@@Unclaimeddemigod True, true.

[@sadieconstable2926]

I personally think that even though the original official art kind of matches the 7's age, they look more like 10 and 11-year-olds than mid-teenagers. I just think the art depicted them as younger than they should have been shown, though I do agree that they look less godly and (some of them) look more like the average teenager.

[@puppies3330]

I think the reason we all prefer viria’s is because 1) it’s just so good compared to this art (no offense) 2)this is speculation,but the brighter colours might’ve helped along with the fresh looks 3)they’re hot 4)they’re accurate to the books more 5)(speculation) maybe the expressions are accurate?

[@crimson2003]

7:09 Considering the owl is one of Athena's symbols, that actually makes sense, LOL. Also, I just have to say that the Magnus Chase characters have the worst old official art. The only decent one is Samirah's, and I don't like that she has hair sticking out of her hijab, since hijabs are worn to cover the hair, which significantly lowers my opinion on the art. I also may be the only person here who likes Leo's old art.

[@crimson2003]

@@Unclaimeddemigod The new one is a lot better, but I just love his smile. It's honestly just like I imagined.

[@emmaalexander712]

I think the problem with a lot of the drawings of the kids is that, to me, their faces look too old. Like, take the Nico one for example. It looks like a 40-year-old man's face pasted on a 10-year-old's body. Same for Grover's whole face and Annabeth's mouth in particular. The large foreheads are a big contributor to this problem by making it look like these young teens have receding hairlines or something.
