Hermes' new statuette is complete! Except for writing/inscribing the votive description on the back and sealing the paint, that as. I made the previous one around this time last year and the improvement is. stark lol (comparison photos below the cut). I'm not offering it yet but now it's ready to go when the time comes!
#still can't do bodies....someday#someday I will be able to fulfill the Vision I've had in my head#felt like I should get started on this a couple months ago during a tarot pull related to the thing I'd asked for help with#and you know what Hermes? you were correct#this is far less stressful than the alternative (making it w/in 3 months of the thing I'd asked for help with being fulfilled)#considering 1) how down to the wire the last votive I made for him was and 2) the truly atrocious amount of free time I have atm#doing it *now* is the smarter way to do it#considering writing the votive inscription after the thing is fulfilled#it makes sense and also fulfills the 'i'll complete the offering w/in 3 months of receiving [thing]' promise by inscribing & sealing#&. you know. ✨ completing ✨ the statuette then instead of now#helpol#hellenic polytheism#hellenic pagan#hermes#hermes deity#handmade offerings#votive offerings#hellenisticismos#hellenisticism#hellenism#pagans of tumblr#art#coriander says#air dry clay#handmade statues#paganblr#theoi#theoi worship
