Good day everyone, I wanna share to you my entry for Splinterlands Art Contest Week 300(https://peakd.com/hive-13323/@splinterlands/splinterlands-art-contest-week-300). I think this is the first time I'm joining this contest. I decided to redraw a charactyer in my own style. This is the finished artwork:
I saw my friend's entry for this week and I asked him what he could suggest, and he suggested that I draw Fabino. I thought of making him into a mech but I went for the samurai style instead.
This is the basic sketch I did for the pose, holding a cig on his right hand but on his left hand I transformed what he was originally holding into a custom katana:
I added more parts to the sketch, like clothes, mask, headgear, armors, and the cig smoke:
I felt that the basic sketch was already okay, so I lightened up the sketch and proceeded with making the line art, starting with the head:
The sketch I did was very rough so I was adding and correcting details while making the line art:
I also had to move the sketch a bit to fix the pose, as seen here:
I was satisfied with the basic line work so I filled it up with a solid color:
I then added more colors to the drawing, just flat and basic colors first:
Made some color corrections on this stage and added a lot more to the line art, as well as some background:
Added a few more details and colors into the artwork for this stage. Added shading onto the drawing too. And a few more color corrections:
The last stage was just adding a few more details, some effects and streaks, some more overall color correction, gradients for overlays, chromatic aberrations, and blurred effects. Duplicated the line art as well to show off more of the small details I made:
Hope you guys liked my artwork for today! I will try to join weekly to improve my art.
angas dude!
THanks!
