APHRODITE

817018.jpg

First we have Aphrodite, goddess of lust. This is probably one of the best dye jobs I've ever done. Her necklace is custom made by me, (blackened heart at center) and she's posed beside her little French poodle.

APOLLO

Next we have Apollo, god of the sun, pictured with his monkey companion. Necklace was made by me. I'm very happy with how he turned out, especially his symbol.

ARES

Here is Ares, complete with mohawk, dual colored goatee, broken horn, and appropriate companion.

ATHENA

Next is Ares' rival sister, Athena, goddess of wisdom, also with mohawk, custom earrings, and a cute little companion. Dyeing a pony black is one of the hardest things to do. the color bleeds almost eternally, and shows up most of her imperfections, including some surface scratches. Her symbol was redone several times, and I finally decided on a simple silver owl.

OSIRIS

817003.jpg

The only foreign god this time around, Osiris was the god of the afterlife. I depicted him with a scarab beetle symbol with sun rays above it. He has a cat companion and braided beard to boot.

PERSEPHONE

817012.jpg

Persephone was one of the few Greek goddesses I chose to recreate in pony form that was not one of the twelve Olympians. Originally her color scheme was going to be blue and orange, but I ended up with this instead. I hope to recreate the other color scheme on Pandora, someday. Symbol is a dissected pomegranate, in case you're scratching your head.

Woah. Those are impressive! Rock-on! Enjoyed these, my belles..excellent! I so adore..
 
they are al; so goregous! Aphrodite's dyejob is AMAZING! and i love Ares and Athena's mowhawks. Apollo is drop dead goregeous too and the only non-unicorn i just noticed XD; and i adore Persephone; she's actually one of my favorites in the Greek pantheon, and your custom is just stunning.

:reaper: Kat :reaper:
 
I love them all!! My favorite part though, has to be the beards!!
 
Thanks for all your very sweet comments! I appreciate them!

LLB: You're absolutely right about Apollo! So far he's the only earth pony out of all my gods and goddesses, and I've just reached the twenty mark! I debating adding a horn to him, but decided to leave him as is. Unicorns seem so much more god-like to me, but I've decided to start adding in a few more pegs and earth ponies, too!
 
loves apollo and persephoney! I so want them!
 
wow O_O tuneful! These blew my mind, they all look so beautiful. Something about Apollo is just completely amazing, the combination of the colour of the body, the hair, the gorgeous symbol, you really captured the essence of the character. This is really fantastic work and I love that you're doing some of the Greek Gods, I really love them. Any plans for Dionysus or Hermes? They're my favourites of the Dodekatheon! :D
 
Holy Moly! They are awesome! I must say that Ares and Persephone are my favorites by far, though! I would love to have Ares in my collection! Awesome job!
 
Thank you everyone!

ladyp: No, he didn't come with the broken horn, but ANOTHER Buttons bait did, who was originally supposed to be Ares. But I messed up his dye job, so I had to cut the horn off a second bait instead!

Gusty: You're in luck, because both Hermes and Dionysus have already been completed!
