He has a very charming smile :)
Howdy, I noticed I never shared this fella here.
The last year I was obsessed with a venezuelan petroglyph, so I wanted to read as much as I could find about it (There's a thread on twitter, btw), and also... Draw a character inspired of it
I'm still working in his story but for now what I can say is... He's a some kind of spirit who protects the Amazonia. His past? He doesn't remember it at all to the point he's unable to speak, but surely he's related with the sun in some way (And that's how I've been calling him, Sunny boy, haha)
Leaving here the drawings I've done so far. I hope to bring more about him soon, and I hope you like him as much as I do! ❤️
WHAT THE FUCK!!!! I FORGOT TO REBLOG!!!!!!
I don't know how well oc art typically does on tumblr, but I'm dropping Coyoxauqui (based on the aztec goddess) here anyway, because she looks so cool actually
I KNOW I SWEAR LMAO BUT CLOSE ENOUGH IN SPIRIT IG???
thank uou for showing me your little white boy i do not like him can you put him away please
They make me feral
Huitzilopochtli and Coyolxauhqui -
The God of War, who acts as the Sun, Huitzilopochtli was threatened by his sister, Coyolxauhqui, Goddess of the Moon, when he was yet to be born. Along with her hundreds of siblings, the Gods of the Stars, Coyolxauhqui went to attack Huitzilopochtli on the day of his birth. When he came out of his mother’s womb, he flew with a snake covered in flames and beheaded and killed her, then proceeded to slay the rest of the Star Gods.

I remembered this post i felt like drawing them together ,two birds with with vast knowledge of weapons and strange births
Tecciztecatl my absolute beloved
had an interaction with another human being the other day which rememinded me of nanahuatzin and tecciztecatl so i made a quick doodle of nanahuatzin going through the same trials i had to withstand
im gonna draw these two in a higher quality sometime maybe idk
I recently drew Tlaloc! I thought it would be neat to add some more differing features I don’t see often in media so I gave him a cleft lip. I didn’t draw his legs because I’m lazy lolz. Bear with me on the feathers I’m working on learning how to draw them 😭
(Also forgot to draw a version with his mask but shhhhh-)
One man’s biohazard is another man’s funner biohazard

Kryptos: I think my eye is gonna pop
Bill, not paying attention: mhm…
He may or may not be wondering if his hat was always that big
Aztec mythology headcanons two!
Nanahuatzin uses mobility aids
Tecciztecatl plays with the children in Tlalocan (this is actually based off of something I found in mexicolore)
(So cute)
Tezcatlipoca and Quetzalcoatl used to drag Xipe Totec into their fights when they were little to ask who was in the right (I was Xipe Totec to my niece and nephew. So much chaos)
Quetzalcoatl doesn’t pick up the cues that he’s being an asshole
Tezcatlipoca has had a chair thrown at him before
Tecciztecatl has a plushie snail somewhere. He denies it when you ask. But it’s there.
Chalchiuhtlicue gives great hugs
Last list here!
Realized the flower is barely visible buwomp
Lmao drew this on a new moon
“Mom, am I still young?

I’ve had enough —Quetzalcoatl for some reason
