites telling me to do so

If you have any other questions my ask box is open 👀

Aren't they the sweetest brothers ever? And with just a little brotherly teasing maybe a certain Blondie will stop being ashamed of that being his confirmed nickname?
