Get ready with me to build a giant wooden horse

Did I just spend 3 days drawing that eyeliner meme? Yes. Yes, I did.

I'm very late to this year's inktober but nevertheless I'm here))) I decided to combine the official prompt list with the classicstober here, specifically prompt 15 - dagger and prompt 20 - Odysseus. I don't know, if I will draw any other prompts, but this one was fun and I hope you like it :)

The dagger was based on Mycenaean daggers in the national archeological museum in Athens and some Mycenaean dagger reproductions I saw, the scene depicted is Odysseus hunting Athena' boar. I hc this dagger was either a gift from Athena herself or from Autolycus, I haven't decided yet.

#I'm not sure how historically accurate is that background. but it is what it is ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯#odysseus #“my man's not letting this war keep him from feeling gorgeous” (quote by @dannymotta)#“felt cute. might burn a city later”#“grwm for a stealth mission with my best buddy - the king of Argos”#tagamemnon #the iliad #epic the musical #epic the musical fanart #greek mythology #inktober #classicstober #inktober 2023 #classicstober23 #my art tag
