Turns out not all problems can be solved with alcohol. Dionysos lied

True lol

He was drunk when he said that you cant hold an intoxicated man to his word

[@DastupidCow]

SEE i resonate with Poly cuz if someone broke into my house, killed my pet, then offered wine as an apology I also would wreck their shit

[@jiado6893]

You created a Polyphemus design that actually has him wearing sheep’s wall. Showing why he keeps them all around. If he was just devouring them, it wouldn’t make sense to draw him getting weepy over any of them being killed.

[@Crossaix]

I love how you show the dead sheep when Odysseus says "no bloodshed in here today" at 2:40

[@thatfairy_mina]

2:26 i LOVE how when he took a sip his pupils widened, it gives *drug effects* 2:33 WHEN HE FELL, omg, ty for pointing out how *drunk* he is rn

[@joseeduardocarreira198]

I just wanna express how much I *L O V E* you Polyphemus design. He's not just a guy with only one eye, you made him into an actual MONSTER. I love how he has the wool cape, plus sheep-like eye and the horns make me think that the reason he loves his sheep so much is because they share those features.

[@EmjiAmsdaughter]

Oooo, giving Polyphemus a sheep pupil was a nice touch!

[@Pseudoaquanaut]

I love your cyclops design. Feels like something both monstrous and terrifying, but also human. Feels more original than the weird “single tiny normal eye on a giant human” thing that you find in stuff like Percy Jackson and DnD

[@Synthesyn342]

You very well have already have seen this, but if based off of what you said I think you’d like mircsy’s depiction of Polyphemus

[@romecarlislecifra5982]

​@@Synthesyn342 True, when i was drawing my design for my cyclops i took some inspirations from mircsys, i added horns, i made the legs bend but no hooves, and for originality i made so that when the cyclops opens his mouth the eye cracks and burrows deep and the teeth retracts, only flaw with this is that their blind but i like it.

[@amberx1273]

01:58 I LOVE HOW EURYLOCHUS SHOOTS THROUGH ODYSSEUS' CAPE WTF ITS SO SMOOTH. also polyphemus look looks like a little chicken helppp 02:13

[@LunaRunaSeluna]

I am utterly inlove with the poly design! I love that you also refrence that he was known to use his sheep for clothing! And how tone deaf oddy was with the "no blood sheded".. and you see the poor sheep

[@Catenfur]

Aw the cyclop’s eyes tearing at the loss of his sheep. He’s so adorable. I love how his eye resembles that of a sheeps/goat’s too

[@Sarah-Has-Arrived]

I love the detail of the cyclops’s pupil being horizontal like a horse’s, giving him that connection to Poseidon, who is the God of Horses! 🐴👁️💜

[@thatfairy_mina]

not to be mean! his pupils are actually made to be like a sheep and poseidon is the god of the sea!

[@Sarah-Has-Arrived]

@@thatfairy_mina If his pupils are meant to be like a sheep’s I can see that! Both a sheep and a horse’s pupils are horizontal after all. I only went with horse since, while he owns sheep, Poseidon is his father. Because while he IS the god of the sea, that doesn’t mean that is the ONLY thing he presides over! Gods usually have many domains they were associated with. Poseidon was the god of the sea, earthquakes, floods, drought, aaaaand… horses! 😁🐴 It’s why, in many animatics, you’ll see horse references when dealing with Poseidon. But, like I said, I can definitely see if the artist was going for making the pupils horizontal to resemble a sheep instead of a horse, since most people associate Polyphemus with his sheep. 😊

[@thatfairy_mina]

@Sarah-Has-Arrived Oh! I am so sorry, I did not know that. Please forgive!

[@Sarah-Has-Arrived]

@@thatfairy_mina Oh you’re fine! Nothing to forgive! You just didn’t know, and now you do! We’re all just fans of EPIC and want to have fun. 💜 I honestly think it’s great that so many different people can connect over the music and also sometimes end up learning something new lol 😁

[@thatfairy_mina]

@Sarah-Has-Arrived Ok thank you!

