Well, I don't have any more Greek artwork at the moment, so I'll just post some stuff I've done from other Mythologies (mostly Celtic). Not entirely on-topic, but drawing Greek Gods takes FOREVER.
I just finished this one a while ago, forgive the five minute colouring job. It's not a satyr, but a Urisk. Urisks are Scottish goblins who live near waterfalls and ponds. They're lonely critters, desperate for company but scaring off any potential friends with their ugly looks.
A Brownie named Rug Randolph. Brownies are British domestic spirits who live in human households and do the housework when nobody's looking. There are still families in England today that claim to have their own ancestral Brownie.
The Wulver is native to the Shetland Isles. It looks like a vicious werewolf, but it's actually a friendly hobgoblin who spends his time fishing, and sometimes leaves his catch on the windowsills of poor families.
Trows are a breed of Troll that live on the Orkney Isles, noted for being unusually small compared to their giant Scandinavian cousins.
Sun Wukong, my interpretation of the Monkey King from Chinese folklore.
A modern variation on Friar Rush, a devilish spirit who tempts monks and friars to lead debaucherous lives.
Cernunnos, the Horned God. Originally a Gaulish deity, traces of his worship have been found throughout the Celtic world.
A Leananshee named Suanach, my version of one of ~ContessaLeandra~'s characters. Leananshees are like a cross between a succubus and a muse. They prey on young artists, inspiring them but draining their life and beauty at the same time. Purportedly this is the reason why so many passionate creative people die young.
A young Irish Wyrm named Rhys, with a body structure that I wanted to seem canine.
Mictecacihuatl, the Aztec Queen of the Netherworld. Aztec deities are...scary.
Puck, or Robin Goodfellow, the shrewd and knavish sprite from Shakespeare's comedy. Stupid me, I saved the image at that size and then lost the original. Ah well.
A troop of Goblins which I based loosely on myself (right) and two of my friends. I was going to do a comedic comic about the trio as bumbling minions to an undead magician during the Jacobean era, but haven't found the time. The background isn't mine, by the way, but mashed up from a bunch of pics I found on Google.
Here's a conceptual for one of them. Mooch is actually a Gnome, pretending to be a goblin in order to fit in:
Kishlee, my Pooka character. Heck, there's too much I could write about this one, so I'll just leave it at that. Here he is playing for a gathered assembly of Pixies, Gnomes and Salamanders.
Here's a more detailed sketch of Kish.
