I modified it a bit. Colors and Values I think are the skills that I lack more...I tried to adjust it a bit, I felt more satisfied. I think I have learned something. In the end I just decided to drop some random background, was inspired by egypt ? Or it was the Oracle of Neverending story ? probabl both. She remind me a sphinks in some way.
I opted for another bird/human/ horse (goat ?) chimera. I feel I need to push birds and muscled legs.. Also the pose helped me to get back from memory about human upper torso (delts, trapzius teris ecc..). I started whit a simple gesture, I keep realizing how much a good gesture it's the basic, then i added skeleton, muscles, and a volume study, in the last I put lineart on and corrected whtat looked wrong. I didn't had the time to add values and colours and even to end wings, I leave that's for another day.
ooh a horse bird! intriguing!
Getting back on it I corrected the perspective, then I studied values (I need this sooo much) and whit values I realized other errors on face anatomy and arms. Corrected these then I applied some gradiet map, I decided to lose some values but I think the resut was good enough (i used too much values probably)
is not a simple horse bird ! it's a goat bird woman whit the special power to make you understand non euclidean geometries whit a simple word ! (i am joking in the end i got tired, i lost connection whit reality drawing at 3 am )
haha! its pretty awesome tho!
it's some step further, let's keep the grind on !

A wip for a commission
progression....
oh this looks so professional!
Nice! shading, geometry, details, it all looks just right. Love the colors selections as well.
Thanks...studies made the difference... sometimes I wonder how much I learned and how much still have to learn...
still working on the commission...
Seems like a lot of work. If you odn't mind sharing, what is the comissions?
some graphic for a indie game , in particular a modular map of town, very simple some generic houses and some special ones.
Ooooh, I see, that makes sense on how you have it laid out. Looks really nice!
