Actually the Goddess of wisdom warfare and weaving.

Athena from Xena Warrior Princess I think played by Paris Jefferson... The details were killer but all worth it in the end... The background on the reference was retarded... even though it was a scene where her archers were shooting it took away from her... so I used a reference from a Xena trading card and applied that and I think it works well next to the intricate details of the armor...

Ooh, I love this. Definitely outstanding work on the whole thing, especially the armor. How long did it take you? Personally, I am ensorcelled (bewitched) by Paris Jefferson and am going to see her at 2013 Xena Con in Burbank. Can hardly wait! =D

:omg: Besides Aphrodite Artemis is my next favourite goddess from the show. Even if she did go crazy on her 'Eve' mission :XD:
This is another great piece DarkGuardiann. The detail is amazing, especially how you got the shine on her armour and the chain-mail on her skirt!
Amazing!! :clap:
