#EPIC Polyphemus

[wolfatemybaby]

HAIII! I finished his design in December but kept adding stuff bc Polyphemus felt unfinished so here (he still does but it's fine, I can always change his design later in life)

I took inspiration from @sugar_dells ‘ Polyphemus design. I also referenced orcs, specifically their teeth for his design.

To relate him back to Poseidon I added: a horse’s eye, rock formations and webbed hands/toes, moss freckles, muddy feet. The design for the feet was made on a whim. He accidentally was given the same feet as my old trasformers oc, Downside. The spikes on the calfs and all!

A long time ago, I was in VC and my friends were talking about giving Polyphemus hair and I pitched him having a mullet, and it hasn’t left my mind since.

Like Aeolus his design was easy, the drawing itself is what gave me a lil trouble. And as a treat here is my uh initial sketch of his design!!

Designs subject to change ofc

[fandomsandflyingstingrays]

Actually going insane over all the melodic motifs in the Ithaca Saga because what do you mean "keep your head down, he's aiming for the torches" is sung the same way as "keep your friends close and your enemies closer", what do you mean Odysseus's name is sung in the danger motif the same way Polyphemus's was, what do you mean the danger motif plays when Penelope asks Odysseus to move the bed, what do you mean Athena's motif mixes with Legendary when Telemachus arrives, what do you mean an instrumental of Little Wolf plays when he fights the suitors, what do you MEAN-

Epic the Musical on shuffle:

Suffering -> My Goodbye -> Thunder Bringer

(ooc: WAIT-why that make a good storyline though?? My brain is brainstorming :00)

I tried this and got:

Luck Runs Out -> Full Speed Ahead -> Polyphemus

Shepherd/Stayed back Polites

Okay so immediately, I feel the need to explain my Polyphemus design- I was gonna make him more like the depictions other Epic artists do, but after looking up a bundle of references for cyclops’ this general design kept appearing. After a while I finally thought it’d be interesting to lean in this direction since I never see it. Okie! General story time:

So in this version, Ody still shot the sheep, but before Polyphemus could drink the wine Polites interrupts and shows he aided the sheep. Therefore, it was still alive. Polyphemus is conflicted cause now his reason to kill the crew has vanished, but he still wants payback of some sort. So he settles on keeping Polites and letting the other men go. A few months into living there, Poseidon does eventually show up and is confused why this random man is here. But the two end up becoming friends and perchance even romantic >w> You will suffer my PosePoli propaganda whether ya like it or not. Ody and Eury do occasionally show up just to visit Polites, but it’s kinda rare.

Here are my most recent doodles of them:

And then doodles from whenever I first made the au:

Manwhore AU headcanon

I like to believe Manwhore Ody got home shortly after the war ended because he didn't have to deal with any of the bullshit that canon Ody has to deal with.

Like imagine: if only he seduced his way out of the whole Polyphemus situation, he wouldn't have pissed off Poseidon, meaning he would've got home pretty much immediately.

I'm not even saying he had to fuck Poly (he'd die), but he could've used his babygirl looks or something. Be like "I'm sorry about your sheep, pookie *bats eyelashes*", but no. He just had to abandon all reason and blind the cyclops before telling him his full legal name and address.

ANGST FOR AFTER SURVIVE AND BEFORE RUTHLESSNESS

Sad asf.. I’m sorry guys..

“Mother!! Mother!!!” The voice rang out loud.. bloody tears running down his empty socket. He was crawling around.. looking for someone, something.. a way to move around.. his sheep.. his club.. the same one that had fallen from the gaping socket of his eye. “Mother please!!” He screamed out with a cry. More of a child than a cyclops.

But the god came. He held his son’s face and frowned. “Shhhh.. it’s okay phemus.. I’m here.. It’s okay..” He said as his son cried, bloody tears running down the gods hard chest. His son, his boy, his baby.. someone hurt him.. he rubbed behind his ears and held his face. “Who hurts you my boy, who has done such a crime as to stab you in the eye.. whose men are these that lay dead across the cave floors?”

“Whom has hurt my baby?” He asked his voice cracking as he held him.

“He called himself nobody.. said that was his name. But he lied..” He sniffled and cried into his father’s shoulder, the god holding him and rubbing his back. “He killed my sheep. He took my things.. he took my eye, mother.. I can’t see..” He cried out as his stubby fingers gripped his father’s back.

“Tell me his name, boy.. he will pay for his crimes. I will make sure he loses himself to the madness of the sea, he will watch them all die before I kill him myself..” He whispered and soothed. “I just need his name..”

One last sniffle from the cyclops before his empty socket looked up at the god of tides.. his mother..

“Odysseus of Ithaca.”

Epictober Day 6: Polyphemus

“You killed my sheep… my favorite sheep…”

HOW IRONIC I FINISHED THIS JUST AS JORGE RELEASED THE VENGEANCE SAGA TRAILER

If anyone is curious, I wanted to make sure my epic monsters actually looked… well… monstruous. I didnt want to do the tradicional cyclop: big man with one eye. I wanted something animalistic, and being Polyphemus a son of Poseidon I thought “why not a marine animal?”

And then it hit me: SEA TURTLES. Big sea turtle with cyclopy (common in turtles actually). Hell yeah.

Polyphemus when they killed his sheep (his favourite sheep):
