Description Egypt is awesome! It's just like going through the '20s craze again!

#1 - Ptolemy: "Do you want anchovy bread for lunch, Rekhyt?"
Bartimaeus is in his lion form, like in the 125BC Alexandria prologues. Ptolemy (Soter?) is only half Egyptian (the other half is Greek), but it's still awesome! Why does everyone draw him with long hair? Also, that's a lapwing design on Barti's belt. ^__^

#2 - Dios: "Son, in Djelibeybi, free will is sucked out of you through your nostrils. Now be a good boy and put on your mask."
Teppic is going through the daily ceremony. What is the Cabbage of Vegetative Increase? No matter who draws High Priest Dios, HE LOOKS THE SAME!! It's like Pocahontas' and Moses' dad had a baby.

#3 - Gupta: "?"
I don't think he says anything. Who knows, I don't watch the show or read the comics, but his character design is adorable.


AHH!!
*fangirl spasms*

That's Gupta alright. Never says a word, but he puts an end to Greece's and Turkey's fights.

People draw him with hair because the books describe him as having hair

Ah, Dios... one of the most interesting characters I've read about in Discworld. You almost have to pity him by the end...

Ptolemy is drawn with long hair, because Bartimaeus once refered Nats hair as "even longer than Ptolemy's" so it was to be long, yet less long than what Nat had in second book

Love it <3 It's awesome . I'm not familiar with Hetalia, but the Bartimaeus trilogy fanart and the discworld fanart are great . I really like the loving expression in Bartimaeus' eyes there...

One note on your comment though... everyone draws Ptolemy with long hair because Bartimaeus says that he had long hair in the beginning of the first book somewhere. He wants to take Ptolemy's form to annoy Nathaniel because they look so much alike; the same long dark hair, almost the same length and so on.

I can't imagine him with hair at all, even though he's supposed to be Greekish. I think his hair was described as "tousled" somewhere, but then again, he was also described as having a pale lamb's throat.

SethFox In reply to cathyOMG [2011-01-06 08:52:54 +0000 UTC]

I think that might just be a metaphor xD

Anyway, that's just what I picked up from the book... I can imagine him with and without hair, so yeah xD

Pyramid-tacular! I've only been familiar with the Discworld creations, out of your neat illustrated triptych.

I must find out more about this Bartimaeus trilogy. Anything with anthropomorphised animals like Thundercats or Avatar, I dig!

cathyOMG In reply to AyanAyzodei [2010-12-14 14:27:17 +0000 UTC]

The animals from the Bartimaeus Trilogy aren't exactly animals, as such. They're actually demon spirits from another dimension who take on physical forms on whim. Some choose animal shapes, others human, or sometimes objects like smoke or bubbles or a footstool.

If you're into anthros, there's Redwall, Warrior Cats, King of the Wind (and other Marguerite Henry books if you like horses), Fire Bringer, and maybe His Dark Material, even though those technically aren't real animals.

Funimation doesn't have licensing rights in Australia.
Is there any other way to watch legally without busting the piggy bank?

Funimation did put all the subbed episodes on their youtube channel, and i can get them in the UK so I think you can get them in Australia. PM me on DW forums and I'll send you a link.

Yay, it worked!
Only the loading is slow because my sister is downloading episodes of Survivor on her computer, making the internet for me go at snailpace.
