I couldn't find a concrete answer for this. Attempts to recreate the art style of this game correctly have failed, as seen on posts on Reddit. In particular , in almost all Reddit posts made by users claiming to draw in the art style of this game, the art style doesn't resemble the actual art style properly.

I suppose it depends how good you are at art. I'm terrible, so it would be really hard for me to recreate

The art of Hades is really detailed. Definitely not something one can easily recreate unless they're very talented. The way Supergiant uses shading is also very unique, sort of reminding me of Hellboy comics.

That said, there has been some accurate fanart out there. Here's one by /u/Blindster13

That all depends on how good an artist you are. If you suck at art like I do it will be very difficult. If you're a talented artist, probably not so much.

Supergiant has one of the best art teams in the business, so I'm not surprised it's hard to do.

Just looking up pictures of it on Google images, it's a detailed artstyle with a rather unique shading style, one that I'd consider to bear some similarities to comic book art styles, but not quite the same. Namely it seems to use multi-banded cel shading for the characters with areas of black in specific places. That's just a super quick summary from an artist based on skimming through some pictures of the game. I think I'd find it difficult to recreate the style convincingly because there are more fine factors to the art style than the ones I mentioned here.
