March Doodles - He Returns from the Sea (nsfw)
🕑 Added 2020-03-08 18:01:00 +0000 UTCPrompt - Arturo Chavez: How about some Aztec mythology! I love your take on mythology and I would love to see more diverse divinities/monsters— how about the sun god Quetzalcoatl cloaked in light with traditional garb riding an Aztec warrior or another god, like tlaloc god of rain— the contrast between a sun god and a rain god would be such a cool image—plus it would be more brown boys ☺️. If u have any questions or would like references to traditional Aztec garb I can help, but m Mexican myself. Please and gracias 🙏🏾
I based this on two Quetzacoatl myths, which I hopefully read accurate versions of; one is that Quetzacoatl saved mankind and brought about the current age of men (the Fifth Sun) by bleeding on the bones of the men of lost ages; the other is that the end of Quetzacoatl saw him disappearing across the sea on a raft of snakes, and his return will bring a new beginning :)) Here is Quetzacoatl returning and rewarding a warrior who never stopped hoping for his return ♥ I hope my version of him is alright~
I didn't know a lot about this mythology so this is based on some pretty light beginners research so please yell at me if I did anything super wrong!
Arturo sent me the following references: Link and Link
I also used these specific references:
