Midas and her trusted advisor, Athena! ♥
Athena is a daughter of royalty. With the highest possible education forced into her at a very young age, she has grown into an intelligent woman — beauty and brains. However, she has never experienced anything outside the four corners of their home. She was taught all the oceans that cover the Earth but has never seen one. She was told of the mountain ranges that unfailingly protected their land but not once in her life has she actually climbed one. All these were deprived from her by her parents. She was expected to live the life her parents have laid out for her but with all the knowledge of the wonders of the Earth known to her, her heart aches, eager to live a life that's more than being just a princess.
Athena was the Greek goddess of wisdom and warfare and the patron goddess of the city of Athens in Greece. sauce
Long brown hair, compared to Midas's short gold hair. I also made her wear a little less clothing since Midas was covered in armor. Aaaand of course their backstories were made to contrast each other too. While Midas had a dark childhood, I gave Athena a little lighter backstory — pampered little princess. And while Midas had powers that make her invincible, Athena had knowledge and wit to compensate for her average fighting skills. Despite their differences, be it in social status, attitude, they still became inseparable companions.
That's about it!

Two very well drawn characters with some well developed narratives. Will be interesting to watch their stories unfold

I like the idea of the intelligent sidekick and the name suits her right:) Both characters look amazing and so different, you worked a lot with the details and faces:) I will be waiting the rest of the adventure story. A girl that turns what touches to gold and her wise companion, who i think should suggest her to sell a pile of golden rocks and live both happily everafter,lol. Good luck with the dude:)

Join nTopaz Discord ChannelThank you, @georgeboya! I was thinking of Axhire at first but Athena fits better since the setting is war and fighting :> Well, in this world, the value of gold has drastically decreased since the existence of Midas which made people hate her more when she was a kid; she pretty much disrupted the entire market with her ability to turn literally anything into 'valuable' gold. Now, golden rubble can be found lying in war zones > u <
Ohhhhh. Very interesting story,i never thought Midas tale in this way:) I always focused in the punishment of him and not to what his ability mean for the rest of the world. I think if you expand the story as far as an illustrated book it would be very successful:) For sure in the cryptoworld;)
Thank you! I really want to but as I try, I realize how hard it is to keep the plots connected and consistent > u <
You can make short stories and subplots and when you feel comfortable you can try to combine them. I can find value in your consept and I think you should try it😊

So lovable so colorful so shining ^^ There are simple lines in this drawing but the color is so bright. Especially the eyes are so beautiful. What a frame it is! So matched well to express two girls inner world. Disney's character always makes me happy. Thank you ~~~
Thank you, @trueimagine! I have just recently learned how to make the eyes look like that and I'm glad you liked it! I thought hardly for the character design and thank god it matched their worlds! ♥

I like that you explain the thought process behind designing your characters, @kothy :) It makes the characters more personable :D These two looks like they are opposite each other but I can also see how they would complement each other well :)
I definitely will look forward to you drawing the promised dude character next !!! HAHAHA :D :D :D
Thank you, spidey! I'm glad I included the thought process then if it made them more personable! Opposite yet complementing! Exactly how I wanted! Oooh I got the dude ready :>
I thought I told you to use the name "Erotica" instead. It's much more interesting to know what that character could teach Midas.
I'd rather name her Leche Flan than Erotica, thanks > u <
