I’m reading Percy Jackson, in the book they were called “The 3 Fates” And they were depicted as 3 old women with a giant sock, some string and scissors.

Well that teaches you to not believe everything you read. Especially when it comes thousands of years after the original. Go get a book on ancient mythology, there are plenty and some are also entertaining, maybe to a greater extent than Percy Jackson adventures. Also understand that Percy Jackson is a modern adaptation of the core myth in order to construct a new story, meant for an American and English speaking audience and hence accordingly flavored or even altered. Keep in mind that authors and cinematographers, artists, comic books, seem to have a really hard time adapting materials concering a couple of centuries old, imagine thousands and million years ago.
P.S. I can't seriously fathom that you seem to believe what the Percy Jackson novels feeds you without any research or logical thinking, btw. The Internet can be an enormous library for valuable info if you use it properly and places like Wikipedia are more reliable than some accuse them for, most of the time they get the details spot on. However there are other sources as well. And propably your parents could help as well if you asked them to verify your reading sources.
P.S.2 For clarification purposes, "Moirai" is an ancient Greek word that is translated in English as "fates" btw(plural of the singular form "Moira" where the name derives from)

The Fates are some of my favorite mythological figures! I love the imagery of a literal thread of life.
The art style and color choice in this piece are amazing! Great work

Very nice and beautiful. I love the dark purple and blackish color theme as they are rumored to be the daughters of Nyx- Primordial of Night and Erebus- Primordial of Darkness.

This is such a fascinating part of the mythology, and your take on them is exquisite! I'm curious to see how you'll draw the Norns....

Beautiful yet neutral, striking yet simple. Just the way the Fates should be.

Elles sont superbe, celles qui tiennent le fil de la vie et qui peuvent le couper à tout moment.
Une très belle illustration ^^

I love it!!
I love to see so many fine depictions of Greek mythos- it helps me recover from the agony of what Disney did to them.

Thank you ♥
I think Disney combined them with the Graeae (the Grey sisters) who are old and who share one eye and one tooth in some versions ^^

You're very welcome!
Yeah, there's a lot of cringe-inducing stuff. Hera being Herc's mother... that's... I mean...aaagh!
