It looks great and I'm using her as reference for my characters from a film I'm making.

Wow, this is a great depiction of Theodora - it has a nice byzantine feel to it. Her head gear is wonderful and I like the shading a lot - thank you for sharing!

Oh, nicely done. You really captured the look of the old ikon paintings.
Not to mention she's one of my favorite people from that period.

Favorite Byzantine Empress yesplz? This is basically amazing. It's really astounding how well you made her look like the mosaics, but she still looks like a real person too. I love her.

Thanks! This style is looks like between the very early icon painting and the Fayum portraits (which was absolutely awesome, if you don't know them, please, look at them in the web, you wouldn't regret, I promise...)

OH the Roman-Egyptian paintings! I have a book about those somewhere. They are awesome. I really see the influence. That's so cool!

What an amazing blend of styles - she seems real and Byzantine stylised at the same time. I just love this piece!
