Andromeda. The very first Original Alien Character I have made.
Helllooooo everyone! It is me again Steven.
Recently, I have been abducted by an Alien Mothership!
Yes! the Alien Art Hive Alien Incubation
If you my friend still don't know about the alien community why not SMASH! this Alien Art Hive and subscribed to see cool Artworks in the future! Not just aliens but all sort of art related contents.
And hey! As I was wandering through the incubation I saw lot's of beautiful artworks inspired me to do some Alien artwork too!
Until I stumbled unto this post Alien Art Hive Graphics Contest that was made few days ago by juliakponsford.
And coool! I got to draw alien with my own style now. Hype is on me!
Join me walk through the process of creation and hope you have fun as the art progress from the start to finish.

The very first step you should do is get a coffee my friend. That's right boil that water pour that to your mug, add the coffee and take a sip.
STEP 1
Sketching
Let's make the background gray and sketch our Alien Character.
Mother of galaxy! She's freaking huge to fit in the galaxy, universe and space hahaha. We're just having fun with the sketch guys. I often do this grayscale of the character and input the colors on top in the next process.
STEP 2
Coloring Stage
The coloring phase, I don't really have the idea of what the colors should I put so I look for images of the space/universe in google. I saw blues, red, white, actually damn universe have lot's of colors. Let's dive in and put all of it!
I could add some more overlay layer to pop those colors. Like this one here.
After that I think I love the colors already. It turns now to refining the artwork. We just figuring out the character as we go clean and refine it.
Before refining I adjust the image a little bit using liquify tool in Photoshop. You might not see the changes it is somewhere the face area down to neck and breast part. That makes the neck part not so stiff.
STEP 3
Final Touch and Render
In this stage it is where we define the forms of the character. I also find having these black outlines looks cool. It's a matter of finding it by accident so I retain some of those outlines.
I'm not really an art expert to really know the exact thing to do. In refining I just put what's cool and what works for the character.
If you want to know about these cool Text Formatting please visit Cartel Post Framework I know you would love this guide as much as I do.
