Artist's Comments

A Central Asian Turkish female warrior, nothing special, she is only a warrior. I only wanted to draw a Gokturk warrior. Maybe I will draw her male version.

For curious people :
On the left corner, traditional Chinese writing means Tujue - in medieval Chinese sources, Gokturks called as Tujue

On the sword's scabbard, the old Gokturk writing means Tengri (Tanrı in modern Turkish, God in English)

On the spear, the motif is azure dragon - the color blue has a special meaning for Turks

On her shoulder, the motif is wolf - wolf is very important in Turkish Mythology

Bir Osmanlı sevdasıdır gidiyor, Osmanlı da Osmanlı...Okulda da cok gordum, gunluk hayatımda da.. Ben Osmanlıyı sevmem, nedense Orta Asya Turklerine karsı bir ilgim vardır. Ben atalarımı Osmanlı olarak degil de Orta Asya Turkleri olarak gorurum. Bilmem neden, hosuma gitmiyor Osmanlı kulturu. Ama Orta Asya Turklerine bakın, Uygurlar, Hunlar, Gokturkler... Hepsi birbirinde guzel medeniyetlerdi, kulturuyle insanıyla..
Gecenlerde bir arastırma yapmıstım, dogru duzgun bir seyler bulamadım Gokturklerle ilgili, ayip biraz bu. Bir tane resim yok onlarla ilgili. Resim olarak bir tane Kul Tigin büstü var, o kadar. Yazı olarak da birkac hakanın 'kısa' hayat hikayesi ve Orhun Yazıtları.. Onun uzerine cizdim bu resmi de, umarım bir gun internette cogalır Orta Asya Turkleri ile ilgili bilgiler...
Elinizdekileri paylasmanızı da isterim sizden, bizim (bence) gercek kulturumuz Orta Asya Turkleri. Ah cok yazdım gene, niye yazmaya baslayınca duramıyorum.

I really like the design, and the picture is well done also.

Thanks,
these days I turned to my real culture. Our origin is more important, I understood this. We (this includes every people all over the world) have to keep our original culture alive..

And also special thanks for adding me your friends list, this is really cool to be watching by a good artist like you ^^

NP. Being a "mildly popular" dev I've always got time to make new friends here.

Performance art is never the answer, but sometimes it's the punchline.
