Reminds me of the typical description of Athena. I like it! The eyes are a bit strange in my view, but that just makes her seem a bit more otherworldly.
@Sarapis I imagined so, though I wouldn't object to a God wearing something else every so often. I mean, who wants to get blood on their good clothing? Even if you're a God, that's still some lowly mortal fluids on your person.
@Katzchen We call the folks who clean our robes "Order members".
I have said too much...
If I ever made tried to ask Artemis if I could clean Her clothes She'd just geyser me to the roof, then throw me into the volcano.
Now let's see Chris try to tackle a portrait of @Sarapis and his "He is completely naked" yet wearing clothes description. That'd drive any artist nuts in trying to write up the brief.
"Faded away like the stars in the morning, Losing their light in the glorious sun, Thus would we pass from this earth and its toiling, Only remembered for what we have done."
I don't really like this one as much as previous commissioned art. I appreciate the detail - the lighting and shadow on the skin look great, the hands and body look very realistic, the folds of the clothing, the little touches like the staff, pendant, and sandals. It just doesn't grab me though. I'm not sure why. The expression seems closer to empty than stern/aloof/inhuman, and I would probably not know from looking at it - the setting/background, pose, outfit, expression, physique - that this was a goddess, rather than a powerful mage (admittedly that is because elementalists in Achaea can do similarly badass things to what is depicted here, and things like glowing eyes are somewhat ambiguous).
I would like to see more from this artist though. Particularly of other gods.
I really like the background and the detail of her clothing and jewellery, but the first thing I noticed when I opened up this picture was the hand sticking straight up - for some reason it looks almost too straight and seems really weird to me. Maybe it's just me though.

Whats the name of this new artist? Is it the same person who did the Dala'myrr?
Chris Bourassa, I believe. Not a new artist.
No, it's a new artist that goes by the moniker Irulana, though that's not her real name. We're having her do a bunch of Godly portraits. Her style is very different from Bourassa's, so definitely don't expect the same thing as the race art pictures (which are all Bourassa).
Also not the same person that did the Dala'myrr. I was trying out a new artist on the Dala'myrr but decided not to continue working with that one.

And a crouching position!
And a dagger she's always carving up dudes with. Silly, sissy quarterstaff.
The art is wonderful, however.
Honourable, knight eternal,
Darkly evil, cruel infernal.
Necromanctic to the core,Dance with death forever more.
