Lara silently entering a pond for stealth. that was the scene that came to my mind. the arrow in her mouth and some of the grafiks in the back marking a positive upward direction and is used like an indication that leads to a lara silhouette in a pose that is like well known and is the ending point of her evolution. However her face with watering eyes, marks the beginning. Strong but vulnerable, that was the mood that i wanted to catch in her face.
the indicators in hte background may be a little bit too bright / distracting, but overall his is a wonderful piece, and the combination of her being strong and still vulnerable really shows, nicely done.
