Not far from what I had imagined, though I expected her to look a bit more warrior-like: Shorter, simpler dress that wouldn't get wrapped around her feet, quiver and bow strapped to her back. Granted I can't remember what her description looks like.
This is great. Much more of the ethereal splendour that I'd expect from a goddess than I saw in the picture of Artemis, and the art style is still excellent.
This is much more of the Goddess quality I would be looking for. I can't wait to see @Neraeos, now.
I sense a want of posters increasing in our near future, if this keeps up.
And I love too Be still, my indelible friend That love soon might end You are unbreaking And be known in its aching Though quaking Shown in this shaking Though crazy Lately of my wasteland, baby That's just wasteland, baby
The sweltering heat of the forge spills out across the land as the rumbling voice of Phaestus booms, "I want you to know, the Garden reaction to that one is: What?" The voice of Melantha, Goddess of the Seasons, echoes amid the rustle of leaves, "That's the censored version."
Just want to add as well: I really like the phases of the moon depicted on the hem of her dress. The detail in the artwork on both @Ourania and @Artemis has been really impressive, capturing a lot of what I depict from their in-game descriptions.
This does remind me that we need to get back to pruning her shrines, though... :-\"

You just want pin-ups as inspiration so you can write your steamy, Ourania-and-Neraeos slash fics.
-- Grounded in but one perspective, what we perceive is an exaggeration of the truth.

So good! I was hoping to see the maiden/crone aspects too somehow :< but I can hardly complain.
oooh. Brainstorm. Have same artist create these other two portraits, but with each in the same pose/position, maybe with the moon moved in the background? Then print it on those shifting-image cards/posters, where when you rock it hard to the left (or move yourself, if we're talking poster), you see the maiden, straight on is the matron, and rocked to the right is the crone.
All I ask as payment for my brilliant idea is a free poster or card >.>
Everything about her suggests otherworldly, ass-kicking goddess.
As to what Lyr said, I agree it may have been interesting to see her other aspects represented somewhere in the visual heirarchy of the image but then, maybe it would have lessened the impact.
