The Bear and the Nightingale - Book Concept art

progress shots of my graduation project, illustrating/designing around the book The Bear and the Nightingale. This is Vasja, the main character of the book. It's a modern story that plays in medieval Kievan Rus' at the time that christianity comes in and attempts to rid the world of demons and spirits of the beliefs of old. Turns out, it's not that simple.
