Aiacos of House Rai, Lord of Sky Reach

Made for @saintseiya-zone Underworld fanzine, inspired by my high fantasy AU. This artwork is Glazed.

Aiacos wields two kukri, the national weapon of Nepal (his birthplace), as his skills revolve around assassination (in contrast to Radamanthys, who fights in close combat with sword and shield, and Minos, who is a necromancer and prefers to stay at a distance). My personal HC is that he has golden eyes because that is a genetic trait inherited from Zeus (which Rada and Minos already share)

Polaris Hilda, The High Priestess

My fanart for the Saint Seiya Tarot Collaboration organized by CyberSpecter. This artwork is Glazed.

Illustration elements explanation under the cut:

The High Priestess card represents a connection between the mortal existence and higher knowledge, just like how Hilda is the connection between her people and the gods in Asgard.

The rune ᚨ (ansuz) between her hands symbolized divine guidance, and was frequently used to refer to Odin. Odin himself was a seeker of knowledge, going as far as sacrificing one of his eyes in exchange of wisdom. And even though in the anime Hilda only wears her raven-winged black headpiece while under the influence of the Nibelung ring, the fact it exists and is very similar to the headpiece in Odin's statue, leads me to believe it's part of her priestess attire. All in all, the three elements (ansuz, eye, headpiece) are linked through color and highlight, to represent Hilda's connection to the gods.

Her golden piece was redesigned to resemble the Viking Urnes style. The "moon-crown" elements are said to reference Hathor from Egyptian mythology, but also represent different stages of life (child, adult, senior) through the moon phases. The stars are a nod to the Ursa Major and the Polaris star, so prominent in the Asgard saga (they aren't included in the website version of the card because they match the frame used here specifically, and I didn't want it to look weird with the website frame)
