Nice
At first I couldn't see the people's faces, but they became a little clear in full screen view. I think you meant for that to happen; nice job, by the way. I don't see many bad things in this, unless I take a close look, so I'm awarding a 10 and moving down by 1 star every time I see a flaw. (Yes, it's that good)
*look*
Okay, so the middle one looks very serious, especially with his helmet on and his arms in the defensive position; kudos for that. The helmet is very detailed, at least that's what it is like from a full screen view. All's well here.
The people on the left and right however, look a bit unnatural. The one on the right's face is looking as though he's been having a couple of drinks lately, due to the slightly drooped left lip, and his left arm's index finger is a tad away from the other fingers, and it seems he's preparing for a photo shoot rather than normal business as usual. It'd be better to have an "invisible" camera, so to speak, so that they don't "know" they're being 'watched'. A bit more natural, please?
There's a solemn look on the person on the right's face, and no drooping lip there; however, the arms do look a tad unnatural, as with the other guy. I know he's meant to be staring at the viewer, but it doesn't have to be *that* obvious, does it?
The background vaguely resembles that of a blurred light source (in this case, I'm reminded of the sun) which gives the people an aura of ghostliness. Good job on that one.
There's no ground, so the characters are virtually floating, but I saw the response you gave ("It was meant to be more symbolic than realistic") so I'm not going to take that into account, but rather say that you did depict the "Greekiness" of the people.
All in all, a nice piece of art. Kudos to AnimaTechnica for the costumes! They look really good! The bodies are in proportion and done correctly, something I often struggle with!
