Ancient Deities And Mythological Creatures: 3D Models I Created With A Modern Twist (26 Pics)
I was thinking - what would it look like if the ancient Slavic gods were represented in Roman-style sculptures? So I created these 3D models and then added some modern attributes to their supernatural abilities (God and Goddess of thunder got a boom-stick).
Then I continued creating their Roman and Hellenic counterparts, and ancient Egyptian gods were next!

Mars
Every time I make a breakthrough in the creative or technical aspect of my art piece, it becomes my favorite piece at that moment. But if I had to choose one, it would be Persephone. It was made for a special person in my life and it was the first one of this series. The time spent on every piece usually varies, sometimes it’s very fast, sometimes takes a whole week.
Persephone
Morana
The ideas for my work tend to come on their own, when I’m just relaxed, surfing the web, and not trying too hard to think of something creative. I think the best way to get good ideas is to take abstinence of visual sufficiency for some time and then look at some great art. I usually write down my ideas or make a sketch if they are more complex. It can be hard to sit down and start working, but once I get into the flow, it’s a great time, almost meditative.
Hades
The Philosopher
Like every artist, I face creative block sometimes, but in my opinion, the more you think about it, the harder it gets. The best way I deal with it is working on something else, which could be as simple as raking the leaves in my yard. For I am a sculptor, Michelangelo is very influential to me. I also get inspiration from Benvenuto Cellini, Bernini, Caravaggio, Salvador Dali. Also, when I saw the art of H.R. Giger and Beksinski, I realized the complete freedom of creativity one can have.
Medusa
Vesna
Prints of my creations are currently available on clothes, phone cases, and even bedding. As for the future of my work, I might change up my style of art. This current 3D style of creating is everywhere now, the art space is very saturated with it and it’s getting a bit boring. I always want to keep things fresh.
The Temple
Devana
Mermaid
Perun Gromovnik
I looked at this and thought if Percy Jackson and the Lighting Theif
Fallen Empire
Satyr
Lesovik
Alkonost
Hathor
Venus
Perperuna
Centurion
Svetovid
The Sphinx
Cerberus
Koshchei
Chhinnamasta
Rugevit
These are super cool. I like how they look like they could have come from the times when these myths were born, if from another dimension.
Aren't you the artist that makes the art cover for the singer Apashe? It looks almost the same. It's simply amazing, great job!
I really enjoyed looking at these Centurion cracked me up a lot of the others were funny as well keep up the good work!
I never comment on this thing but these are stunning! Do you do print outs?
Breathtaking! Love the modern twists. Would love to see some Irish/Celtic deities, like the Morrigan or Lugh of the Silver arm. Thanks for sharing.
These are truly amazing. A very unique and creative interpretation of these famous characters. Definitely going to show them to my students when we study Greek Mythology next year. Just wondering what the dimensions are? It's hard to tell if they're five feet or five inches tall. Regardless, really well done.
These are beautiful!! Love your style, the combination of white and gold is simply brilliant, makes it a signature style!!
Are these actual objects or just images of 3D models? In any case, incredible work
All of these are absolutely gorgeous, and this post was also enlightening to see some deities I had never heard of before. Definitely love Morana and Chhinnamasta!
There are almost no words to describe how beautiful these are. Persephone is my favorite.
Beautiful. I am quite a sucker for myth and I love your ideas of combining myths with modern world
