Original: Fire and Ice

The original concept was for one of the conceptart.org forum challenges ( 'Ying and Yang' ), but I was incredibly busy and had no hope of finishing at the time. I managed to get it done in time for Swancon though, so I was able to display an A2 print of it in the Swancon art gallery over the Easter weekend.

The concept is Yin and Yang, though I wanted to do two opposing 'elements' other than light and dark, so I chose fire and ice.
