Description
This picture is based on a game called "Iji." It's an excellent indie game that sports old-school, side-scrolling, action/adventure game play.The character herself I fell in love with. After undergoing an experimental surgery to heighten her abilities, she wakes from a six-month coma to the ruin of a planet Earth. She is one of the last remaining humans alive, and in hopes of saving her home fights against armies of genocidal, alien invaders to save what still remains. Along the way, she questions the humanity in her actions: to spare the lives of those that hunt her, or to annihilate all that get in her way.
That's all I'll mention about the game's plot. Feel free to look into it. [link]

Magnificent rendition of the Human Anomaly. Go, Iji!

Heh, I just noticed the lights on the top of the gun for which weapon she's using. Depending on what's up or down, it looks like she's about to either kick someone Jedi-force-style, or make them explode with an MPFB.

I loved that game. I went off and killed everything in sight just to do it once, otherwise I go as peaceful as I can. Got no kills once 
I noticed she loses it after so many kills....

And if you let Dan die, she pretty much cracks completely for the rest of the game. Nice touch by Daniel Remar, I say.

Whoa, your avatar told me to add a comment after I favorite'd the picture
I like the visualization of Iji's nano armor protecting her from weaker shots. Good job with this.

No wonder the Tasen ended up crapping themselves even when you don't kill anyone! She just won't stop...
Love the artwork!

Awesome. Wonderful in style and detail... a masterpiece.

You did awesome with the nanofield and nanoweapon. I love how you showed that there are 8 types of ammunition it can shoot with the 8 little lights on top. That's a nice touch

This looks amazing! The visible nanoshield is a really nice touch. I have just tried the game recently and it was an awesome experience. This is an awsome protrayal of an awesome character in an awesome game you drew here.

Heh, thanks, the game still stands as one of my favorites of all times.

This is so beautiful. ^^ The colors are marvelous, especially the shield. Judging by the fact that she's using a resonance reflector and is crying while charging into battle, I guess she's a pacifist here?

Holy crap the attention to detail in this... Congratulations, you actually drew the character, not just what she looked like. I'm amazed...

Well done! I just got to Sector 8, and I love the game. This is brilliant art that depicts what I imagined she would look like if the game had better graphics (not that it sucks). As I said, well done!

Like everyone else has said, awesome work! Especially on all the little details, and the reflector shield.
Her tears nicely blend in with the shield colours, making quite an interesting effect. I like her flowing hair as well.
My one complaint is that her foot looks rather odd. Hard to describe, it just seems flat and wonky-looking.
Still, awesome work!

Ah, got me, I was sort of expecting things like that somewhere down the line. It's what happens when you spend most of your time working at 200% zoom. Good eyes.
Thanks

Whoa. I mean, whoa. This is amazing. Although pretty much all I wanted to say was summed up by Rixanu up there. This really is the best Iji fanart I've seen yet. Good job!

Heh, thank you, I'll keep up the intensity with other works that follow.

Very nice. Not only is is beautiful, but it also conveys the story and emotion very well for those who have played the game before. By the way, I like the minor details, like lights on the gun. (I'm assuming they indicate the weapon chosen). Excellent work!

Thanks, and yes, the weapon she's currently equipped should be the Resonance Reflector. I took a few liberties in its functionality and cool-down time.

This is... totally amazing. Seriously, I hope that you wan draw more stuff about Iji because this is very beautiful.

If I do, it'll have to wait until I've beaten the game without murdering anyone. I'm curious on how the story would unravel this way.

Wow, this is simply amazing work. Really, every part of it is just great.

Thanks, it was an eye-opener to see how far I've come since my last deviation.

OH GOD, THIS IS THE BEST IJI FAN ART I'VE SEEN TO DATE. I'm amazed at the fidelity of the particle effects and the nuance of her expression, very striking.

Thanks, I spent 2 hours experimenting with lighting and shading before things started working out for Iji.
