Description
Schonee gave me her incredible Dark Night Backgrounds set for my Goddess series and I promised that I would try to do something magical with them. I hope that I have succeeded with my portrait of the Greek Goddess Athena. Thank you so much dear friend.
Lots of postwork in PSP to get the fire affects. The armor and helmet were all converted to an historically authentic bronze with gold details in the materials room using Tabala's wonderful Magical Metals package here at RMP.
Athena, Greek Goddess of War and guardian of Greek cities, particularly Athens. Protector of heroes and patroness of the arts, notably architects, sculptors and weavers. Born fully armed from the head of her father Zeus, symbolizing both intelligence and bravery in battle.
Athena is often portrayed as a young to middle age woman bearing a trident and wearing long flowing robes. To me this makes little sense for her primary role as a Goddess of War, so I have portrayed her as a warrior that any army of brave men would follow into battle.
Number 2 in my Portraits of Goddesses series.

For all friends of Dave (Heathcroft), he asks me to tell you that he has a bad infection in his right arm and can neither draw nor write on his computer. He is therefore sorry if he does not comment on our recent pictures. Let us all hold a thought in our hearts for this fine fellow and wish him a speedy recovery.

Great job !! :)
Marvelous image!
Nice render!
Absolutely stunning image of Athena! Always love someone who pays such beautiful respects to the Goddesses. Beautiful work!
Well done. 5+
Just got to see this- and am touched, but won't reapeat myself. Yiu know what I think about pretty girls and skulls- well, what do I see here? And all perfectly done! Postwork to perfection. I really must practice more and inspired by this, I will do a pretty girl in a fire and some skulls next I think? So be warned about being copied! Dave

Great looking version of Athena and you did it for a dear friend too

Athena looks great Roxy ... The colours suits Schonees background excellent!! [I promised I would catch up on your gallery ... please tell me if I missed one ;o]
Excellent and creative
another stunning piece...I think because of the flow of the tonal palette and textures... nicely done
She is in an excellent pose and I love her helmet!
Hey, nicely done - and I'm not a Poser fan...!
Great job showing Athena's warrior woman side!
