Hello Alien art and Splinterlands community, today with a new entry, I decided to create this magazine-style design, with various textures for the cover. This week, I've been practicing with snake designs and searching for a card to work on, and I came across this one that I found attractive. In the design, I included several techniques that I've been refining, particularly with different lighting effects, which has helped me improve even further. I used various fonts and gave the title a cutout letter effect. Let's move on to the design development.
隆Hola comunidad de Alien art y Splinterlands! Hoy, con una nueva participaci贸n, decid铆 crear este dise帽o de estilo revista, con varias texturas para la portada. Esta semana estuve practicando con dise帽os de serpientes y buscando una carta para trabajar en ella, y encontr茅 esta que me pareci贸 atractiva. En el dise帽o, inclu铆 varias t茅cnicas que he estado perfeccionando, especialmente con diferentes efectos de iluminaci贸n, lo que me ha ayudado a mejorar a煤n m谩s. Utilic茅 diferentes fuentes y le di al t铆tulo un efecto de letras recortadas. Pasemos al desarrollo del dise帽o.
DESIGN
I started with this image of a cobra and proceeded to cut it out to place the figure inside, but before that, I decided to work on the fangs, which needed to be enlarged to match the illustration. I copied a fang and stretched it to enlarge it, then made a duplicate, positioning both above and using the eraser tool to blend them together.
Comenc茅 con esta imagen de una cobra y proced铆 a recortarla para colocar la figura dentro, pero antes de eso, decid铆 trabajar en los colmillos, que necesitaban agrandarse para que coincidieran con la ilustraci贸n. Copi茅 un colmillo y lo estir茅 para agrandarlo, luego hice una copia y los posicion茅 ambos encima, utilizando la herramienta de borrador para fusionarlos.
I noticed the card and the pointed ears of the woman inside the snake, which led me to the idea of an elf, so once generated, I proceeded to place her on top of the snake and erase part of her in the layer mask, adjusting the shadows as I erased.
Observ茅 la carta y las orejas puntiagudas de la mujer dentro de la serpiente, lo que me llev贸 a la idea de un elfo, as铆 que una vez generada, proced铆 a colocarla encima de la serpiente y borrar parte de ella en la m谩scara de capa, ajustando las sombras a medida que borraba.
I used an exposure mask and began to shape lights and shadows in detail, trying to make the ear more visible to highlight more features of the card. Moving on to give red highlights to the eyes, I used a solid red color and inverted the layer mask to paint the snake's eye and give it a glowing effect.
Utilic茅 una m谩scara de exposici贸n y comenc茅 a dar forma a las luces y sombras detalladamente, tratando de hacer m谩s visible la oreja para resaltar m谩s caracter铆sticas de la carta. Pasando a darle luces rojas a los ojos, utilic茅 un color rojo s贸lido e invert铆 la m谩scara de capa para pintar el ojo de la serpiente y darle un efecto de resplandor.
I also painted her eyes red and her earring, and used the lasso tool to create a highlight with the brightness layer, adjusting it to give a lighting effect to those parts.
Tambi茅n pint茅 sus ojos de color rojo y su pendiente, y utilic茅 la herramienta lazo para crear un resplandor con la capa de brillo, ajust谩ndolo para dar un efecto de iluminaci贸n a esas partes.
To add details, I accompanied her name with a title effect and then placed her lore on the side as filler. I also added a certain amount of noise to give it a textured and worn-out look, and to finish it off, I applied a plastic texture to highlight certain points and make it visually appealing. That concludes my explanation, and I hope you enjoyed this new submission. See you next time.
Para a帽adir detalles, acompa帽茅 su nombre con un efecto de t铆tulo y luego coloqu茅 su historia al lado como relleno. Tambi茅n a帽ad铆 un cierto ruido para darle una textura desgastada, y para terminar, le apliqu茅 una textura de pl谩stico para resaltar ciertos puntos y hacerlo visualmente atractivo. Eso concluye mi explicaci贸n, espero que hayas disfrutado esta nueva entrega. 隆Nos vemos la pr贸xima vez!
