Dream: Inktober Day 1 Prompt

What good guys! Yesterday after Powering Up my hive for the #HPUD, I proceeded to search for the #inktober2023 prompts and started sketching, I was really hopeful that I could post this yesterday but I was so tired and I just chose to rest halfway through the art process and continued sketching as soon as I woke up later in the night, and so here is my entry. 👇

Inktober Day 1 Prompt: Dream

When I saw the first prompt was Dream I got hyped and thought to myself this can be a challenge for me to complete all 31 prompts, and that, would be freakin awesome! Anyway, I'm just gonna share my art process for my work.

I'm using Medibang Paint for my digital work, and this is on a 1080x1080 Pixel frame, For the first layer I drew my perspective lines and added another layer for the radial perspective and started to sketch out my Astronaut.

After finishing my model, I resize cut it out piece by piece and stretch it out from head to its lower extremities, making the model more defined and detailed. My concept is all about our state of consciousness when we're in the dream world, we are like astronauts.

Here's the transformation of my sketch to the final model


Background

I started to fill in the background, the concept would be my model seemed to be lost, wondering a the middle of nowhere, at the same time, aware that it's all in a dream state, which somehow is how dream works right? like you suddenly pop out of reality, and all of a sudden you're in the middle of darkness empty world, and as you collate yourself...

BOOM!

Patterns and shapes start to make out of nothingness, it's almost a psychedelic adventure, everything is hazy, and it feels like you're familiar with this place and you belong to this place, not until you wake up that is.

By the way, I used a Watercolor brush tool in making the background and also used a smudged tool (Soft) to create the hazy sky.

I used the edge pen tool, in this process, to make the corner like seawater, to make it like a 3rd-person perspective of the dreamer, where he sees himself while simultaneously playing the role as a first-person. (Did it make sense?) 🤣 I think that's how dreams are for me.

Almost finished

Then using the Stripple pen tool I mix and match the different colors that make it seem like creative juices is coming out of the mind of the Astronaut that makes out every bit of blocks of the #dream

and for the finishing touches, I changed the layer the Psychedelic sky layer's blending from normal to divide, and it changed the color to dark blue, and that's all of it I guess. I hope you like it! Cheers! 😅

Oh, by the way, I went back to the inktober site and it says to use a pencil or pen, and never mention digital artwork, so I'm like, "Oh fudge! 🤦🏽". and so I did a quick creation using my physical drawing pad and a ballpen. and this is what I did.

Thank you ruffatot! 🙏🤗 Congrats on you 2k HP milestone btw!

Ehehehe, salamatsuuu din ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ

ohhh this is so cool OwO that expressionism and abstract vibe is just so cool and so you 🥹💕

Thanks! Haha why does it make it so me? Is it because I'm billions of info in my head and explodes at one point? Or is it the term 'psychedelic' hahaha

i say both. you got weird facts in you but probs psychedelic 🤣🤣 that's the term i was looking fooorrrrrr i forget terms now

🤣🤣🤣 I'm kinda limited with medibang's brushtool I can't manipulate the color combi to make more psychedelic-ish, I have to do it totally manual, I was able to make a time-lapse of this tho haha

ever tried changing opacity and color load cuz when I'm blending, i put the color load at 5% then about 30-20% opacity to get weird color combi for my neon shit. i suggest sai tho, cuz the blending brushes in that software is top notch

Well yea I can do that too, but think medibang itself is more focused on anime-ish art creation, but yea its K, I can manage. doing the spider prompt now haha

true. it's so hard to do more toned and darker themed stuff there 😢 good luck with day 2 prompt!

Amazing work. Both digital and physical drawings are really good.
