Description This actually started life as a succubus sketch, but then I decided to go a whole different direction with it. Generally speaking she came out very close to how I originally invisioned her once I got started on the hoplite theme.

The motto is greek for "Come and take them!" King Leonidas' defiant response to the Persians at Thermopylae when they demanded the Greeks lay down their arms. It is inscribed on the plaque on his modern memorial in Greece.

Hand drawn, colored in photoshop.

Enjoy,

Love the helmet and the half clothed robe. I think a gathering of your time crossed warriors would be cool

Thanks, I had some trouble with the Greek font because it corresponds at random to the Roman letters on my keyboard. That, and sadly I don't speak Greek, so it's a bit hit and miss.
