Early look at Orpheus Hartshorn’s design for Hathor, Goddess of Love. Her caramel skin has a tan dress wrapped around it, a belt adorned with red jewels, and many other gold accessories on her body with the same jewels. She holds a mirror sacred to her and wears a necklace also sacred to her. However, her most eye-catching feature is the giant, red sun floating between her horns above her head.
