Greco-Roman Gods Series 1/12: Athena/Minerva

The concept for this series is born out of a life-long love of mythology (of all kinds). I wanted to set them in a modern setting, because a lot of their archetypes still hold true today, and that continuity is something that I find really cool.

I'm starting with Athena because, due to personal reasons, she has always been the goddess I've been the most interested in.

I'd like to point out a few design features:
1. The famous Aegis has been turned into a medallion.
2. The Athenian hoplite helmet design has been incorporated into her braided hairstyle.
3. Feather details on the lapels of her jacket, and her owl head ring to incorporate the owl
4. Metallic looking pantsuit as a nod to her being depicted with armor.
5. Olive branch earrings and border as a nod to her sacred plant.

After this will come the typical 12, in the standard order.
