A girl with a light

What can I say about this image? I thought the concept could be quite nice, but I was looking for a different kind of illumination and atmosphere. I got a bit tired with the background and wanted to start some other drawing, and now I see so many mistakes I'd try to avoid for next time... It's always interesting to check your old illustrations out and see what must have gone wrong. I feel like trying a similar one again! Let's see how it goes.

Athania. Some characters




Some characters I designed a while ago for a story set up in a distopic future, Athania. Elves and humans are fighting each other to conquer the Earth, control its resources and kill or enslave the other race. When I have some time, the idea is adding up some colours and write some longer story for each one of them.
Athania, the first one, is an elf and an accomplished politician.
Phileas is the leader of the humans and quite charismathic, but too ruthless for my taste.
The Seer is an enigmatic girl who has no pupils in her eyes and is said that can foresee the future, though the reality is quite different.

Lena Öztürk




A high-class businesswoman from the late 21st century, called Yelena Öztürk. Mixed Turkish and Russian ancestry. 
A self-made woman, makes millions selling “citizenship services” (a mixture of insurance, military protection and Mafia-style favours) in a Balkanised, stateless world. Well-traveled, smart, ruthless, half diplomat and half entrepreneur. 
A strong personality, great business sense and sharp intelligence – paired with an implanted AI assistant. 
Her current mission – sell citizenship to the most difficult client possible, the independent and fabulously propsperous orbital settlers of space station Paraphernalia.
