  • 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

No twitter.
Only personal fb.

I will be representing...the dark side. dun dun dun.

At the depths of nearly unreachable planes shrouded in darkness, the originators slept. Now awakened to turn the tides in the war against light and dark. Spewing darkness, they mold souls acquired in their innumerable lifespan into unfathomable creatures.

Oh cool nice to see you there !
Can't wait to look at your first sketches ^^

Nice to see you again.

@mr_dessin ^_^ I look forward to stalking your progress as well. I will be silently creeping on everyone's threads like always.

@malcom Indeed! This year has been busy. :l Idk if I'll finish but at least want to try and participate haha.

@furichella muahahaha!! :smiling_imp:

Okie, first little smidge of concept.

Don't mind you stalk me (I mean my art haha) as always :smile:
Your character is super creepy nice you'll give my nightmares for weeks haha

And I really can't say why (maybe because it's full of mystery ?) but the first head on the second line look uber fun !

@mr_dessin
xDD
I kind of want to create some nightmare fuel lol. I'm leaning towards that one or the middle one on the second row as of right now.

Looks awesome. I love the purple-black gradients going on. Super spooky!

I like this so far as well. If I had to recommend something, it would be to try adding more of the cloth wraps that you had in the earlier sketches. If you add some markings on the cloth wraps, it could give the character a sense of wonder. Like maybe, the wraps suppress her full powers or something. Just a suggestion. Keep up the good work.

@sanguine thank you! Definitely trying to give it that spooky wonder.

@malcom I will definitely be adding more cloth wraps, I got fixated on fleshing out some of the other details lol. I also really like your suggestion and will play around with it. I feel like it'd work well with the concept I had overall, thanks!

Very creepy design so far! The head feels a bit small - unless that was your intention? - and the body and limbs could use some more muscle definition, but it's early and I'm sure you'll get to that. Good start on the flowing cloth and smoke. Good luck with it all!

Creepiness with a slight touch of elegance - I like that combination :).
Keep it up!

Regards
Jonatan

That is getting really interesting @s-stark !
Can't wait to see the full artwork nightmare power 10 :smile:

Oh and I don't know why...but I see him/her wearing a hat (or something flowing ?) above his/her head ...Maybe link to the red crystal (?) on the forehead.

@mdashow Thanks! The head is intentionally as is but I will be working on a bit more definition all around. :smile:

@jonathan-barker Yes muahahaha! Creatures to haunt dreams. >:]

@jonatan-moonchild Thank you! I had planned for something a bit different initially but I'm happy it's coming off as creepy with a smidge of elegance.

@mr_dessin Hoping to produce more nightmare fuel soon; tomorrow's my first day off in like 7 days and I've been feelin it. D: Also I might play around with adding something more flowing on top, just not sure what I want to go for yet lol.

Same kinda idea but changed some things around/fleshed it out a bit more. Will probably just proceed with this. :smile:

Also figured it'd be a good idea to give context, this was my idea initially:
At the depths of nearly unreachable planes shrouded in darkness, the originators slept. Now awakened to turn the tides in the war against light and dark. Spewing darkness, they mold souls acquired in their innumerable lifespan into unfathomable creatures.
