Thanks, Artloader! I'm having way too much fun designing these themes and characters.
Little update today. I'm configuring the narrative and placement of elements.
I think I'll be able to make this piece ooze Halloween and still have it feel fresh to me.
Here's my ref board for composition, mood, light, and style:
I like putting amazing art in my ref boards, because then I feel like I can more unashamedly stand on the shoulders of the artistic giants that inspire me to grow.
On a related note, I've recently had a small flood of commissions come down the pipeline-- super blessed, but also busy. Gonna have to really prioritize in order to make the deadline with the level of finish I'm aiming for.
10 hours minimum on the final is my plan at this point, started on Sunday after I do a few color/light studies.
The plan:
Strong, yet loose enough drawing of final comp - Convert the lines to a warm hue
Color pick from my studies and lay in a rough light/value scheme
Paint the nights away listening to podcasts and Jrock until done.
