Good Days,
This is my entry for Week 153 of Splinterlands Art Contest.
Decided to make artwork for the Dragon Splinter's Selenia Sky.
~~ SELENIA SKY LANDS ~~
Tools used: photoshop, wacom one.
- PROCESS
Referenced a snipped picture of Selenia Sky.
Started with blocking color and hoping for accidents. What type of environment that would fit Selenia.
Blocking out Selenia's Dragon. I had lots of different sketches and blocks on the dragon and took most of my time. This is one out of 6.
I was choosing between, is Selenia on a beach or in a forest with her dragon. Started sketch grass.
Decided that this was the best dragon sketch I could make out of the environment.
Added Selenia. Started with a grayscale, then painted.
Adjusted colors and lighting.
Sea background was not working. So I settled for mountains. Also Added Sky.
- FINAL
I hope you guys liked it.
This artwork took some time because nailing
the dragon details would take so long, so I decided to silhouette the farther parts from
camera and just did the face.
Suggestions and advice are greatly appreciated. Please comment below it would help me a lot.
Thank you.

Incredibly cool style!
Thank you.
That's some incredible art right there. Congrats mate and keep the great work!
I love it!
your shading and character design reminds of Disney Pixar animations.
the flow of the sky gives it super cool depth, and the viewers kinda feel like a little creature staring up at these legendary characters.
I would like a lesson on how you did the grass.
I think you could have put a little more detail into the dragons mohawk, Im sure some of it got faded from the mist and clouds.
Believe me, I know exactly how tiring it gets having to repetedly add detail to little spots while trying to finish something that takes so much time and effort.
Keep up the good work. I would love to see some more work.
This would look great as a wallpaper too lol I love it, great work!
Really?? Thank you.
This turned out absolutly AMAZING! Great job!
Thank you so much. There were so many trial and errors on this artwork but I'm glad you like the decision I went with.
