My first reaction to the portrait was a loud “okay…” I don’t like when they over sexualise every female character in games, so being a bit odd looking is fine. She just looks a bit judgemental :sweat_smile: Like you’re gonna lose the game straight up

It’s the look of “Your corps is mine” :rofl::rofl:

If there’s any god that should be sexualized, it’s a fertility god(dess).

my honest suggestion for Demeter portrat change to also bring it more in line with the other major gods.

(please, World’s Edge, Tantalus Media and Forgotten Empires could you take this image please? i like the pose, her crown and golden hair aswell as the sickle and the fruit-horn she is holding i just adjusted it to make her a bit more appealing and much more fitting to the other major gods. feel free to use the image as it is. keep up the hard work and tanks for adding more content to this great game!)

Indeed. This Portrait is so much better!
Looks just like its Statue

Personally I would prefer another Nymph design. This one looks so much like Dryad to me

Thank you! :slight_smile: i really hope some of the devs see the suggestion since i just took their portrait and direction of viibe and style as a template and improved it a little bit.

About the Nymph i partly understand where you are coming from. I personally was also a bit irritated at first when i saw the image the first time (now i like it more and more :blush: cause of deailts which i didn’t see at first and the background which i now know).
don’t get me wrong, i understand the design direction you are suggestion BUT this is no ordinary “classical” Dryad.
This is a Hamadryad. [ Hamadryad - Wikipedia ]

tl;dr: Hamadryads are basically Forest-Nymphs which are bound/tied to a tree they are connected. you can see it here after a very quick research of some art.

they took this and elevated it make the Nymph and tree grow together and the Nymph basically “piloting” the tree.
it also looks less “maisntream” and more recogniseable on the battlefield and outside.

I can still make a Dryad more or less your style but again keep in mind this is a specific kind of Dryad, they elevated and already existing description. (and i personally have to say again it grows on me more and more and i think for you too! )

I have to saw, personally, I’m not a fan of the glowing eyes on majority of gods. This is a very good portrait.

Re: the Demeter portrait

This portrait is a 1000% improvement on the one they presented. WE, find the artist that produced this and get him on the team. He’s got talent!

I think it is AI made.

You have to understand the context for the Demeter face:

i appreciate the effort of trying to create a meme here but that would be the very first time if a god portraits face would showcase a specific reaction to a specific scenario - wyh would they do that?

for me she looks like a weird mix between concerned and confused and no other (major) god has that.

also i personally really don’t like the give the DLC major gods no glowing eyes - either remove them completely ir keep them for all - like this DLC stands out which i think should be the case it should integrate fluently.

Why are some comments flaggedf?

I read the comments and they were totally fine iny my opinion. (I even wanted to like @Catalytic3351 comment…)
The person who flagged them seems to have unnecessary issues. Please don’t remove those they are both fair and square.

  • Otherwise other comemnts need to get removed aswell.

Pretty nice
I do not see what people are complaining about.
If I will be leader on the Art department I will use this as an inspiration to work on a new one just with a more judgement face

All the images i let AI create with my imaginations in mind only serve the purpose as you said. as inspiration and suggestion. And everything AoMRetold-Community exclusive.
Thanks for understanding. Appreciated.
