Description
Most Beloved.

Guess who just finished The Song of Achilles and managed to eke out enough motivation to finish this ridiculously dramatic illustration, which, to be completely fair, I was working on on and off even before I’d started reading TSoA, and was influenced by a variety of other influences such as a giant Klimt art book snagged from the library and the Bucky Barnes/St. Sebastian parallels outlined in @spitandvinegar ‘s beautiful fic “Ain’t No Grave (Can Hold My Body Down.)”
Anyway slowly trying to make more and more complex stuff in this style! Color is always kind of a mystery to me but hoping I could make it work in this case without relying too much on fancy lines, although as you can see above I just couldn’t help myself with a thin gold outline, hehe. Hope you all enjoy
