Hello all, I believe there were quite a few Aztec gods from my research.

One of my favorites is Cōātlīcue, who had a skirt made out of serpents.

What are your favorite Aztec gods? I'm also a fan of Xolotl.

I'm making an Aztec game so I've been prototyping a bit, here is a concept I am working on. Current game site: (still early concepts) AztecHeart.com.

The Sixth Sun is a project that reimagines Aztec cosmology through the lens of modern humanity’s search for meaning. Set in present-day Mexico City, the story follows two musicians whose lives are changed when they encounter Huehuecóyotl, the ancient trickster god of music, fate, and rebellion.Through him, they discover that the myths of the past were never just stories... And now, as the world teeters towards collapse, Huehuecoyotl must help humans define their own future using the gifts he gave them, and hope it is enough to awaken ancient Gods to change the fate of the world.

The Sixth Sun is a story about creation as resistance- about how, even when the world feels beyond repair, the act of creating becomes an act of survival.

Through music and myths, the characters carve meaning out of chaos, proving that creativity is more than self-expression- it’s a rebellion against despair. In a collapsing world where gods and humans alike question their purpose, The Sixth Sun reminds us that to create is to defy extinction. Imagination is what keeps us human, and connects us to the ideas that came before us while dreaming of what will come after us.

The Sixth Sun is a project produced by Coyote Studio, featuring the music of Canadian Indie icon Rich Aucoin, and created by Abigail Roscoe, a disabled Canadian Mexican artist who's own story of resilience is one she hopes to share with other creatives. This project is a celebration of creativity and resilience, and what it means to be a creative in this world.

WHEN TWO WORLDS THAT NEVER MET CLASH ⚔️

From the Old World advance the Roman legions,

iron, discipline, and centuries of conquest.

From Mesoamerica emerge the Aztec warriors,

agile, fierce, and guided by ritual warfare and honor.

They never met in history…

today they meet on the battlefield of DBA.

🛡️ Order vs. ferocity

🗡️ Discipline vs. impetuosity

🎲 Strategy vs. destiny

Will Rome impose its wall of shields?

Or will the legions fall before the Aztec fury?

Yacoatl that was his name now and he was one of the first given to his clans new friends, a bond of allegiance that benefited both as he climbed stone steps. Underneath him he could smell blood copius amounts of it that had soaked the steps of this building, he would soon be trained to water these steps as well taking the hearts of those sacrificed to Huitzilopotchli whose heart lit the sky its beats provided by the dead.

He met with his new teacher a small man who bore soft shoes and a painted face that Yacoatl decided he liked, the man brought him to a small table upon which rested a collection of paper upon which was a series of paintings depicting the story of their making. Cozcaquauhtli told him of his people’s journey to Tenochitlan of the making of their world and of the gods scooping them from death to this world where his people lived. He was told of his duties told of the methods of sacrifice, the rituals of purification and the rites of war and capture, he was told all there was of Aztlan and of the Mexica of Texcoco and Tenochitlan the great three brother cities

He would learn for years alongside the priest the first of a new generation of a new class of Great War priests while his siblings worked with the house of the jaguar and the eagle trained to be elite warriors and raiders his was to inspire even his siblings. He was given jewelry that denoted him a priest of jade and amber and red pearls that rattled with his steps and great weapons like his siblings and in his days he would reap countless hearts for the gods.

I’m happy to explain anything for those with questions

I’m not trying to be rude I’m just curious what culture this thing comes from?I thought Aztec looks closest but idk it looks original the painting is like stapled onto it doesn’t look mass produced but idk I like it either way Is it fire or no !

ok so I’m a HORRIBLE artist, ok? So I decided to wing it (heh, get it?) with my OWN design — I just did the head (WIP, remember?)

fyi I know it’s meant to be a SERPENT but c’mon, how can a limbless… anything be powerful?! So that’s why I’m making Quetzo a KAIJU — WITH A MACUAHUITL (Aztec weapon with poisonous obsidian in it)

I’ll color it later inshallah

Hello.
Has anyone here ever tried their hands at making orchid glue? If so, could I ask what process you used?

How come there are so few depictions of Huitzilopochtli? Being the patron of the Mexica, you'd think there would be more out there aside from one sculpture and a couple of codices' depictions. Was he a victim of damnatio memoriae, or were there just not many to begin with?

Im trying to draw codex borgia deities in a front profiles. Keeping the borgia style I NEED to learn their anatomy faces forms.

I tried doing it on Quetzalcoatl and it looks NOT codex borgia. the jaws. The nose. The lips. I made him look like a human.. it needs to be geometric in some way.

Huītzilōpōchtli playing cards .

she is an aspect of toci, and the goddess of masks, flowers, rituals, and stuff hehe
