As a Helasdottir, I really appreciate this... she has such depth to herself that few understand or even want to. Most people's depictions are greys, black and white. I like that you added the colors and still easily manage to convey her simple intensity. The coloring doesn't take away from Her Message, either. lol it cracks me up how Heathens try to ignore or barely honor her. She is the Keeper of much of our Dead. So silly Anyways, I'm buying a poster. Thank you! & Hailsa Brother !

Very interesting interpretation.
I like the colors and the life. The effects are stunning.
It's an interesting idea to use red and blue instead of black and white as so many others. As I remember Hel's apperance could be translateds as halfly with the rosy glow of life and halfly with the blackish blue as a corpse.
I'm not fond of the blurriness of the forgrounds framework, my eyes tries to focus on it and can't :/

Sexy....sexy.....SEXY Hel! I have a very strong fondness for her (would be hard not to, loving Loki), and I love the fire-and-ice thing going on there.

Wow. This is beautiful.
It's something I would consider getting tattooed upon me.
I have a love of Hel... I know few Asatru pay homage to her beyond the bare minimum. But I find her fascinating.

Thank you ^) Since I consider myself a lokean, it's kind of hard to ignore Hel ;)
I would not want to ignore her anyway, I like her ^)

why does this picture only got 3 comments!?
It's a stunning piece of art!! Would fit perfectly as a cd cover!
Would you mind if the band I'm plying in used this for that purpose one time in the future (A few years though...in the writing period)?
Will come back to that later hehe
Great picture anyways!

No, I don't mind. If you still want the picture for a CD cover, ask me in few years and I'll send you a bigger file ;)

Looks amazing!
I'm glad to see you've obviously got Photoshop up and running again, or something just as good. Great pic of this dark character of the underworld.
I've always wondered... did she get this name after Christianty came to the North? Because it seems a bit big of a coincidence...

Hel! Now there's a delighful Godess which I sadly ever acknowledge.
Impressive portrait of her, to say the least. She does not carry her half old/half young face, but it is lovely still.
Delightful creation, miss.
