Fire and Smoke and Crimelord

Description

This year I had every intention of starting and finishing my entry for my school's Commencement Art Competition well in advance of the deadline so I wouldn't be rushing at the last minute. And even though I DID started well in advance, I changed my mind several times and ended up doing most of the work the week beforehand. And even then, it ended up printing out a lot darker and losing detail, and I accidentally saved over PSD file so all 60 some layers are neatly compressed into one. Still, I'm very proud of how it came out, and I've been getting a lot of comments about it from people who went to the show (including the epic illustration teacher :D).

By the way, that central character is Drevir, the elf crimelord from my story-in-progress Whisper. I had originally included his facial stripes, but I ended up leaving them out because I felt like it just looked better that way.

characters/story/art are (c) to me, don't use without permission.

An elf crime lord, how interesting! Her certainly has a streak of confidence about him. I love the composition of this image, the angles give alot of impact and you've managed to give alot of story to the imagination whilst making a lovely overall image with the colours, expressions and background. It looks very cinematic, like a great shot from the middle of a film :)
