Art Process

My idea for this card- Revealer sits on a red sofa with three skulls, on the chest, and hips. His left hand is resting on the sofa arm, while his right left is on the other sofa arm. In the background, I was planning to add three candles with antique, European-designed candle holders. I want the vibe to be dark, sort of mysterious. Obviously, I changed some of the clothing and accessories. For the lineart, I made the hair more detailed showing the strands. The hardest part, which took time for me was the fingers.

The card is purple overloaded, so I have to choose some shades of purple to separate the elements. I want the clothing and the hair to have different shades. For the pants, I just go with the classic black. I found a nice skull and bone brush on the asset store and adjusted some of the features to match the art. On clipped layers, I worked on the shadows. I threw some reds, oranges, and blues.

I put more dark shades especially on the corners example, on the hair near the shoulders, inner clothing folds, etc. I was assuming the light source would be in the upper left corner since it is where I will be putting my three candles. I manually drew the candle holders using the symmetrical ruler, copy and paste, and tadaa instant two extra candle holders. The candles were also drawn, with different lengths. I gave a purple-pink glowing eye to the skull on the chest.

Final Art

I found an image background from the asset store that perfectly fit the art, I remembered Mr. Bean's patterned brown wallpaper on his apartment, haha. I colored the candle holders gold to look opulent and gave a glow to the candles. Since it is glowing, I added some glow on the hair, clothing, and sofa. I intensified the darkness in the lower right corner by adding overlayed dark purple and red. Lastly, added noise specks.

Thanks for reading~ 💖
