Hello holos, I hope you all are doing great. I'm so happy that we got to see a new holomon this month. He is cute, isn't he? I can't wait to make an artwork based on him soon. Also the creators have already told us in the discord chats that they are also working on the Poison bug Holomon and are now polishing it before release. I'm excited to see it because this is the first poison type from the game. I think the colour scheme of this creature might be purple. I'm sure you guys guessed that too haha. Now the only question is how will it's anatomy look like? Will it resemble a bug's anatomy and if so what kind of bug? Lots of bugs out there so it will be tough to predict haha. I guess I'll just focus on making art untill I see the guy.
Anyway guys, this will be the final art blog from me until my exams (happening in 7 days) are over for real this time. I made this in advance but didn't get to finish but today was a rest day so I painted her and decided to post it here. I'm at peace now. I don't have any pending artworks now haha. I hope you like my artwork :)
A firey forest healer!
The Process
- Made a rough sketch using this reference from Pinterest
- Made a clean lineart using penfade brush.
- Painted the base colours
- Started working on her coat first. Decided to keep it green since it's the main colour of the forest healer. After that I started shading her skin according to the source of light.
- Painted her eyes next by adding green highlights and shadows.
- Added highlights on her skin and started blending it. Also started working on her black top.
- Started working on her hair at this point.
- Added highlights and shadows on it.
- The main light source is from the left side so I added strong green highlights on her hair and I made the other side a bit more darker. Then I adjusted the colours using tone curve to get a desired contrast. The hair accessory was rendered fully at this point excluding the leaves.
- Now to make it more interesting I added red rim lights on the darker side of the character.
Result
- Finished the painting with a simple furey background. I did that because the complementary effect of red and green. Initially the firey particles were green but it didn't suit the background so I changed it to red. After that I refined the painting and I was done painting it. I hope you guys enjoyed the process shots.
