So my Kemet Religious Calendar 2026 by Luigi Tripani arrived yesterday. I wasn’t sure quite what to expect, but it is a fascinating read (so far). It touts itself as a reconstruction of religious events from Kemet’s Sothic Calendar Cycle mapped to the 2026 Gregorian Calendar using the ancient festival lists, temple information, as well…

π£ SassyPants’ “Anubis Revisited” π£
If I’m reading what I found correctly, this may have been done as some kind of poster. At least that’s one comment on a furry website said. I like the simplicity in this a lot. I am not sure if I’d define it as a chibi Anubis, but it has certain chibi traits that are…
π£ ζιι Egyptian Cartoon π£
It took forever to find out who the likely artist is on this piece, and I am fairly confident it is Chinese artist ζιι based on other art of the humans. I very much love this cartoon. I don’t think it is supposed to be Anubis per se, given there are 2 of them fully…
π£ hbruton’s “Anubis on Papyrus” (2016) π£
On the whole this is really quite a nice painting of Anubis. A few inaccuracies in interpretations that always bug me (only head has black skin, earrings, ankh in the Ma’at feather). That said, I really like the nemes (headdress) and I’ll let the kohl cosmetic eye design slide, though it does look like the…
π£ ketrin1607’s “Set” π£
I stumbled across ketrin1607’s webcomic project Fiasco this morning while deep searching Kemet fan art. Very interesting project and I very much like many of her interpretations for the Kemet deities, especially Set, Thoth, and Anubis. They are distilled down into primitive shapes that would allow for quick illustration and animation. Artist: ketrin1607. | https://x.com/anilesco
π£ Anilesco’s “Ptah” π£
There is not all that much fan art of Ptah out there. From modern interpretations, Ptah tends to get overlooked by the more well-known deities of the nearby Jwnw (Heliopolis) Ennead. From a Memphis theological perspective, he’s up there with my beloved Jwnw Atum as the ultimate creator god, and as always, the flexible syncretic…
π£ Dead Black Spark’s “The Duat awaits⦔ π£
I always find it humorous when artists inclde Ammit in works with Anubis, especially when it appears that she’s in a “pet” capacity. This Anubis and Ammit are quite wonderful. Ammit isn’t really a goddess, per se, in the sense she had any cult activity. In fact, she was a relatively recent addition to Kemet…
π£ The Artful Megalodon’s “What’s Up, Kiddo?” π£
I came across this photo/scan of an acrylic on canvas Anubis piece from Apr 13, 2008! I very much love the texture. I know we use the word “texture” for digital work, but it really is a misnomer when there is no actual texture from paints or substrate.

Vanessa Ninona’s “Pharaoh Akhenaten”
A very beautiful drawing of 18th Dynasty Kemet Pharaoh Akhenaten wearing the blue war crown. She’s done an amazing job interpreting the look of the radical Amarna-period art style into this. Less exaggerated. More realistic. (I am getting sick of using the modern term Amarna for this era. We really need to start dealing with…
The People Profiles – “Nefertiti – Revolutionary Queen of Egypt”
NalaFans know that I loves me some 18th Dynasty Kemet, and The People Profiles dropped a Nefertiti video yesterday that I enjoyed. Very happy they’ve recently added a woman narrator to their channel as well. I know the bad craziness of historical record between Akhenaten‘s death and before Tutankhamun‘s ascension to the throne is difficult…
