Wiracocha
This is my depiction of the mythological side of the sun god Inti. After researching him a little bit, I decided to draw him as the Inca people might have seen him. I was surprised how little information on the web there was about Inca mythology. Maybe I was just looking in the wrong places, but I found more on Toltecs, Olmecs and Zapotecs than I did on Incas. So I didn't have a full body description to work from, but this was the picture that came of my research.
Like so many of my pieces, this one came of a
doodle. I had worked for hours trying to come up with a decent sketch,
and nothing was working. I got frustrated and gave up. The next day waiting
for the bus I was drawing on a piece of scrap paper and this popped out.
I know there are things wrong with it, and there's a lot I need to do to
improve my male drawing skills, but for the most part I'm happy with it.
