Character Design

Some of my Character Designs, all of which are parts of a story I'm working on.

My Master Piece (Digital Arts)

I love this one! I have exagerated the known story of Maidens Tower and photo-manipulated it as seen below. I am working on a painting version of this one.

There are many legends about the construction of the tower and its location. According to the most popular Turkish legend, a sultan had a much beloved daughter. One day, an oracle prophesied that she would be killed by a venomous snake on her 18th birthday. The sultan, in an effort to thwart his daughter's early demise by placing her away from land so as to keep her away from any snakes, had the tower built in the middle of the Bosphorus to protect his daughter until her 18th birthday. The princess was placed in the tower, where she was frequently visited only by her father.
On the 18th birthday of the princess, the sultan brought her a basket of exotic sumptuous fruits as a birthday gift, delighted that he was able to prevent the prophecy. Upon reaching into the basket, however, an asp that had been hiding among the fruit bit the young princess and she died in her father's arms, just as the oracle had predicted. Hence the name Maiden's Tower.

We are Murderers of our own

Here is another photo-manipulation of mine that was completed a few years ago.

The Uncertainty of Our Fluidized Lives

Here is another photo-manipulation I had completed a few years ago.

Life Pursuit v1.0

This is a photomanipulation work that I have completed a few years ago. I used photoshop to bring my imagination to life. Hope you like it.
(Recently I have completed a painting version of this one. I'll post it later.)

On the left, you see the Ephesus, symbolizing the ancient times and on the right there is the Yokohama silhouette that represents the future.The hour glass reflects the life-time of a man, while there are a number of skulls inside a hole describing the after-life. The Ankh also known as key of life is the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic character that symbolizes the eternal-life. The protagonist here is in a pursuit of living, where we see a man at the back who couldn't cling to life.
