The Serpent
Hi guys, I wanted to share a recent illustration and concept art with you. This is the Serpent! The final boss for a game project. This fallen spirit creature likes to consume souls, and when he does he will grow a new tail based on the soul he has consumed, leaving him eternal bound to some pretty evil ladies. I hope you enjoy the illustration as well as the concept art.
Elementals – Pathfinder
Since last summer I have the pleasure to work with Paizo on Pathfinder parallel to my master studies. As bigger projects go time passes between the creation of artworks and the actual release. So now I can share some of my first Illustrations with you. :) I worked on a set of four elementals and a golden wolverine for Paizo´s upcoming Summon Monster Pawn Collection. I´ve included my original sketches as well as some work in progress. After the first sketch iteration we decided to change the elementals proportions to make them bigger and more massive.
Morning Stroll
Finally I got to finish one of my own Illustrations again and it has been quite some time since I last worked on an Asian dragon. So here we go. :) This one was a lot of fun to work on. I challenged myself to work with saturation to create contrast instead of color contrast. So the entire picture is done in tones from yellow to red and the shadow areas are simply lower in saturation. At the beginning I had a different design for the horns but found them rather boring and decided to go with ram horns instead….
Steed
A more realistic approach to a fantasy creature.
Griffin Illustration
Today I want to share my newest illustration Griffin Mom with you. Remember if you ever find a huge nest with big blue eggs, don´t just walk up on it. Momy might be just around the corner. ;) Hope you like it!
Time to Head South
Time to Head South – Creature Concept
Creeping Fog
So here is the finished artwork, hope you like it! :) I have decided to go without the two horsemen because I wanted the artwork to be emptier and put focused on the complete silence of the moment when this creeping creature actually takes shape out of the dense fog just to vanish into it moments later without making any sound.
Equal Power
This one was based on a free super fast skribble I did a view days back. I named it Equal Power – hope you like it. ;)
Present for the Birds – Illustration
So this is my new Illustration. I leave it to your imagination why this grey old beast and the little song birds are meeting at the moss covered trees. I just noticed that I haven´t worked on a dragon for a while and decided to finish up this one. :)
