#charioteer

When I made this illustration I was a little scared as usual, but well, as you know, my Ganymede is an adult - and at this point he's immortal from a long time so he's even older - and perfectly fine with his position in Olympus. But I made these extra panels too for the funzies.

I'm having a severe migraine from a week now so forgive me if i didn't managed to color them. I hope you like them. <3
