Just a silly little guy joining artfight this year. Gonna be away from the site between the first through the sixth next month since I got things going on which means a possible higher chance I will do revenges

Just finished 6 oc moodboards for The Arcana fandom. First and third are apprentices while the other three are mages to some degree

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 27/06/2026

The art is from the game itself! I’ve been replaying it recently so there may be art relating to this silly love sick magician and my oc

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 27/06/2026

I might join art fight next year. Not doing it this year since it’s so close to the cut off (pretty sure I missed it too??), and the fact that I’m needing to get back into the groove of actually drawing. For now, look at my fictional partner, Asra- my artist origin story comes from The Arcana lol

Not super consistent posting anyway, but life shit is happening so I won’t be posting a whole lot (more than usual). Can treat y’all with a piece of recent art for compensation! Daedalus and Icarus years before the infamous flight

Makes me want to listen to Hadestown again seeing this reposted

I only created the trans masc one for myself. My brain decided to side quest with making 4 more. Trans fem, nonbinary, genderfluid and agender. May make more when I get the energy again. For now, these are free to use. Will post transparent versions later

I’d get a plushie of Zeus tbh. Absolutely adore his design

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 12/04/2026

After this one, I have two more to make. Finished this one last night/very early this morning. Definitely had a lot of fun figuring out the fatal flaw for the character.

000

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 12/04/2026

Ok! Took a moment and see if this works! PJO oc inspo/moodboards. Atlas the son of Zeus. Phoenix the son of Ares. Alarik the son of Dionysus. I got some lore on them but I need to finesse their individual lore before I post about it first

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 12/04/2026

Let’s see if I have to crunch the quality like I have to on Discord! This is my preemptive warning post before I possibly spam the repost/make posts back to back. If I have to do that, we shall die like men and watch me crash out a third time /hj

So, currently working on Polites’s ref sheet. Don’t plan on doing an underworld version since it’s a monochromatic teal green with white pupils. I will be adding his clothes in a moment, but had to take a break since I’ve been working on this for probably the last hour or so (maybe 2/3 with sketch)

000

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 24/03/2026

Hail Ares! I decided to do two versions as the helm is one of the most recognizable symbols outside of the spear. As for why I used blue and not red? A) It’s a more common color of lightning ; B) both Zeus and Hera tend to be very blue coded. With Ares being their child, it makes more sense

000

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 19/03/2026

Hail Father Zeus! Little devotional piece. He’s basically the only father figure I look up to. I’m probably gonna have to end up making a separate Bluesky account for my religion stuff. I am the Magpie as I associate myself with corvids and their representation of mortality

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 16/03/2026

I do plan on adding something in the empty space for Zeus’ altar card eventually. For now though, these are basically completed and I’m quite happy with these. As a note: I was thinking of adding drachmas to Hermes’ but decided against it since the caduceus felt like enough and got the point across

001

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 14/03/2026

New pfp. Digitally colored it. Did not plan on using lighting. The shading is to make an illusion to it being further away

020

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 13/03/2026

First post in a while? Woah! Anyway, this is half a piece of small sketchbook paper that’s going to be placed in my travel altar. Zeus and Hermes will be getting one as well either by tonight or tomorrow. There’s a welcoming prayer being hidden beside the epithets of Ares

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 14/01/2026

I meant “Favoured” not Favored. My apologies

000

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 14/01/2026

Main reason why I wouldn’t 100% recommend it is because if digging into the lore, there are potentially triggering topics. As far as memory serves, it’s not particularly brought up in the album, but it’s definitely brought up on the lore site

000

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 14/01/2026

Been a hot minute. Tbh, I wanna rant about a decade old album from a band that has disbanded. “Ulysses Dies At Dawn” by The Mechanisms Idk, I just love the world building and the music. My favorite song being “Favored Son”. Definitely not something I’d 100% recommend to everyone, but I like it.

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 29/10/2025

So- did end up drawing modern clothes for my oc. I’m thinking about making him my persona since I highly associate the design with myself. Dunno, but I’m definitely proud of this piece since I really like how it turned out

010

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 25/07/2025

I still have yet to finish this, but enjoy 2/4 parts of my eye refs. Next up is: Penelope, Athena, Aphrodite, Hera, Circe, & Calypso. If anyone wants to guess the eye colors I got picked out, feel free to guess. I’m genuinely am enjoying this & I get to plan out more designs fore later

000

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 13/07/2025

Anyway, have fun with Troy Saga eye colors + canonical coloration

000

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 12/07/2025

Side note: Will digitalize later. I’m just sketching to get a vibe. I have general color head cannons but yeah. Probably will give Troy saga eye colors since mostly Ody’s changes over the course of the whole musical. So yeah, have fun with this

