Jacks Blood Cocktail - jackjones - 04-07-2016

Hey Guys I'm excited to join this challenge big fan of Bloodborne so this shuld be fun!
For my challenge I have chosen Henry the Raven!
Just working out some initial sketches done last night to get myself into the zone for this challenge!


Just some scribbles to figure out what direction I want to take this need to do more research though



Trying to find a mood that I like  also trying to play a little with subtle storytelling again i will be developing the character more as its pretty generic atm

Hey guys thanks for the warm welcome to the challenge been really busy with college this week so did not get much done just back from it today and did this quick thing to Figure out the mood I wanted for the illustration will do a finished character design in line for tomorrow!!

These are some great sketches! That yellow and purple comp has a really creepy feel to it. Looking forward to seeing more.


RE: Jacks Blood Cocktail - slash razor - 04-09-2016

great atmosphere in your comps, very moody, will definitely be watching where you take these... great job.


RE: Jacks Blood Cocktail - jackjones - 04-10-2016

Thanks Legion and Slash I'm glad you guys like them!! 
Decided I wanted to flesh out henry's desing a bit more so did up a quick character concept for him 

"The Mixture of Experimental Blood Vials has taken away Henry's vision and he now hunts based on sound and echolocation."

I want this to play a part in his story which I will divulge later :P

RE: Jacks Blood Cocktail - Adam Lina - 04-10-2016

I love the design so far. Your values look really good too.


RE: Jacks Blood Cocktail - jackjones - 04-11-2016

Cheers Nada yeah I really like the idea of him being blinded and thats the reason people start going missing :D

Cheers Adam appreciate it mang!

Just scribbled out another mood piece tonight 





RE: Jacks Blood Cocktail - Arapersonica - 04-11-2016

Ooo, I love your latest update, the whole mood of it. It's like my favorite time of evening, when everything is just blue and somber~


RE: Jacks Blood Cocktail - Hobitt - 04-11-2016

Very good mood piece i like it!


RE: Jacks Blood Cocktail - jackjones - 04-23-2016

The final piece not too happy with it I felt tlike it seemed a little rushed but the main points i want to fix looking at it now is:
-More clarity and better compostition need to do more comp studies
-story telling is not where I wanted it need to study more storytelling stuff like movie comps.
-Needs a bit more colour balance as it's too blue right now :/

I like the mood and the face! Though it doesn't feel very Bloodborne. You did a great job sketching, too!

This turned out really nice, has the mood and other things going for it. I have to say I liked your earlier mood and concept pieces a bit more though. Either way, well done, looking forward to seeing more of your work.
