This Is An Idea Of Composition Made Up Of Ody's Bow And The Flowers That Show Up In The Odyssey : I Was

This is an idea of composition made up of Ody's bow and the flowers that show up in the Odyssey : i was going to mainly use Anticlea elegans, Galanthus nivalis(moly) and Olea europea (olive). ( Anticlea, Circe and Penelope, they were the ones that helped him ) , the idea was that of a bow with sprouting plants, a big olive surronded of Anticlea and Moly closer to the viewer; but the middle was going to ended up bare and it reminded of a pond so I added Lotus (Nelumbo nucifera).

This is the scketch i came up with:D and the final drawing it's bound to change from this.

The references are from Pinterest/Google

I May use the idea before this but made it with perspective from the bottom to the top, with a huge olive tree in the middle flanked by Anticleas and Molly closer

It's getting tough and I think the first picture captures best the felling of what i try to do, what do you think?

I might add lemons.......

But are we going to go the english route or the Spanish? One or the two surnames? Because one is quicker bit seems like siblings, hahahaha

Sorry I'm stupid it seams italian and greek names have only one usually being a patronimic name more than a surname!.

For Odysseus I would try one ending in -atos (cause that seems the suffix of Cephalonia (Ithaca's supposed surname) and one ending in -akos for Penelope (the one from Laconia (Sparta's region) but the begining I'm not sure, hahahah

I SAW THAT IT'S SO PRETTY <3

It's them. Them. <3

Ah random post and it becomes the sweetest headcanon I have seen T T, Thank you for deeping the post and gracing us with this! I'll try to draw the tat as soon as I can have my tablet!

Now Odysseus getting inked is one of the most random and in a way cute headcannons ever! 😆

Like:

Agamemnon: Hey, Menelaus. Where is Odysseus? Cannot find him anywhere

Menalaus: Probably by the ships. It was resupply day today.

Agamemnon: But that was hours ago. What on earth is he doing?

Menelaus: Yeah you are probably right let's go and check it out

*They find Odysseus on the beach sitting on a rock while a Scythian probably covered in tattoos of his people is tattooing his upper arm*

Agamemnon: Odysseus, what in the gods' names are you doing?

Odysseus: Oh, can't you see? I am getting a tattoo from this man. He is very good actually.

Agamemnon: Seriously?! We are at war and this is a military camp!

Odysseus: Don't worry, he's cool. I checked.

Menelaus: But weren't you wounded a couple of days ago? Surely shouldn't you be taking it easy? I know they call you "equal to gods" but you ain't immortal

Odysseus: No worries. I am accustomed to pain. This is nothing.

Agamemnon: Even so! That is not a king's behavior. What is wrong with you?!

Odysseus: Why not? Besides look!

*shows his half-done olive branch tattoo*

Odysseus: Olive for my homeland, flowers for my wife and the bittersweet fruit is my dear Telemachus. I want my family with me. I might die tomorrow and my body will not be buried to my land. I want my family with me to the funeral pyre...

Menelaus: *sniffing loudly* You know, brother, you have to admit that is the most fucking adorable thing ever!

Agamemnon: Humph! Whatever! *turns around to hide a manly tear*

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Even better imagine the funny and adorable interaction with Penelope! Hahahahaha like:

Penelope: *sees the tat when she prepares Odysseus for bed* Darling...what is this exactly?

Odysseus: *innocently looking for he had forgotten he had it* Oh, this? I got it at war...

Penelope: But but...this isn't exactly the most...noble behavior isn't it?

Odysseus: Well...it wasn't very "noble" where I was, Penelope but still look here...

*touching the branch*

Odysseus: Olive branch for our homeland...our bed and palace...

*tracing the tiny flowers*

Odysseus: Flowers for my beautiful wife, whom I longed for, for years

*pointing the olives*

Odysseus: the sweet fruit of my dear Telemachus whom I never saw growing and this...

*touching a tiny detail that looks like the silhouette of a bird*

Odysseus: The bird, the swallow coming home is me. I swore to come back to you no matter what I would need to do. Back to our land and our sweet Telemachus

*Penelope smiling now touched and embraces his neck*

Penelope: I still am not sure that I like this idea but it looks good because it is you who has it...

Sorry guys hahahaha 😆 random cheesy brainstorming. Blame my dialog with @aaronofithaca05 for it hahahaha 😆

Diomedes: You tried to stab me.

Odysseus: OVER THE PALLADIUM! That's how important you're to me.

Athena: Interesting, let the man talk.

Diomedes: He's playing with your pride, Athena. Don't listen to him.

Athena: Be more lenient. You know he has problems.

Diomedes: He has- I've been nothing but obedient to you but "he has problems"! Your favor, that's what he has.

Athena: I have no favorites. I let you hurt two gods.

Diomedes: You commanded me to hurt two gods.

Athena: How would you like to hurt Aphrodite again?

Diomedes: No, I want Odysseus punished.

Athena: Fine. You get to your home safe. And you get home after ten horrible years.

Diomedes: Deal.

Odysseus: No deal. I want to see my wife!

Athena: No, do not look at me with those eyes. You've been nasty out there.

Odysseus: I'm not nasty, I'm family driven.

Diomedes: *sighing* goddess, you're smiling.

Athena: He's adorable!

i miss themmm
