Project Runway &#39; and all the creative challenges each week gave me a hankering for my days in Fashion Design. From there I decided I wanted to put the outfit on a conceptual character of my making, I have no name for her, but I know she has certain powers - the central being shamanic healer and warrior. This piece further developed as I became inspired by several books and movies, Inkheart, Too Many Curses and Jasmyn, to name the main ones. original size 2465x3965: Close Up Deatail&#39;s can be seen on: http://wynterskye.deviantart.com/art/Within-The-Pages-detail-150485473 Resources used from dA: Reconstruction_Stock: http://reconstruction-stock.deviantart.com/art/Swiss-Infantryman-Img-022-71166846 AJK-Original-Stock: http://ajk-original-stock.deviantart.com/ Adaae-stock: http://adaae-stock.deviantart.com/ Holy-Win: http://holy-win.deviantart.com/ jesuisautre: http://jesuisautre.deviantart.com/ Ecathe: http://ecathe.deviantart.com/ unholy-stock: http://unholy-stock.deviantart.com/ Shooflystock: http://shoofly-stock.deviantart.com/ skinywitch: http://skinywitch.deviantart.com/ coldstock: http://coldstock.deviantart.com/art/Crown-2-Stock-2-102062993 Theshelfs: http://theshelfs.deviantart.com/ Superior-Stock: http://superior-stock.deviantart.com/ falln-stock: http://falln-stock.deviantart.com/ http://obsidiandawn.com <p>This is the first &quot;sci-fi&quot; type piece I&#39;ve ever tried - I found the little gizmo&#39;s and wiring etc..hard to make, but I think they came out alright.</p> <p>I was partially inspired by the days of good old, Buck Rogers, Battle Star Gallactica, Logans Run, the original Star Trek, Lost in Space etc... and some B-grade &quot;apocalyptic&quot; sci-fi movies that I was probably the only one to enjoy </p> <p>Mixed Media with CS2 and tablet</p> <p>Stock pics and ref images: istockPhoto.com, stock xchung, mjranum:&nbsp; <a href="http://mjranum-stock.deviantart.com/">http://mjranum-stock.deviantart.com/</a><br />Background purchased at Renderosity. <br /></p> <p>Well I was hoping this piece would speak for itself,<br />I grieve for the world, is it too late for our home?

The over all look was Rococo/Baroque pin-up fantasy inspired with some Japanese style mixed in. Photo manipulated with much digital painting. My own face and body parts used as well as a reference for painting the body pose.
