Description Obviously, I took an image of the movie Artemis of Saint Seiya as my main model, I've searched for a Persephone anime deviation or fanart, but never found one, so for the lack of, I made my own. I hope it is to your satisfaction. I really wanted her to be very earthly, but at the same time fit to be the Queen of the Underworld. So I made her hair brown, to resemble the earth's fertility, and made her eyes yellow, to be both piercing and warm, and wanted to keep her skin somewhat tan, since she does travel between worlds, the living under the sun, and the sunless adobe of her husband. I made her dress pastel purple and green to be both a spring color and cold, and the red gem is actually a pomegranate seed, representing her changing powers, and her treaty between her mother and her husband, reason why I made her aura or cosmos red.

I love the great symbolism and it is very beautiful. Yellow is not my favorite color for eyes, but the double meaning is nice. I think you should put her hair over her eye though.

I like the symbolism you did. Especially with explaining the colors. I think they all go very nicely with her.

Oh okay. I'm not sure how graphic design works, so I guess I'll see no difference. ^.^;;

I think this is an interesting colour scheme for Persephone and it works well! My Persephoneia (I used the Homeric spelling, I guess she didn't show up in your search because of that) is a bit more pop-artly coloured.

I just saw your Persephoneia, and it's a very interesting use of colors, I like the adornments you used on her, and I see we both have the yellow eyes going on. Very cool indeed.

I hope you can make the shading soon, it would be very cool to see it complete. By the way, I'm looking forward to reading your work about this art, I too would get revenge against sissy Athena, dont like her very much, for killing beloved Hadesh, whom looks so hot on the anime.

Well, I have finally finished all trade arts, so I only need to get the pics of nekkid Milo and nekkid Saga out of the way, then I can take care of my own projects again. ^^

I will redo the dress of my Persephoneia and probably put her into a more traditional Greek costume. I guess I will have to delete her belt then, but we'll have to wait and see

As for the story where she shows up - that's here: [link]
(She's quite a brat there, though - but that's mostly Demeter's fault...)

Hey Stayka, I just started to read it last night, I've been rather busy with school, so I've only checked my messages a couple of times. But about your work, so far so good. You can post your work in fanfiction.net if you want, I have of couple of things there, and Im trying to find my way around the latest one I'm working on, hope to do it soon, but school is killing me. Anyways check that website out, I think you'll like it, and maybe even become a member too.

I have my stuff up at FF.net for quite a while, but it looks as if no one ever finds my stuff there, thus I prefer to keep the current stuff at my own homepage.

I really like it, she looks so serene yet so strong, like someone you cant mess with, but who seems to have a heart. I Really Like It a Lot.
