  • Thank you! I finally cleaned that up. Meanwhile started 3 more ..I have a habit of taking too long to finish a piece, then I lose interest in it and just start something else. I found 8 from recently i started and abandoned, that are decent enough to not delete, but not finished. There’s also been a number of drawings I felt I “outgrew” - became better before I finished them, and it would be easier to start from scratch than fix them. Anyone else thinking that?
  • Lady Death Fanart Collectible: Part 6 Polypaint and base Hi, it’s time to share with you another part of the process to create this fanart piece. Polypaint As this is my first collectible fanart I didn’t have previous experience with polypaint so I tried my best and played a bit with it.I wanted to give a ghostly and eerie look to Lady Death, she is beautiful and deadly, but at the end of the day she is a woman that died and was reborn at hell as an avenging spirit, that’s why I gave her skin tone a bluish very cold tone.As you will see I gave myself some creative freedom to deviate from the traditional color scheme that this characater has in comics and illustrations.To add a bit of sensuality by painting some freckles on the face and the chest. The dark nature of this character was the perfect excuse to gave her a kind of goth make up, very dark shadows around the eyes, blue lips and fingernails. I know that the original character includes sexy red lips but I wanted this girl to have a sexy but at the same time creepy look, that’s why we can see some thin veins emanating from her eyes. The biggest chromatic change I did for this character is at the hair. Lady Death has a characteristic white weavy hair but in my fanart I decided to gave her a very saturated blue color.The reason behind this wasn’t only an aesthetic choice. I want that the face area strongly pulls the attention of the viewer so this area needed a stronger contrast. Another reason is that I want her to have a more modern look, as I mentioned before, I’m strongly attracted to women with goth/punk look. I gave myself half an hour or more to analyse the work of experienced sculptors that create collectibles and I discovered that the use of darker values on the skin is often applied to create a greater sense of volume and three-dimensionality. I found that areas with heavy ambient occlusion are the perfect places to paint with darker colors in order to increase the separation between different forms. Even though she has a bluish skin tone, I used a bit of warmer hues in areas that, in real life, tend to go towards red and pink, this is very obvious in the nose, cheeks, and knuckles. Thinking with a logical mind it’s completely absurd to have warmer tones on the body of a zombie like creature but I didn’t want to limit myself by using only blue tones, it looks boring and artificial. In real life these colors are created by blood vessels in areas where the skin is very thin. ** Scythe **for her weapon I applied a cool gray with some warmer variations, this color scheme is influenced by the work of H.R giger. Base I’d like to talk about the design for the base which, to be honest, I forgot to develop along with the character.My main idea with the base is to show that Lady Death inhabits a very sterile and arid land, at the end of the day she is at hell.You can see a that she walks over dirt and rocks, a sign that she’s surrounded by death and loneliness. As part of the landscape we can see some bones and skulls to reinforce the idea of lack of living creatures, yet we can see three hands that try to reach her legs.This hands represent that all creatures are subordinated to her power and seek an evil blessing with a simple touch of the princess of the damned.1- The hand with skin burns represents the souls of those who are newcomers to hell, tortured souls that suffer for the sins comitted on earth.2- The hand with greenish rotten skin and pustules is the reminder of the decay that has infected the souls of those who have been trapped and have forgotten their humanity3- Last but not least, the hand of a demon shows that even dark creatures and entities bow before her presence. The cherry on the top, at least in my vision, are the simese twins that emerge from the ground, this malevolent creatures remind us that in hell there’s only perversion and any trace of innocence is lost. Thanks for reading till this pointI’m really happy to be very close to finish this creative journey, last but not least it’s mandatory to talk about splitting the sculpture in several pieces to be printed, this will be my last entry before showing the final rendered images. See yaMay Zbrush be with you

  • Hello! My name is Vithor, I am from Brazil, studied Design at a local college worked as an illustrator for more than 10 years. I took a time off around 3 years ago and am trying to get back in my art shape and maybe become professional again. Here are some recent pictures: You can find timelapses for most of them on my instagram: www.instagram.com Vithor Albertim (@vithor_albertim) • Instagram photos and videos 123 Followers, 638 Following, 19 Posts - See Instagram photos and videos from Vithor Albertim (@vithor_albertim) Comments and critiques are always welcome.Cheers!
  • @patrycja.lerch Thank you I created another variant, which might capture the witch look I was going for better
  • Thank you @daceronine! If I remember I save in google cloud, I will have to stick a note to do it more often. Lamp is from life. Poses are from refs but I look at refs for a while and then try to do it myself and look it up if needed. Outfits and rest is from imagination Something went wrong while installing system so we will have to wipe everything again... pc works but something is wrong. We will wait till internet is done and I will save everything on cloud this time Threads came out in eu. It's been 3 days and I had more engagement than after half a year on instagram. It feels really nice I hope it stays this way A portrait of old dude. It's the same character I posted a while ago. Inspired by Bayard Wu work. At first I thought of him as a bear but I named him Fenrir and I think wolf suits him better. Eye gave me a bit of hard time but I think it is fine now. I focused on face and forgot about area below. The way I draw hair clashes with greying hair. I had the same problem while doing Lohse's white hair. Does it looks like it is greying here? I love how desaturated red looks blue there. I keep lying to myself that I will use different color scheme but It all comes down to this blue and yellowish one it is just flipped this time Have a great day!

