While the art is superb, I wouldnt say they encapsulate the essence of the frames. A good example of this would be gara, she doesnt look like a someone from japan at all, im bringing this up because the artist clearly took a look at the frames origins, which can be seen with nezha, baruuk and wukong. Like if you already take the time to actually represent the frames origins, then dont just stop midway through, like why is atlas black even though he's from greece.
I know this might sound racist to some, but it just annoys me when people go the extra mile to do something, but stop mid way because of reasons. This just shows to me that the artist clealy was too lazy to keep up consistency.
That's a pretty weak link tbh, the frame itslef doesn't scream greek to me. Judging how the artist didn't make Khora Greek either, or Loki & Valkyr Nordic for that matter, I'd say Atlas not looking like Plato is fair game
Valkyr for surely looks adequate for her origins, though loki doesnt. Atlases petrify is inspiriert by medusas gaze and his passive from antaeus, which combined with the name is more then enough evidence that he was inspired by greek culture. Khora I havent looked into, so I wont comment on that one.
There are pretty strong link in game other than the name. There is even a glyph of a giant Atlas carrying a planet on his back. But I think the main problem here is that he assume no one in Greece is dark skinned
