Hermes Godform

So, here is the godform I worked up for Hermes. I chose an earthy color palette, and, conspicuously, darker hair for this particular form. He is also shown here with longer hair (rather than the usual shorter locks of extreme volume) and with both chiton and chlamys (rather than being mostly naked with fabric weirdly draped over one arm).

The work is derivative of an image on an Attic Red Figure Lykethos. The god is shown with long, dark hair, and much more Eastern features. A certain air of mirth, mischief and misdirection hangs over the facial expression as well as the body language. The eye can’t quite tell whether he’s coming or going.
