elemental

I follow a tumblr called Weekly Art Challenges, and the last one was to create a character based on an element from the periodic table. 

I picked Promethium, and used this description (from here) for inspiration:

The discoverers proposed the name “prometheum” (the spelling was subsequently changed), derived from Prometheus, the Titan in Greek mythology who stole fire from Mount Olympus and brought it down to humans, to symbolize “both the daring and the possible misuse of mankind’s intellect.”
