I got inspired one night to paint a beautiful empress who looks as evil as she does kind.
I have my own story in mind for this image but I want the viewer to interpret there own story. I want the viewer to also question what her emotions could be.
I painted this image in Photoshop. No references were used. I spent a lot of time on this image working on her skin especially. Painting the solders in the background was a bit tedious as well but fun at the same time.
shee loks rather confident and pleased in an unmoved manner, her cold evil schemes are obviously progressing as she planned, but in her eyes there is great amibitions still
