So, in order, last week’s drawing came first, and I really dug what was going on…
and because in my mind every character in every picture I draw has a story, I went searching for their story:
so I actually found that at some point in egyptian history there was Actually a Pharaoh named Djehuty (aka Toth)… so obviously I decided that he wasn’t named after the god so much as was seen as a physical embodiment of the god (what he is or is not is never really the point).
but as he grows older and falls in love, he slowly becomes more and more like an Ibis, and eventually he gives up his short reign as Pharaoh because birds do not make effective leaders.
the end… maybe
