George R.R. Martin is my new favourite fantasy author. :)

This is Lyanna Stark from Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series. Not much is known of her, since she only appears in flashbacks, and there's a lot of speculation regarding her life (and death) among fans. The symbolism in this pic is based on a popular theory.

Read the books. ASoIaF is probably the best fantasy series out there.

(More character portraits coming soon, hopefully.)

great pic. Seeing her I understand, why a war broke out because of her.

Wonderful work, your Lyanna looks like a very interesting girl. Actually, I can't wait for Mr Martin to reveal the whole story - he's been teasing us with that doomed love triangle for years.
Nice work with the symbols, too. I just wonder what that chain beneath the Baratheon stag means.
Also - fantastic shading - but I think you're aware of that already.

Here she stands unchained after struggle an new beginning, my first tought about

I think that the chains underneath the stag of Baratheon suggest that she is bound to marry Robert since she is his betrothed, but the skull under the Targaryen banner represents her death with Rhaegar.

i really like it. it has a dark atmosphere that matches with Lyanna's story and her secret that only she and Ned knew.

Oh my goodness, that is the best depiction of Lyanna I have ever seen. Thank you for being so creative, especially with the memento mori beneath the Targaryen standard. It gave me shivers to look at this, just like reading the series does. Well done!!!!
