  1. Balor, Odin or just a cyclops ?

    Edit: Odin is depicted as having lost an eye, he gave it up for wisdom/magic. But if you say one eyes figures in mythology Odin is the first name.

    Balor is a figure in Irish mythology, served as inspiration for Sauron in Lord of the Rings.

  2. It’s mad how the AI effect transfers over physically. While it’s skilled technically, it screams AI generated and I don’t like looking at it unfortunately. The swirls in the beard and the weird bead thing in the middle, the weird strap buckles going on, patterns that don’t complete… all the flaws were copied in.

  3. I drove down Mary St one morning while he just started it…..it’s mightly impressive

  4. Yes, that’s supposed to be Balor, leader of the Fomorians.
    He was killed by his grandson Lugh, whose name is where Louth is derived from.

  5. A shame that it’s beyond obvious AI was used to create the original image

  6. Its crap, so much human art and you guys getting excited about this

  7. Who wanna bet , that there will be some eejits spray tag on it in a week?

  8. That appears to be an AI image that’s been printed on A1 sheets, and then pasted to a wall.

    Not that epic IMO.

  9. Recently when my family lived in Drogheda they were freaking out thinking this painting was the anti christ lol
