This is very beautiful. Love the colours and the light that's shining down upon them. I adore how Yardan's copying Atis!
Also, do you have any tips on how to draw androgynous faces? I want to draw a face portrait of my male character, but whenever I draw him, he looks too much like a woman. How would you suggest I get that balance? Thank you!

Thank you very much! I'm glad to hear it!
Yardan is one of my favorite characters
It is necessary to take photos of real androgynous and feminine men and copy many, many times. You will experience, you will learn to see the small differences between a male and a female face

Isn't it Devine I personally do not worship Cybele and Attis but I wish they the Galli were still around......I worship Isis and the Morrighan.

I also wished they were still around... sigh...
when I was a teenager, I was interested in hinduism and buddhism. Krishna was my favourite deity.
Morrigan, the goddess of war, also called Cathubodva, you mean? Yes, she is interesting, I read about her in Marion Zimmer Bradley's books. Is positive that a female goddess is depicted with a warlike and strong character.

Yes indeed but The Morrighan is so much more than just a war deity for me anyway she appears as both the masculine and feminine, an is a goddess of sorcery and sight, of sovereignty and death, she is like I suppose a ''dark'' version of Isis in her own way.

a dark vision of Isis
Yeah, makes sense, since Isis is the life-giver, while Morrigan is associated to death and vengeance! Sovereignty... Yes, Death is sovereign above all mortals. She is our queen and we will all be hers somedays.
