Hello!
Darkness has always been a little more appealing than light for me, so in this contest i will
be participating on the dark side of art.
For this contest i will be creating "The devourer of the deep blue", the grim reaper of the abyssal ocean who won't stop her hunger until the seven seas become a massive graveyard.
I gathered a lot of references and created my moodboard:
At the begining of my creative process i got the art block.
One of the problems i have been seeing a lot with digital media is the ease for distraction
material to prevent us from creating our stuff. So this time, i decided i would approach my concept in a very different and a little analogous way.
I looked for all the material in my room i could use to create a physical mock-up of my character and this are the things i gathered:
Next, i proceded to create the closest thing to the image in my mind (with a lot of imagination) and then took a picture of it:
So, i took the photo into photoshop and after some hours of deep photomanipulation i finally got my concept done:
So this it what i do whenever i do not know how to start, try to break a little of the rules of my main workflow in order to get a different result and overcome the artistic blocking.
I can't wait to start sculpting!
Cheers!
