The queen is alive

For a very long time (since Doomsday basically) I've had this whole concept of what Rose's life was like after the Doctor's left her. I never thought her life to be a very happy one after that. Feeling lost and abandoned she developed a love-hate dramatic relationship with Doctor's clone (who had some hard times himself with figuring out who he is), and to kill the guilt and regret she's thrown herself into her work in the Torchwood. Many years of fighting aliens and for aliens made her hard, determinate, tough director.
Here she is around fifteen years older, she's already a famous leader known also as "the Queen" (or "the Ice Queen", by those less fond of her). The lost eye and the scar on her jaw are just some of the many injuries she's got during the years. Despite all the wounds (flesh and soul) she stayed alive, defending the earth.

A speedpainting, 'cause finally I found a moment for myself between comissions, work and other stuff.
