Description
When I posted my Anubis pic someone commented and said Anubis was his favourite Ancient Egyptian God and probably because he was born under his sign.This intrigued me, so I went to find out which was mine.
It wasn't Anubis (although he's still my favourite anyway
He is usually depicted having the head of an ibis.
So I figured I'd give him a go.
Here's my version of him.

I always thought his neck was a tad thinner like a heron.
Not bad though

I know Hapi is sometimes depicted with the head of a baboon.

I never drew him but if you do a search for "Hapi baboon" on google image search you'll find a bunch.

Love the colors and shading. By the way, the Greek name of Djehuty is usually written as "Thoth," not "Thot." (It is pronounced "Thot.")

I spelled it Toth not Thot
And yeah I know it's often spelled Thoth, I just picked a random one of the popular spellings since DA doesn't support hieroglyphics

I'm Osar it seems. Oh fun.
Nice picture of Jehuti there. I've never seen him black before, but it looks very good on him.

Thanks! Yep I based him on the black ibis like in this image I found [link]
I didn't stay very true to the proportions either. The ancient Egyptians tended to put an ibis sized head and neck on a human body which I just couldn't bring myself to do heheh.

Thanks!
And lol! You managed to find one which says mine is Anubis afterall
Sept 21 seems to be a weird date for any type of astrology. I'm always something different on every site.
I guess that explains my erratic behavior

Yeah I know.
Figures right? The one time I predict I won't do anything creative for a while, inspiration just hits me square in the face

How did you figure out what sign you were born under? I've never heard of this before and I want to find out. (I want to find out if I'm born under something cool. I'm a pisces but that just isn't cool. It's boring and I don't even like water!)
He looks really cool! I've never heard of this god before, but he looks awesome.
(He also sounds like a cool god to be born under!)

Your Toth and Anubis make a great pair! Both have such vibrant colours.
How did you find out which Egyptian god you were born under?

Thanks a lot!
I just did a Google search on Egyptian Astrology.
It works the same, with birth dates. Unfortunately it also tends to vary per page with the borderline dates. I've got that problem with the normal zodiac too.
