Land of Wonder - THU 2018 Challenge
My first ever Artstation Challenge. A very pleasant experience that allowed me to freely express something that came from an artistic soul that we all have :) (And yes it was a THU challenge, so a lot of subtle metaphors for that)
Proud to be a part of a community that selflessly helps and inspires more and more people to follow their dreams.
Show some love :)

Melita - Land of Wonder
Quick brainstorm. I prefer to do it in my notebook, but I was excited to share it with people so for a change went photoshop all over it. (Tried to include stuff that is more relevant)
A Mood board created after some media consumption on Malta (Can't wait to visit it one day)
Architecture Studies (The big shapes and structures)
Architecture Studies (Some of the more subtle details)
3D Blockout and references for composition and color
Final Lineart. Taking my time and investing time to every character and building. I knew I was going to paint over it, but a clean lineart to me really helps solidify the world.
Steadily progressing from local color to the whole thing coming together. (I love to meditate by establishing the sky. There is something about painting clouds that makes the whole experience more dream than work) Thank you for watching :)
