The background these characters are in are supposed to display some aspect of their personality (for instance, in this image he is surrounded by rocks and lightning is striking his sword and vines wrapping around his leg, yet the fact that he is still standing strong is supposed to show that he is brave and fearless). I would have uploaded my other image as well, yet unfortunately the pic did not save correctly. 
I will post it when I can scan it in again tomorrow hopefully.... Also, these images will be painted in Photoshop, and then of all of the characters I do, one of the female characters will be modeled in 3D (and this will serve as the female character I did not finish awhile back).~C.G.P.
Hopefully soon I can post my female concept sketch...it is a little better proportioned, I think.
Also, the "wrappings" around her legs won't be white, so don't worry, she will not resemble a mummy! :p They are going to be black, kind of like the ones I posted in my first sketch of her awhile back...also, only one of these characters is going to be modeled for my class (which is this girl character I just posted). The others are just concept artworks I need to digitally paint for the course I am taking at college. I am also posting them in case anybody wants to model any of my concept characters. Just give me credit for coming up with the idea. 
This character is based off of myself, and some other ones will be based on other students in my Comp. Art class. This is the one that will be modeled in 3D though for the course. Any feedback or advice is greatly appreciated!
