Pegasus

I AM GOING TO WRITE ABOUT PEGASUS TODAY. PEGASUS IS ANOTHER MYTHICAL HORSE I HAVE ALREADY WRITTEN ABOUT THE UNICORN, AND I THINK THAT THE PEGASUS IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND REGAL. SO LETS GET TO IT.... PEGASUS (ANCIENT GREEK:, P GASOS, LATIN PEGASUS) IS ONE OF THE BEST KNOWN MYTHOLOGICAL CREATURES IN GREEK MYTHOLOGY. HE IS A WINGED DIVINE STALLION USUALLY DEPICTED AS PURE WHITE IN COLOR. HE WAS SIRED BY POSEIDON, IN HIS ROLE AS HORSE-GOD, AND FOALED BY THE GORGON MEDUSA. HE WAS THE BROTHER OF CHRYSAOR, BORN AT A SINGLE BIRTHING WHEN HIS MOTHER WAS DECAPITATED BY PERSEUS. GRECO-ROMAN POETS WRITE ABOUT HIS ASCENT TO HEAVEN AFTER HIS BIRTH AND HIS OBEISANCE TO ZEUS,KING OF THE GODS, WHO INSTRUCTED HIM TO BRING LIGHTNING AND THUNDER FROM OLYMPUS. FRIEND OF THE MUSES,PEGASUS IS THE CREATOR OF HIPPOCRENE, THE FOUNTAIN ON MT. HELICON. HE WAS CAPTURED BY THE GREEK HERO BELLEROPHON NEAR THE FOUNTAIN PEIRENE WITH THE HELP OF ATHENA AND POSEIDON. PEGASUS ALLOWS THE HERO TO RIDE HIM TO DEFEAT THE MONSTER, THE CHIMERA, BEFORE REALIZING MANY OTHER EXPLOITS. HIS RIDER, HOWEVER, FALLS OFF HIS BACK TRYING TO REACH MOUNT OLYMPUS. ZEUS TRANSFORMED HIM INTO THE CONSTELLATION PEGASUS AND PLACED HIM UP IN THE SKY. HYPOTHESES HAVE BEEN PROPOSED REGARDING ITS RELATIONSHIP WITH THE MUSES THE GODS ATHENA, POSEIDON, ZEUS, APOLLO, AND THE HERO PERSEUS. THE SYMBOLISM OF PEGASUS VARIES WITH TIME. SYMBOL OF WISDOM AND ESPECIALLY OF FAME FROM THE MIDDLE AGES UNTIL THE RENAISSANCE, HE BECAME ONE SYMBOL OF THE POETRY AND THE CREATOR OF SOURCES IN WHICH THE POETS DRAW INSPIRATION, PARTICULARLY IN THE 19TH CENTURY. PEGASUS IS THE SUBJECT OF A VERY RICH ICONOGRAPHY, ESPECIALLY THROUGH THE ANCIENT GREEK POTTERY AND PAINTINGS AND SCULPTURES OF THE RENAISSANCE. PERSONIFICATION OF THE WATER, SOLAR MYTH, OR SHAMAN MOUNT, CARL JUNG AND HIS FOLLOWERS HAVE SEEN IN PEGASUS A PROFOUND SYMBOLIC ESOTERIC IN RELATION TO THE SPIRITUAL ENERGY THAT ALLOWS TO ACCESS TO THE REALM OF THE GODS ON MOUNT OLYMPUS. IN THE 20TH AND 21ST CENTURY, HE APPEARED IN MOVIES, IN FANTASY, N VIDEO GAMES AND IN ROLE PLAY, WHERE BY EXTENSION. THE TERM "PEGASUS" (PLURAL: "PEGASI") IS OFTEN USED TO REFER TO ANY WINGED HORSE. THE POET HESIOD PRESENTS A FOLK ETYMOLOGY IF THE NAME PEGASUS AS DERIVED FROM P G "SPRING WELL" "THE PEGAI OF OKEANOS, WHERE HE WAS BORN." A PROPOSED ETYMOLOGY OF THE NAME IS LUWIAN PIHASSAS, MEANING "LIGHTNING" AND PIHASSASSI, A LOCAL LUWIAN-HITTIE NAME IS SOUTHERN CILICIA OF A WEATHER GOD REPRESENTED WITH THUNDER AND LIGHTNING. THE PROPONENTS OF THIS ETYMOLOGY ADDUCE PEGASUS 'ROLE, REPORTED AS EARLY AS HESIOD, AS BRINGER OF THUNDERBOLTS TO ZEUS. IT WAS FIRST SUGGESTED IN 1952 AND REMAINS WIDELY ACCEPTED BUT ROBIN LANE FOX (200) HAS CRITICIZED IT AS IMPLAUSIBLE. ACCORDING TO LEGEND, EVERYWHERE THE WINGED HORSE STRUCK HIS HOOF TO THE EARTH, AN INSPIRING SPRING BRUST FORTH. ONE OF THESE SPRINGS WAS UPON THE MUSES' MOUNT HELICON, THE HIPPOCRENE ("HORSE SPRING") OPENED, ANTONINUS LIBERALIS SUGGESTED, AT THE BEHEST OF POSEIDON TO PREVENT THE MOUNTAIN SWELLING WITH RAPTURE AT THE SONG OF THE MUSES; ANOTHER