Hel the goddess of hell-Cd cover

This is my fourth album covers "Hel"
For those of you who are not so well informed about Nordic mythology, this is the goddess Hel who rules over Hell.
She has one side of the body beautiful and alive and the other death and corpse blue.

I wanted to capture the earthy feeling but also make her respectable as the goddess but also show her vulnerability considering her past. I chose the earthly colors in the background, and in her hair to represent her earthly ownership. Given that she controls the underworld

As you can see, I have tried some new style since the previous album covers.
And retained some things that I liked from the old ones.
I must mention that I have really struggled with this picture a long time. I really did not want to have this picture centered and tried everything as possible.
Many were good ideas that I saw would not work.
So by chance did I opened my previous work the day before yesterday and then decided that I had to finish the picture and simply have it centered fixed. That I wanted to avoid.
But hey ho, and so I threw myself in and started to tear off the colors of the image and slowly but surely grew.
I feel that I am really happy with this picture, mainly coloring but also the layout.

I hope to have attracted your interest in Nordic mythology, and made ​​a nice and interesting picture
