Tribute

The initial inspiration behind this piece was the colour scheme of the cover of issue 81 of ImagineFX magazine - black and yellow. I formed this image in my head of a female portrait with some vivid yellow headdress. The final image is fairly close to my original idea, but the colour scheme evolved somewhat.

With a little help from PlastikStars ([link]), I worked the idea over and over until I arrived at something I was happy with.

I imagine this girl to be a futuristic soldier, perhaps in ceremonial dress. Her lost gaze, towards the heavens, has a sense of finality about it. She is a tribute to a greater power, a sacrifice.

Hope you like it.
