Selkie in the Arctic Tundra - Comic Book Style

An epic splash-page illustration in a bold, modern comic-book style: a selkie in the Arctic tundra. The lithe figure stands on cracked ice and snow, wet fur gleaming, seal skin partly draped as a cloak at her hips, hinting at transformation between seal and human. Her breath forms frost as wind tears at her hair. The tundra around her is dotted with lichens and low shrubs; distant snow-draped mountains loom on the horizon, and a pale aurora arcs across a twilight sky. Thick black ink outlines, high-contrast colors, and halftone shading give a classic comic-book look. Palette of icy blues and whites with a warm amber-brown seal-skin, and purples in the aurora. Dynamic three-quarter view with wind-swept motion lines to convey power and speed. Mood: mythic, fierce, mysterious.
