Temporal Master - Splinterlands Art Contest week 186

deadsparrow in #hive-13323 • 3 years ago

Hello, Folks!

I wanted to contribute something a little different from my usual posts. I don't usually paint anything Hive related, at least, not since I started on here when we were doing DTIYS challenges and stuff.

I decided to participate in the #Splinterlands weekly contest to challenge myself, since I've been having a little bit of an art block. Getting into this was more than the challenge that I expected. But I had to take it on the chin and keep going.

For transparency, I've never played #splinterlands, even though I'm a big table-top fan (not typical for a black South African guy), being an MTG fan. But there's always room to include more gaming in one's life.

Anyway..

Temporal Master

Process

I struggled painting this, I think most because I had been sculpting and modelling more than drawing and only got back to my bullsh*t the previous week before. This is one of the sketches I was working on until I just didn't like working on it and didn't believe in the sketch.

I feel like there wasn't any energy behind it and was too generic in the pose.

Re-Working

Sketches

Since that sketch wasn't working for me, so I went on to do a different one inspired a lot by Doctor Strange. The main idea was to stay true to Temporal Master's look in spirit but plug in a cinematic post look with a focus on character.

The Painting

I went on to scan and lay out the values beneath the sketches, blocking them out. I applied a gradient map to bring in some underlying tones to guide the the base colours on top.

Final

I meant to include how I made the Aldrich Magic circle light effects but my That's will have to wait until I can afford a proper PC with the capacity to do video capture in Photoshop without lagging or crashing Photoshop.

This was a hard painting for but it helped me dust of the cobwebs and flex some painting muscle. I hope this means I'll be painting more regularly.

Thank you for taking that little time to let me share with you.

Nice work bro! You can buy some nice gold cards or a few maxed level cards with the hive you've earned from this.

That's an awesome rendition of the character. I like your portrayal better than the actual game art.

Thank you, @eustace-kidd! I tried painting Temporal Master 3 time before figuring out that a Dr. Strange vibe was the way to go.

HAHA, that's freakin awesome. Let's keep up the good work.
BTW that's four kind of colors you made symbolize " MULTI-VERSE" to me.

Lol! I only just realised that I used the same colours as the Infinity Stone (missing 2 of them). The weird thing is I actually wanted to do green but wasn't feeling it and the red was doing to be a orange. I should have just done them too, so I could incidentally have a full set.

Very cool artwork @deadsparrow
Love it 😎
Glad it got you out of the art block in some way… I’m stuck for a while in it too… but to much happening around me so I can’t get in the right mindset to start again.

I'm glad you like it. You'll be out of art purgatory soon. I was distracted by a lot too. But I had to brute force my way out.

You’re welcome.
That would be nice… hope it will happen soon 😁
