I was inspired by Mel Gibson's movie "Apocalypto" when I modeled this character.

Kukulkan = Quetzalcoatl you know the same God and Religion in fact.
Says "inspired" but await , Apocalipto is not one acurate film.
its only a Movie.
Green stones are Jade used by all Indian Nation ,
Indians used stones , feders , gold , etc , from North America to Patagonian lands.
Mayan and Aztecs were Imperiums but exist Totonacas , Xochimilcas , Tlaxcaltecas and other Imperium in South America "Incas"
in fact the jade was used by Chinese people too , other new fact about some stones in Mayan artefacts are this , some stones are from China not only from America.
The Jaguar inside of Chichen Itza Pyramid are cover with Chinese stones.

ok
im mexican so i sort of know
about the cultures that used to shine in my country
i dont deny the movie is inaccurate as shit considering
mayans didnt sacrifice people by the masses nor did they
believe in a god of the sun
what i meant was the style of the crown and the piercings
thats the mayan style of doing stuff or at least they used
to !!

in the last years of Mayan Empire
they made many sacrifices and is one basic fact of the decay of this empire.

learn about this facts , dar opiniones a ciegas pretendiendo saber algo es absurdo.
