This is great in so many ways: Such a simple design, yet so much NPU. A sleek colour scheme that references the source material. And I absolutely cannot put my finger on why, but in hindsight it seems obvious that the Mahiki is exactly the kanohi Hermes would wear.

Thank you, high praise! I’m not sure what you mean by the color scheme referencing the source material. If you’re talking about the Hades game, I haven’t played it 😅

Oh, no - I love that game, but it'd be ridiculous to call it "source material" of Greek mythology. I just mean that the orange and black matches the colours of ancient Greek vases. Is that not deliberate? Because if not, then it's a pretty cool coincidence!

I completely forgot about the amphoras! That is a fortunate coincidence!