Hello! It's good to here again. I hope this time i will performing better.
Last time (artwar 1), i tried to create some really smooth and rendered piece. Resulting something what looks worst then the concepts. It was a good lesson. Now i will try to care less for other participants and comparing theirs arts to mine.
That's why i spent 10 days to think about only the concept idea of my champion, without checking any of the participants'. Giving birth to...


PARTEM the CASTAWAY LIGHTSPAWN

SIDE: LIGHT


The Main Concept:
Partem was a captain of a glory lightspawn legion. The symbol of justice.
On day he chose a moral decision over the laws. The judges exiled him for demonstrating the inportance of "holy rules". He didn't regret the result.

He marks the way
in the darkest place.
Even tought the exile,
the light shines inside.
Pathmaker of outposts,
Whom we have lost.

omg, a horrible and childish poem.
Thank God, it's a drawing event!

"The Light shines inside"

Imagine a human being, having light instead of blood in veins.
Skin, nails and clothes are holding back the light. In turn, eyes, holes like mouth, ears or nose,
major veins and scars are let the light visible.


mini concept No. 1:
NOTES FOR ME:

  • Holes on clothes works well. Lets trought some light.
  • Dark clothes for contrast. But not pure black! Maybe some metal reflecting light
  • NO HOOD!!! looks like a necromancer...
  • This guy could be the main light source on the final art.
  • Be clever with brightness and contrast. Easy to lose detalis.


mini concept No. 2:
NOTES FOR ME:

  • Bones are not lighting. Those can be barely visible trought the skin.
  • Dirt can hold back light. Could make some nice contrast.
  • nails can be lighter.
  • WOUNDS AND BLOOD ARE SHINING
  • hands/feet can be darker then other parts of the body



mini concept No. 3:

Uses his own blood like ink, for marking the path. Old sword as a "brush".
Wounded right arm for ink.
Blood in the point of the sword (diping in the bucket).
Battle-weary armor, ripped clothes (exile).

NOTES FOR ME:

  • now he has a body like a human. Maybe a tail, weird ears or different anatomy could be works better for a "lightspawn"
  • the armor parts needs to be majestic (he was a lightspawn captain)
  • a broken halo could be looks cool.
  • clothes can be rotten/moldy, armor can be broken/rusty
  • armor parts needs to be metallic (lightspawn in black armor!?)
  • helmet?

mini concept No. 4:

ARMOR STYLE:
1. Simple
without horns, makes him less demonic (that's good)
2. Light Lord
not bad, but Sauron.
3. Natural
This shapes looks fine, living wood armor is kinda uninque. maybe this shiny elf works well.
4. Root
The idea is ok, but shapes are ugly af.
5. Blocks
A better style for the first concept (1. Simple).
6. Broken
He is an exile lightspawn. Floating broken parts works well.

SWORDS:
Bandage (4) and dead roots (3) could be works well on a sword with shape of 3 or 5.

NOTES FOR ME:

  • armor: Broken+Blocks
  • character: following Natural, and roots surrounding the armor.
  • sword: use a variaton of the 5th, but apply roots on it.
  • small braches can came out from veins, shiny but loosing light to the end of it.
  • dark moss and mushrooms can makes him infected by darkness.

Composition Page:

Everything what need to be visible and understandable on the composition:

  • HE IS THE LIGHT! The main source of light and color is Partem.
  • HE IS MAJESTIC AF! He is.
  • HE IS A ONE-MAN ARMY! Corpses everywhere, "infected" by light.
  • He is on a really horroristic place. Everywhere are fog, blight, zombies, demons, and weird runes... Dark creaures fears him!

Problems:

  • The bucket of light blood is not really visible.
  • Time.

I like the way you plan everything ahead.
(Gotta learn this myslef :V)
Nice and clean sketches also.
(thing to learn no2)

I like the pose, it's like the sword is either purifying or giving life as the character move it

I caught some FUCKIN fue.
Participant Withdrawn.
I will finish this later, as a simple picture...

1 month later

NEVER SURREND!


NEXT STEP ON THE FINAL ART!
Focusing on Partem.
I started rendering the basic details of his colors, materials and trying to find the right balance of agressive contrast between light and darker parts.


NOTES FOR MY SELF:

  • Black, orange and yellow are the main colors.
  • Need some rainbowish effects on "blue moss".
  • Particles around him.
  • Rise the shine trough the holes of his ribcage.
  • COMPETITION IS OVER. NOW I HAVE A SH!T LOADS OF TIME!
