A Survivor is Born

I want to dedicate this piece to the two of the greatest people I know - and . _{OK, don’t kill me, guys. I know you would prefer dedication of some old TR parts (and definitely not TR 2011), but I have a reason for that. You remember what we were talking about like a couple of weeks ago? I already was working on this piece at that time and surprisingly that endless conversations were very inspirational, hence there’s your merit in the process of creation. For the rest of people who still can’t understand what the hell am I talking about, just skip this part, it’s more like a private joke.}

OK, so obviously this artwork is a tribute to the upcoming Tomb Raider 2011 which is a reboot of the whole TR franchise and which is treated with a part of negativism by a lot of fans, as far as I’ve noticed. And initially I was planning a long, passionate excusatory speech (don’t panic ), but eventually changed my mind. If you’re enjoying constantly complaining about all the changes and innovation, who am I to change that.

And I guess with this art finally finished I’m forced to take a little creative break, ‘cause I badly need to work on my degree work. This piece have taken ridiculous amount of time, and hiding in the university behind every plant/mop/fellow student’s back from my professor is not cool anymore. Cheers!

And from now I’ll be telling you my inspirational song if there was any. A lot of people seemed to like this idea, so here we go:
