The last 5 days were put on hold to prioritize a charity piece for short notice. While I won’t be able to disclose the specific children’s charity that it’s for, I’ll at least be able post the picture and give a description once the intended recipient has it given to him. The Mysta Remake/Remodel got backburnered so that I could get that priority done, but I’ll probably finish it up later this week, and post it here with progression details.

Moving along…

I dove back into dailies yesterday. No progression with this one, I’ve got a different lengthy post I’m working on for later today. Without further ado, here’s yesterday’s daily:

Just under 3hrs. Initial background and creature painted loosely in ArtRage, without any base linework used. Then ‘ported it to Photoshop, working around a dozen or so layers of varied filter, opacity, and selective erasing on the creature. Brought in foreground and background cloudiness. Rendered in the wreckage in the background with a couple of my custom brushes. Gave the eyes a touch of bioluminescence. Signed the bugger and called it done.
