Pantheon's kit falls quite short to his name as an Artisan of War, as you can agree. Nothing in his kit is really "artistic" in style or theme - you press two buttons, and if they're not dead, auto them more, occasionally use Youmuu's.

So here is a basic sketch of what a more artistic but thematically similar kit would be like.

P: Aegis Protection Pantheon periodically blocks a basic attack. The cooldown of this passive is reduced with each of Pantheon's basic attacks or spell casts. CD Reduction: 0.75 per attack, 1.5 per spell. Cooldown: 16/14/12/10/8

Q: Spear Shot Pantheon throws a spear in a line, damaging the first enemy unit struck. If the spear hits a Heartsought enemy, it critically strikes for 50% bonus damage and stuns them. Cooldown: 7/6/5/4/3 This skillshot would be long and thin, and deal base damage increasing with travel distance.

W: Aegis of Zeonia Pantheon throws his shield in a line, damaging and slowing the first enemy struck, as well as applies a Heartseek mark. Pantheon then has the chance to catch his shield as it lands toward the indicated location. If he successfully catches it, his passive cooldown is completely reset and this ability's cooldown is reset by 70%. Cooldown: 14s This skillshot would be shorter and wider than Spear Shot. After striking an enemy unit, it will take twice as much time to land at the indicated location. If the shield hits nothing, it simply reaches the end of its range and lands there, allowing Pantheon a few seconds to pick it up to get the passive reset.

E: Gambit Pantheon tumbles in a line, empowering his next basic attack to trip an opponent with his feet, knocking them down for 1.5 seconds. During the knockdown, Pantheon's basic attacks critically strike for 50% bonus damage. Basic attacks and spell casts reduce the cooldown of this spell by 1 and 2 seconds respectively. Cooldown: 16s Pantheon's main mobility spell, reworked from his old W. A skillshot dash with CC on the next attack would definitely allow room for counterplay but reward the Pantheon for using it well.

R: Grand Skyfall Same as the old, but can also be insta-cast to dole an immediate AoE slow.
