Hello Steemers.

I was informed that I should post some of my art on here and rather than just giving final pieces to look at I figured I would show a bit of the progress/steps that goes into making one of my creatures.

Lets make a creature

First I start out with a sketch (using my cintiq). I saw an angry mushroom looking thing in my travels and decided I wanted a little creature that would live on the forest floor.

Color Blocking

Then I block in the sections using high contrast colors so I can keep everything visible and still match the lines.

Setting up base colors

Once I have everything blocked out that I want I color in an environment background with very basic lighting and set the actual colors.

Lighting and Texture

Now I start to add texture and more lighting on both the creature and the background.

Final rendering work

Finish it off with extra fine details and more lighting work, tweak some small things and I am done.

Thanks for taking a look.
