She is really cute!
Basically, she is the goddess of wisdom and strategy.
P.S. I'm Greek!

my favourite greek godess. I like the red´n´black tone range, as a tribute to the aspect of the ancient greek vases ^_^

She's one of my favourite greek deities too! This Athena is one of the main characters from Saint Seiya series, which is really special to me... I tried to combine the original myth (using traditional greek art references) and Masami Kurumada's creation.
Once again, thanks for your review!

Wow, great to hear! Thank you so much, I'm flattered you enjoyed this Athena's portrait... it's a fanart from Saint Seiya. Do you know this series? If you like mythology (in particular Athena), maybe you could like it Of course it's freely adaped from the ancient myth... but I think it's really nice!

I very much like this portrait indeed! it reminds me of the black-figure and red-figure pottery! yes, I mythology is one of my favorite topics to discuss and Greek myths is my 1st love
Ill look into the Saint Seiya series you mentioned

Oooh! And you can tell just how much you enjoyed drawing her! Absolutely stunning!!!
I love the profile...Cute but also stern. And all the thick black lines with the sepia color makes it look like pottery! :0 I love the stylized owl! So cute and huggable but somehow also mysterious...Wonderful patterns (like the historiae picture, this is such a cool mix of modern and classic style!) Amazing armor (again! XD) and I love how your attention is immediately drawn to her eye. Her eye speaks of all the wisdom and majesty a goddess ought to have. As always, what a brilliant coloring decision, to leave the eye the only thing colored differently! You amaze me! XD

Fengtianshi [2010-06-26 18:28:32 +0000 UTC]
Delle tue Saori l'aspetto che mi piace di più è come riesci a dare loro sia lo spirito della dea che quello della ragazza... Anche qui, nel suo profilo altero e nel suo sguardo deciso, reso guerresco dalla presenza dell'elmo, si vede comunque la sua natura di ragazza ancora giovane nonostante l'universo di responsabilità sulle spalle. Una dualità in qualche modo richiamata dal fatto che l'occhio è bianco, come se il suo spirito staccasse in qualche modo dalla sua rappresentazione divina.
Il concept è geniale poi, mi piace tantissimo l'idea di richiamare l'arte vascolare greca e la sua semplicità elegante delle linee decorative. Non si poteva ritrarre meglio Atena/Saori, è bellissima! ç/////ç

lillabullero In reply to Fengtianshi [2010-07-02 07:18:14 +0000 UTC]
Mi rende così felice ciò che dici, perché è esattamente l'aspetto che più colpisce anche me del suo personaggio, e sostanzialmente quello che mi ha fatto affezionare indissolubilmente alla sua figura (che trovo ingiustamente odiata e insultata fin troppo dalle masse di fan ._.)! Ti ringrazio davvero di cuore per vedere tutta questa profondità nel mio lavoro, che a me pareva tutto sommato piuttosto piatto... e come al solito ben distante da ciò che avrei voluto restituire!
E' ispirato a un vaso ellenico che avevo visto al museo di arte antica di Amsterdam con mio padre, e avevo proprio distintamente pensato che era un concept potenzialmente molto "Athenoso"!

Fengtianshi In reply to lillabullero [2010-07-19 09:50:51 +0000 UTC]
Eh, è facile prendersela con Saori un po' per via della sistematicità con cui si ritrova a dover essere salvata da tutte quelle situazioni a "conto alla rovescia"... Se uno non ha troppa voglia di stare a pensarci, finisce per considerarla quella che non fa mai niente, si caccia nei guai e deve essere salvata (senza contare la gelosia del popolo femminile del fandom...)
Secondo me tu la ritrai sempre così bene, con la devozione di un vero saint, riesci ad esprimere le sue due nature con molto affetto. Il riferimento originale non poteva trovare una rielaborazione migliore! Mi piacciono davvero tanto le tue Saori!

So I watched the first two episodes of the anime. It's a fun, very 80es anime, but the first story arc with the tournament doesn't really appeal to me. A bit too much fighting for my taste... But I really love Shaina the moment she loses her mask in the first episode [I first also heard her attack's name as "Santa Clause"] And the intro song is also cool.

lillabullero In reply to Lemniskate [2010-07-01 21:48:01 +0000 UTC]
I see, I'm sorry that it doesn't really appeal to you, but I'm glad that you like it just a bit!
Of course is a very 80es anime, as you said, but it's really important for japanese animation history! The first part of the anime is a bit boring, I know, and there are a lot of filler episodes too. But then it becomes more attractive, and the characters become more interesting...
I'm so glad you liked the mask-moment, it's really nice (Shaina-san is such a lovley character too!
)
Anyway, thank you for giving Saint Seiya a chance! May your cosmo burn forever!

I never meant to say that being an 80es anime is a bad thing Why exactly is it important in anime history?

Saint Seiya succeed a lot (and keeps up doing it, because has always something new to say!) both for the plot and because it was an extremely well-drawn anime, and the technique was really beautiful! Shingo Araki-sensei's design was (and is) considered amazing... That's really too lovley and kind of you!!!
I'm so glad to see this work!!! Thank you for doing and linking it!!!

Com'è bella l'impressione di "ceramica a figure nere", con quelle girali e la civetta come nell'iconografia e lo stile tradizionale... dovresti realizzare più contaminazioni tra lo stile classico e i personaggi di Saint Seiya! *___*
