Thanks, I really wanted it to come off that way!

Excellent Design Work! Hey is that Cher?!!! Lol, no it's the Goddess Eriu (though, ironically, I do get alot of comments about my art looking like cher- it's rather weird) Wikipedia explains who Erui is best: "In Irish mythology, Ériu (/ˈeːrʲu/), daughter of Ernmas of the Tuatha...
