Apollo has been variously recognized as a god of music, truth and prophecy, healing, the sun and light, plague, poetry, and more. Apollo is the son of Zeus and Leto, and has a twin sister, the chaste huntress Artemis.
As the patron of Delphi, Apollo was an oracular god. Medicine and healing are associated with Apollo, whether through the god himself or mediated through his son Asclepius, yet Apollo was also seen as a god who could bring ill-health and deadly plague. Amongst the god's custodial charges, Apollo became associated with dominion over colonists, and as the patron defender of herds and flocks. As the leader of the Muses and director of their choir, Apollo functioned as the patron god of music and poetry. Hermes created the lyrefor him, and the instrument became a common attribute of Apollo.

This turned out to be hell to print. My Monoprice Voxel actually turned out to be a nice little machine to print miniatures but this one provided a challenge. Kept getting layer shifts in the thin waste area. To get a decent print, I ended up printing way slow, adding a raft, and printing TWO statues at the same time, to give the PLA time to cool down.
