Throughout history many different people have worshiped many different gods. Most of these people have depicted their gods in some way or other.
The premise of this challenge is simple: pick a god or gods from one pantheon then pick some others from other pantheons and combine them to make hilarious or cool new gods!
From Christianity, my savior and yours: Jesus Christ
There's like millions of Hindu gods, or one, Hindus can never agree on this. So here's Vishnu and Kali:
Greco-Roman Pantheon
Again, too damn many, so the head honcho and then my favorite: Zeus and Athena
The Ancient Egyptian pantheon has cool gods
Like these motherfuckers right here: Anubis and Horus
Norse gods:
Odin and Thor
YOU ARE BY NO MEANS LIMITED TO THE DEITIES POSTED
Have at it
~ BI-WEEKLY CHALLENGE THREAD ~
For those of you who frequent the conceptart.org forums this should be pretty familiar; tens of artistic combatants thrown together in to an artistic arena, each struggling for the honor of being dubbed a master of the visual arts. Those of you who succeed will be bathed in glory and the blood of their competitors, those of you who fail will be exiled to a life of shame and isolation.
The aim of this thread is to try and spice things up a bit here in the ol' Artist's Corner. This thread is for entries in to the challenge or the discussion thereof. If you'd like to suggest a topic for the weekly challenge, go right ahead, but understand that the last winner of the challenge has total control over the task (unless they have won more than two challenges in a row, see rules).
The rules are simple;
RULES:
* One entry per person, per challenge.
* A contestant cannot win more than two challenges in a row.
* Winner gets the privilege of choosing the next challenge.
* At the end of a challenge, the thread is locked and a new one is begun.
* Stick to the challenge topic; no going off on a tangent.
* All formats welcome, whether they be traditional or digital; 2D or 3D; still or animated.
If you're looking for inspiration, check out the aforementioned conceptart.org forums (specifically the creature/environment/character of the week sections).

cue fireworks, laserlights, doves, and David Banner's Crank It Up.
man, I played way too much Fight Night '04.
(no pun intended)
i have a really good idea for this one.
EDIT - a good website for this thread is http://www.godchecker.com/

I was just trying to help. You know helping.
Progress, not perfection.
"the common sense of Confucious (Kongzi), the ritual and magic of Daoism"
/facepalm
dream a little dream or you could live a little dream
sleep forever if you wish to be a dreamer
EDIT: How far can we push this? Could we use a demi-god like Herakles? A related mythological being like Fenrir? L. Ron Hubbard?
Still needs a crap ton of work, but thats what photoshop is for. It has a "prayer" or poem that goes along with it. Feel free to crit it to help me out... wait what am I saying, this is the AC thread. If I don't want it critted I shouldn't post it.
~Jeremy Clarkson
Do you really want to try to draw a line between "fake gods" and "real gods"? If you manage to put L. Ron Hubbard into your submission, I will vote for you.
Edit: P.S. "Gumbercules! I love that guy!"
Well you have to tell us your idea so we don't steal it.
If it's a Thor/Shiva with eight arms each holding Mjolnir, we're already there.
I was thinking of drawing a comic strip of the Apostle Peter opening jesus' tomb on the third day after his death and looking inside to find shoggoth christ and then closing it up and telling everyone that it's miraculously empty. Then, of course, going insane.
But then I remembered that I don't draw.
will i be sporadic with my art and probably never post it? most likely yes.
There's a good idea in there somewhere but I've got to pinpoint it.
Drawing a cartoon egg with feet sticking out the bottom is like cheating.
fucking US Acres
That character always seemed weird to me. Like weird in bad way. As for my idea I'm doing something with Poseidon. And the rest is mysterious.
Progress, not perfection.
Yeah, I see that. Would it be a big no-no if I left it that way to show how fucking huge he is? Just curious.
~Jeremy Clarkson
I disagree, I would extend it slightly. I see what you mean bout making his forearms thick, but I would still lengthen the arm a bit. Just like raise the whole hand a little and then fill in some wrist, because like mustang said his other one is slightly more slender.
P.S. I might have accidently reported your post manon while I was trying to quote it so if an admin crawls up your ass you can blame me lol.
