“From the shadows the status quo is upended…In the flickering light of the torch-blade corruption is laid bare and severed. Yet how can one remain untouched from the filth they pursue? How can one avoid the singe of a fire fed with vanity?”
Another character finished! I plan on doing one more to finish up this series (for now). I hope you all have been enjoying it!
I used Blender for the initial sculpt and lighting, just like the others in this series, and then Artrage and Krita for a paintover, background, and post processing. You can find the other characters in this series in my portfolio!
Sure! The bulk of it is done on a single layer so I can get some nice blending in Artrage. I just color pick from the render and paint over it on a separate layer so I can always revert back to the render if needed. In tiny spots the render even shows through and your eye can’t tell the difference without zooming in.
This is a couple layers but I use a “pencil” to darken some edges and make it look more illustrated, and then I use an overlay brush to paint in some details/runes
