This piece took me a long time, and I even had to restart! The client gave me a short description of each characters back story, their clan, history, and the war as well as a Youtube video and instructed me to come up with an image based on the information provided.

I tell ya, I must've been wracking my head for about three days trying to figure something out, and when I finally did Ravensbane (the client) was very supportive on the idea, which sprouted forth to the illustration you see before you! Definitely the most emotional, inspired, meaningful and symbolic piece I have ever done. Ever.