[@ఌ-SCYLLA-ఌ]

This cave is amazing, look at how many sheep there are! Oh, there’s a cyclops? Oh well, I doubt he means any harm. Never mind, he’s pissed cuz we killed off a small part of his farm. Greet the club with open arms, greet the club with open arms!! (I sincerely apologize for this)

[@raijade9644]

This was amazing!! I love your designs for everyone, and how you chose to interpret different portions of the song, especially the eagerness that Polyphemus accepts the wine with and why its so shocking when he decides on Death

[@Avalanchee3]

Thank you so much for watching! Glad you liked it ❤️

[@discordfinch2340]

I LOVE how the cyclops has the same pupil as sheep have. It's such a cool detail!

[@fluffycat2728]

Gah! I love every animators little details and different cyclops designs! You’re so incredibly underrated 😭

[@Avalanchee3]

Thank you! 🥺

[@solarsleepless]

polites' glasses flashing when "you'd never wanna eat human flesh again" is oof ack OOF

[@sundalosketch4769]

The hopeful look on his face too, like he is seeing Odysseus taking his advice, and it seems to be working. The only error they made for his belief system, was applying it after they'd already hurt the big fella.

[@scaramouchefollower]

This is such a cool Polyphemus design!! It's so unique!

[@islabarker133]

The lip movements are so good! I liked the foreshadowing with Polites and the sheep details on Polyphemus. You've done an amazing job!

[@Avalanchee3]

Thank you! ✨❤️

[@TheSkeletonVA]

Great job! I love your design for the Cyclops! He’s both Monstrous, Human, and a bit beastial with the sheep elements of his design.

[@notsolonedesert]

Ohhh your cyclops design is so amazing?? And I love the detail of how the cyclops already has focused on Polites being his first victim after he drinks the wine. And it's so cool when Eurylochus shoots the arrow through Odysseus' cape! Love them, we love friends protecting each other, I sure hope nothing bad happens to them

[@Dumpster_Ghost]

Just wanted to say I LOVE the design of the cyclops! It’s a much more interesting take on what the mythical creatures would look like ❤

[@gilliancastle5106]

This is really good! I always love it when people get creative with Polyphemus's design

[@Snappy0310]

I love that eye looks like a sheep cause he has a connection to the sheep

[@nikolajsteffensen6578]

oh i love this Polyphemus design. It kind of reminds me of the upgraded cyclopes from heroes of might and magic 5 and 6. really cool.

[@justanothercommenterwithan9089]

i like the woolen clothes on the cyclops nice detail since he keeps sheep.

[@TheStigirl]

this is so well done!!! i kept noticing things so heres a list of things i liked!!! - the perspective at 0:12 is really nice - the lipsynching overall is so goooddd omg :D - the way the pupil constricts at 0:53 and then the rest fades in is so creepy and amazing - aw the sheepies :(( - 1:59 WHAT THIS IS SO COOL AND SMOOTH overall this was really amazing to watch!! i hope you get some more attention on here, you deserve it :3

[@Avalanchee3]

I'm glad you noticed such details! Thanks!

[@airestheram6313]

Omg this may be the best animated version of this song ever be of the tear drop falling from the camera I felt his pain 😭😭😭

[@Zhiron.535]

This has got to be my favourite Polyphemus interpretation yet! I love how you’ve made him really monstrous but also so cute and emotive. I just want to pet him!!!

[@Dragongirl06]

this is amazing, i especially loved the scene where you see poly's pov with the tears falling down!

[@Yukiiceflower]

I love how unique your character designs are! Freckled Polites is so cute!

[@dootznbootz]

SUCH SMOOTH ANIMATION!! I LOVE HOW YOU HAVE EURYLOCHUS SHOOT THE ARROW TO GET ODY DOWN! AND THE REFLECTION OF POLITES' GLASSES

[@cal971]

oh my god this is so perfect each animation feels done with such care. also the eye thing between polities and polyphemus? beautiful. the tear drop effect for when polyphemus grabs his favorite sheep? so good. i love your take on this!

El diseño del ciclope esta increíble, me gusta creer que tiene una capa de la lana de sus ovejas 😭

His cape is actually made from sheep wool that was falling out when he brushed them, because he would never do something bad to his sheep
