"Terra Artemos" by Holger ´Mangalore´ Goebber

Wooooooooooow... such detail! I especially love the Elven characters engraved in the thing behind her.

Wow, this picture is awesome "wow"

Yes that armour would suit hefge...sorry, I meant hedge. I cant type right, because I am not accustomed to this new kind of technology... and I am also missing a hand... Oh I do wish I could see dog sooner, but I am so busy, and I misplaced my mirror... oh sorry, I'm off topic again... The armour is beautifully drawn, nice detail... The background reminds me of a place of death...

Her face reminds me of Clack Kent's mother on Smallville. Pretty cool dude!

Not bad. Her legs are too short.

I love the lighting makes it look very real. Maybe the legs are a little short (but your not the only guilty one) and it didnt stop me from saying 'wow' when I saw the pic!

PRACTICAL weapons & armor on a fantasy drawing of a war-maid....Do you know how rare that is? I LOVE it!!!!!!!

I may be way off guard. But the armour colour, and the weapon, this character, what RPG is it from? An old computer game called Daggerfall?

My reaction to this picture when I first saw this piece:
Oo... OO! OOO! I like this picture... I mean really like it. Like, really, really, really like it. It's really good. It's really, really, really good! I love the armor. A lot... Really a lot. I really, really, really love it a lot! (Was talking to my friend at the time.)

As you can tell, I really like this piece. And I love the armor. It's... I have no words for how much I love that armor. I worship at the alter that is your creativeness!

If I had a rating system, this picture would get the highest possible mark, because of its awesomeness.

Keep up the awesome work. And I don't me awesome as in the over done, played out, yuppie 80's kind of awesome, but the original awe striking awesome. SiN out.

I always like coming around now an again to see the comments people have posted for the portrait Holger did for my character. I enjoy seeing that so many people enjoy that Terra is not your typical scantily clad warrioress as are usually seen in fantasy art and to a lesser extent fiction. I did have some very specific ideas, but I am glad to have had Holger's input on them as the result was something much better and more believable than what my initial concept was.

Clayton Tait, I honestly do not know what Daggerfall is, so I am reasonably sure I did not get any ideas from there, I can not speak for Holger though. I actually got the idea for the colour from the Mordsith in Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth series. She wears her red armor on the battlefield, so it is quite likely she is seen here either thinking about a battle to come, or reflecting on one that has just ended.

I can't thank Holger enough for putting in the time to do this for me. Even if her legs are a bit short the portrait is amazing none the less. Holger you are easily equal in skill and talent to the other artests of Santharia.
