Description Bear with me, my brain's a bit fried! 6+ hours non-stop, I was too curious to see how it'd come out.

I was talking some time ago with a friend about why I'm hesitant to put blood in story scenes, especially Disney. I sort of arrived at the conclusion that I can do as I please, but I'd better still be happy with it a year from now. I figure what's a better reason than the Trojan War?

I had this great background scene, with a fire and a stray cat and the horse, and Homer reporting in on the scene... but it became more and more about Cassandra's tragedy. I love the movie and the series, but that line "and that's the gospel truth" always got to me!

We have:

Odysseus
Ajax
Cassandra
Helen
Paris- yes, Paris, in the show he looks an awful lot like Adonis
Agamemnon
Achilles
The Muses- Clio (history), Melpomene (tragedy)

CS3, and watching loads of ''Hercules: the animated series'

Ive had the same thoughts of the tragic endings to the light characters of the TV show, and this art really captures it

I am not going to lie, it’s hard to find that one episode that has Paris. Everyone episode is there...but the tragedy of the Trojan War...and it was primarily the fault of so many.

Can do. And really, great job, you really captured the look.Maybe Ajax could have looked 10% more evil, but otherwise, as The Stooges, would say, POIFECT!!!!

I'm sorry I took so long in getting back to you, but glad to hear you can see the picture now! If you could credit the picture to 'Sarah Schwarting' and link back to my DA account that'd be great.

Adonis died too. Or is this more connected with the Trojan War?

I've got this sketch lying around with Aphrodite and Adonis, I just have yet to ink it! I plan on eventually getting to everyone from the show...well, here's hoping!

It's pretty tough to make something this colorful dark still. Good job. :3

Thanks, it was important for me to keep it bright, since the series is all about straight-out-of-the-tube hues.

I heard they took it on in the forums. I can't find it on youtube, would you happen to know the series title?

Yeah, it'd have to be bad for Cassandra to be shaken, I tried to leave the overall situation vague.

So...these are characters from the animated series? Cool - I haven't seen that series yet, and I originally thought these were your OC designs.

Great job on the Trojan War pic - it's definitely an interesting story to work with.

The animated series ran for 50-something odd episodes. It's by the same writers and has the same voice actors, and really it's suprisingly witty (loads of in-jokes and such). I have to rank it second to Gargoyles...

Thanks! I really had a lot of fun coming up with poses for them, and it's the first time I've worked with such bright colors.
