Requesting two realistic illustrations for a short (freeware) game

Hi!
I'm looking for someone to do two realistic illustrations for a short freeware game titled "Thanatophobia".

ABOUT THE GAME:

The game has mature themes. It deals with death anxiety and drug addiction. 

It's a text parser game where you chat with a person suffering from mental illness and try to solve her problem. The game is actually a chatbot and a game at the same time. Seemingly open-ended but there is a winning condition.

The game will be freeware and (hopefully) playable on the web.

It's most of the way complete. Took me two weeks to write and possibly I'll have it online and playable in one more week.

WHAT IT NEEDS:

Although the game is text-based, I would like to have two pieces of color art displayed. I'm looking for a dark and realistic style of illustration. If you feel like doing extra art beyond these two pieces that would be awesome, but I won't push my luck.

Illustration 1:
The first illustration should be a first-person view down a long endless hallway. The floor is checkered like a black & white chess board. The walls can be featureless. This hallway is later revealed to be a hospital corridor, but that shouldn't be too obvious at first.

Standing in the the hallway in the distance is a lone hooded figure in black. Something grim reaperish will work here, or perhaps something like the purple-robed Los Illluminati enemies in Resident Evil 4. The figure is holding nothing, simply standing still, looking directly at the viewer. The hood covers all of the face except the mouth. The lips have a blueish tint. This figure represents death, BUT is later revealed to be the same young woman the story is about, so s(he) can't be too big nor tall nor masculine.

Illustration 2:
You have more freedom on this one :)  I would like a portrait of a young modestly attractive woman from about the shoulders up to display upon game completion--the young women whose mental illness you helped solve. Her hair is semi-short or shoulder length (or something else if you think it would be better). What she's wearing doesn't matter so much; a black t-shirt will do, but most of it isn't visible anyway. She's neither smiling nor frowning. Her facial features are otherwise up to you. 

If you'd like to do a 3rd illustration that I can use as advertising/concept art I would leave that entirely up to you. 

This is for a free game and I can't pay for your work, but it would be greatly appreciated! 
Thanks for reading.
