This pic took me a while to finish. Done on Painter 9 and Photoshop CS. This is one of my new painting style, more realism as you can see. And it�s quite difficult to do.
This is Sobek the crocodile egipcian god, creator of the nile, son of Neit. Lord of the water and the people were afraid of his Fierceness.
This is an anthro version of this god, and as you may know he was represented as a human with a croco�s head or simply a crocodile. And this god is supposed to have a crown, that I didn�t do, because I�m lazy.
I hope you like it.
A little quiz: What is the difference between a Crocodile and an alligator?

Huge body, looks like someone who will really tone your ass up if you mess with him.
Coloring is amazing, looks incredibly realistic a wish I could do that =p.
Kickass dude
thats really good by the way...
I have a pet alligator and his teeth dont show when his mouth is closed!
the only thing that i would suggest is maknig the tail the same base color, not make the shadow near the belly button green and probably make some highlights on the the pump where the wood part goes threw the head of it.
but ya, very outstanding <3
The tail was a mistake, I shouldn�t have left it for the end. I don�t get the other recomendations.
*rapes him*
Oh and alligators tend to be more placid (and I think they're more tolerable of colder climates), while crocs are more aggressive and tend to grow larger.
And thank you again for the last part of your comment.
Your skills are amazing!
Quite realistic indeed (like most of your other pictures). You step away from the more common cel-shading style and go towards what the eye would really see. And ya' make so many tiny additions! *Has to squint hard to make out the little wrinkles of color that are the tell-tale sign of shading/texture*
It all blends so nicely together, it makes for a rather fetching picture. Stout little crocodilian, though, ain't he? ^_^
One question: does Sobek normally posess an axe, or was that your creativity adding in a detail? Its presence does lend itself to noticing the god more, in any case.
About your question, a weapon on that character is to make him more personal, I could have add him a Hammer, or a aegyptian god crown. It�s a personal choice, so I added him a big weapon like an axe (he would look strange with a common sword)
