  • 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

After alot of mulling it over I'm having to settle with team Sci-fi on this one :stuck_out_tongue:


[feel free to skip the next bit as it is a little waffley}


I figured that for the sake of this battle between the forces of fantasy and the forces of sci-fi, all the humans would reside on the sci-fi side (essentially an augmented reality) whilst all the magical and mythological would reside within the fantasy side.
For these two forces to actually fight each other they would have to exist within the same universe so each side is not necessarily restricted to their own technologies.
I've always seen the real human strength as being the adaptability to survive, in this case with the advances in science and technology:
Gaia is the god of creation; G.A.I.A is advanced technology that harnesses and manipulates it's power. So whilst the fantasy armies amass and pray to their god for her blessing, team sci-fi barges in and greedily takes it all.
For the battle G.A.I.A's power is insurmountable making her and her pilot the ultimate grand supreme hero of the ART WAR.
I cannot however envisage tea sci-fi lasting for too long on it's own as power struggles will bring about self consuming wars that end all humanity.

(also hopefully I'll come up with a suitable acronym for G.A.I.A as at the moment the full stops are really just to make the name look more sci-fi)


Design wise, I want to mix in visual aspects from a large variety of religions, the bursting organic qualities of nature but most importantly the sci-fi elements; the attempts to restrict and control the force of nature.


Anyway, here are some thumbnails and sketches :smile:

There are 103 replies with an estimated read time of 12 minutes.

aaaand some more refined lineart :smiley:
I'm not really sure how I want the pilot to be seated in this thing, the obvious idea was right in the middle however at present the little face poking out of the chest does look a little comedic...

A loosely shaded lineart so I can see what shapes are working etc...


I think I'll leave the big mech thingy alone for a while now and focus on the pilot who I guess counts as the real hero in this case :stuck_out_tongue:

really cool design!! The pilot placement does look a bit comedic. Just a suggestion but I think it can be cool if the pilot can be floating in weightlessness in the sphere on her head. Temporarily transferring the concionsness to G.A.I.A.
Also, the acronym could be something like Great (or Galactic) Astral Indestructible (or Immutable) Ally. Just my 2 cents. Hope it helps
Keep up the good work :smile:

I agree with @tiearius . But I believe she may be all inside the torso of this giant creature. And let that part become transparent so you can see her floating in a cosmic vessel.

Love this design, really creative idea. I'd agree with what a couple of others have said though; some sort of translucent shielding over the pilot's head, and maybe showing a bit more of the pilot would look less comic? Either that or drop the cockpit down into the abdomen, not sure. Amazing work though, can't wait to see it progress :smile:

Amazing work ! I love the design :smiley:

Thanks! I'll definitely try the pilot in the sphere :smile: As for the acronym, I think you've basically nailed it! love the idea of having the last A as 'Ally' Really appreciate your help :smiley:

Yeh I think I'll probably go for that since I wanted to keep the sphere largely untouched (certainly by the humans) because it seems to be the main source of power.

yeh as difficult as I will ultimately find the translucency I think it's definitely the way to go :smile:

12 days later

I still really like the lineart above but it wasn't transferring to tone well at all because of the shapes in it that weren't so obvious as just lineart.


As such I have essentially been redesigning alot of it so I'm much happier with the whole shape language.

Very cool design. I was gonna call my sci-fi entry Gaia lol
