Description Dunno what hit me there, but this is what have been resulting from a very sudden idea two weeks ago already. Might had something to do that I played "Illusion of Time", also known as "Illusion of Gaia" a while ago...
Just took me a while to finish it.

Gaia as the goddess of the Earth is from the greek mythology and her name itself stands also for the greek word of earth.
This is my impression of how Gaia could be picutred without having any kinda greek influences for the style. I just let my imagination run wild.

Hope you like it.
Have fun.

Well, it is pretty old by now. Would be completely different if I'd do a remake of it today.

I love the use of the combo of Earth-type greeny-blues and the yellow, it all goes really well together.

This is a really beautiful re-interpretation of Gaia without any of the traditional Greek influences, it's awesome. I and this at once.

I also really enjoy Illusion of Gaia and the Soulblazer trilogy, and think more needs to be done to bring these three amazing SNES classics into the consciousness of the modern gamer generation.

Thank you ^^

Yeah, I know what you mean. A remake of these games surely would be great, but unfortunately many games are not very good today anymore. A few are still great, but honestly... sometimes I prefer the old SNES-games over newer ones for PSP or PS2 (Don't have a X-BOX360 or PS3).

Yup, played IoG many times already.
Sure I know it! Terranimga is my favourite game for the SNES along Secret of Evermore. I still love to play it from time to time. It never bores me.

Yup! Especially the storyline got me pinned. The plot simply is great. It's just a shame that many games today don't have this kinda quality anymore...

Neos-The-Hedgehog In reply to Taleea [2009-12-14 02:48:56 +0000 UTC]

true ... Terranigma is one of the best games I've played SuperNintendo would be great if you make a Terranigma then fed to a version for PS2 or PC...
When finished playing the game, I felt very good, yet sad because the game ended, I was moved ...

That's beautiful, actually she reminds me of this group of characters in my twin's story, they're called 'Sherwood Dancers'. Amazing work!

Thank you. I thought of a tree's roots and mothery care when I created her robe and dress. She was suppose to have a soft and tender expression a connection to life and nature at the same time, but it was also suppose to be a bit mysterious. This is all in the clothing as well.

I love it when people do art from their impressions it just looks so awesome. it shows how they see thinks and how creative they are 83 I like this a lot I could picture gods from mythology myself but never attempted to draw them...anyway I never heard of Gaia just from the web site and some games...great job this gives me some kind of idea of what she looks like and I learned a little abut her in ur artist comments...ah well I like the emotion in this pictures and I like the colors here (my fave greens and mixs of green 83) like the detail in both the clothing and on her as well! all in all great job it is truly a nice piece of work here!

Thank you very much. ^^
I'm always paying a lot ot attention to the colours and the details of a drawing and if I'm not, at least, a bit satisfied with a work, I keep working on it until I AM a bit satisfied with it.
I'm glad you like the colurs and the look I've choosen for her.