000

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 12/07/2025

Haven’t posted in a hot minute. Anyway, been in a bit of a drawing funk so I will be making eye art for the named EPIC characters. That totals up to about 22, not including: variants, monsters, & the winions. May increase to 26 if I add in my other 4 ocs, but all I give is Phoenix for now

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 29/05/2025

I forgot his scars- Oop- I’ll fix that when I make his official ref sheets. Will post the SFW one here

000

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 29/05/2025

I promise- I know how to keep up with my list of things I want to draw. I just keep getting distracted and wanting to create new things… #epicoc

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

I need to research and note down things for the satyrs and nymphs so I can get the others done later. Anyway, I’m done yapping and now should get onto writing again

000

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

Mostly looking up things for 3 different ocs: Atlas (Half satyr), Leander (Hesperide Nymph), & Thyme (Lampad/Nereid/Aurae Nymph- created by the big 3) The other two aren’t any easier. The only one considered “easy” is Phoenix since he’d a demigod and has two animals to reference +

100

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

I may or may not reuse some of the stuff I’m typing for my rendition of the EPIC universe for my own canon & lore. Like how Satyrs are surprisingly more horse-like while Panes are closer to the stereotypical satyr. I love looking things up for research for design ideas (context in the replies)

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 26/05/2025

Backstory definitely won’t be angsty, or at the very least riddled with problems growing up around nymphs of a singular type. (It will be) It’s between that or being a mortal turned into an immortal. Either way, he’s a cupbearer that goes between all three worlds depending upon the time of season

000

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 26/05/2025

So, reusing the name Thymbraeus for an EPIC/Greek Myth oc. Thinking of making him an artificial nymph that was created by the 3 brothers (Hades/Poseidon/Zeus). I only know for nymphs in the EPIC fandom, they are an element + one creature. I got 6 (3 each) to work with now...

100

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 24/05/2025

OK SO I RENAMED THIS BASTARD. His name is Pyrometios. It just flows a lot better than Pythanesis. I should redraw him… maybe update his character as well. Definitely keeping the phoenix motifs though

000

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 15/05/2025

Mostly have about all the info I need for potential reference sheets to draw up. May just focus on Hades, Poseidon, Zeus, and Ody. Maybe also my main OC for the EPIC fandom named Phoenix. We’ll see. Oh- as a side note: Phoenix is in a hinge poly with Ody and Penelope. Curious? I will yap about it

000

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 15/05/2025

Though I might not do all of them unless I ready want to do dem for some are. I did include deities that are not at all in the musical because I like them. Until I am able to do animatics, I’m probably not gonna do most of them in all honesty. I’ll just do the ones I like/have ideas for

100

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 15/05/2025

Totals: 22 deities (24 when including Calypso and Circe) ~2-3 OCs ~12 canon mortals (including Tiresias) ~5 monsters/creatures Totaling up to about 44 designs. And- well- at least 3 are technically done (big 3 brothers), and 1 in the works. So that’s about 41 if we’re just talking about chibis.

100

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 15/05/2025

2 1/2 (front and back) pages in five star ring notebook filled with basic info about Greek gods (Animals, Colors, Plants & Symbols) just to only use some of that info for EPIC designs. Not to mention that I wanna draw my OCs as well. And the designs for the mortal characters in EPIC

100

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 15/05/2025

the EPIC fandom. So this has absolutely nothing to do with the actual deities I worship. This is just my fanon of the gods in EPIC

Note: I made grammatical mistakes and I’m only just seeing them- Anyway- just a random scenario in my head between Aphrodite and Ares when he comes back from engaging in a deadly fight. Feel free to interpret this however you wish. Also- yes Ares x Aphrodite x Hephaestus. I live for this ship in+

-Ody & Athena had, never will be since Ody doesn’t particularly need them anymore after the confrontation with Athena in I Can’t Help but Wonder. Though, the eye that showed their aid is now red/blue tinted. Thinking about doing partial heterochromia, but I’ll figure it out another time

Damocles’s Sword @damoclesswordthron.bsky.social · 12/05/2025

-in 600 Strike was more of a test to see if Ody would be worthy of his aid, & he was. This was Ares’ aid for Athena after the events of God Games. It isn’t until Hold Them Down that these two are at least somewhat on the same page. Even then, it’s not long enough to really have a relationship like+

-out the rest of his days in Ithaca with his wife & son. Telemachus still has Athena as his only mentor. This does not change. Ares doesn’t really care since his main focus is keeping an eye on Penelope & the suitors when he’s not giving some minor aid to Ody. Ares doesn’t like Ody. But helping him+