WAS AT TROEZEN. HESIOD RELATES HOW PEGASUS WAS PEACEFULLY DRINKING FROM A SPRING WHEN THE HERO BELLEROPHON CAPTURED HIM. HESIOD ALSO SAYS PEGASUS CARRIED THUNDERBOLTS FOR ZEUS. THERE ARE SEVERAL VERSIONS OF THE BIRTH OF THE WINGED STALLION AND HIS BROTHER CHRYSAOR IN THE FAR DISTANT PLACE AT THE EDGE OF EARTH, HESIOD;S "SPRINGS OF OCEANUS, WHICH ENCIRCLES THE INHABITED EARTH WHERE PERSEUS FOUND MEDUSA: ONE IS THAT THEY SPRANG FROM THE BLOOD ISSUING FROM MEDUSA'S NECK AS PERSEUS WAS BEHEADING HER, SIMILAR TO THE MANNER IN WHICH ATHENA WAS BORN FROM THE HEAD OF ZEUS. IN ANOTHER VERSION, WHEN PERSEUS BEHEADED MEDUSA, THEY WERE BORN OF THE EARTH, FED BY THE GORGON'S BLOOD, PAIN AND SEA FOAM IMPLYING THAT POSEIDON HAD INVOLVEMENT IN THEIR MAKING. THE LAST VERSION BEARS RESEMBLANCE TO THE BIRTH OF APHRODITE, DAUGHTER OF ZEUS. THE WINGED HORSE THAT HAS PROVIDED AN INSTANT RECOGNIZABLE CORPORATES LOGO OR EMBLEM OF INSPIRATION. PEGASUS IN YU-GI-OH! IS AN EVIL MAN WHO WANTS TO STEAL THE EXODYSSIAN PECIES. THE SOUTH AMERICAN COUNTRY OF ECUADOR LAUNCHED ITS FIRST A SATELLITE, NAMED "PEGASO" (PEGAUS IN SPANISH) ON APRIL 26, 2013. PEGASUS SEIVA, THE CENTRAL CHARACTER IN THE ANIME SERIES SAINT SEIVA, (KNIGHTS OF THE ZODIAC) TAKES HIS NAME "PEGASUS" FROM THE PEGASUS BRONZE CLOTH HE USES TO PRODUCE HIS ARMOR. PEGASUS AIRLINES (TURKISH: PEGASUS HAVA TAMAC LA. ) IS A LOW-COST AIRLINE HEADQUARTERS IN THE KURTK Y AREA OF PENDIK, ISTANBUL, TURKEY. PEGASUS IN MY LITTLE PONY ARE PONIES CHARACTERIZED BY THEIR WINGS AND THEIR ABILITY TO FLY, WALK ON CLOUDS, AND CONTROL THE WEATHER.

ok, now for part 2 of my comic collection. i know i said an hour later, but things changed.

so now heres part 2

Sup. Since I happen to be alone at my old home this weekend, I decided I want to upload some more pictures from my sketch book. I picked out like the top 10 ones from the sketchbook. Most of them happen to copy an art style of some of my favorite artist.

Just so you guys know, I don't intend to upload any pictures of the Bigger sketch book used for class drawing sessions. because1.) most of them are just rough sketches from trying to copy life objects.2.) too big to scan in a scanner.3.) the best ones are left at the art building. There was a class assignment to bring our 10 best drawings to show to class, and then she wanted to keep them. she told us we could come back and bring them with us some other day, but i never felt like coming back, so...yeah.

these aren't all the drawings, the others happens to be rough sketches, or just felt incomplete.

Combat Suit by H1-5 [Knights of the Old Republic Mods]

Holty12345 comes back to us here at KotOR Files with a modification for the first Knights of the Old Republic game, which basically gives the player a custom skinned combat suit. As the author admits, the reskin of the combat suit is not the best; however the mod was mainly for the author to learn how to script items into the game. You can get the combat suit in game after a conversation with a Twilek dancer (see readme for more details); all in all the scripting is sound, so if you fancy a rath - Full Post
