Splinterlands art contest | Queen of Crows
Good evening, during the night I wanted to start with my entry of this week for @Splinterlands, it was a hard work to recreate for the second time this card Queen of Crows fascinates me, because of the colors, the aesthetics, absolutely everything is amazing in this card and when I like something so much I like to honor it in the best way, I decided to make an almost full body drawing, simulating a Queen of Crows that flies through the skies in company of her crows in movement, this time I wanted to change the clothes, placing a short skirt and a top, I kept the gloves and the necklace, but I wanted to avoid other details that the card has since I felt that it was not going to be well, at the end the result I liked very much, it was very flirtatious.
I hope you like it.
I made my sketch, this was something that was a little complicated because of the pose, I felt that the waist looked strange as crooked, but it was the best I could get hahaha, I started to paint this time I chose different shades of purple mostly desaturated and so I started to paint the skin, creating lights and shadows, then in a new layer I added more colors to finally mix them and leave a skin a little softer but with texture in certain areas that sometimes give that touch of realism.
After I had the skin ready I started to give details to the eyes I did a kind of black makeup around the eyes, I wanted a dark but beautiful look and of course her purple eyes. Then I painted the hat and the hair using two totally different shades of purple.
I didn't want to give so many details to the hair, because I felt that it looked good like this, simple, without so many strands, I applied base colors on the gloves and the top, then I started to detail the hat painting with shadows and lights to create the folds, I painted the gold detail on the hat and I also started to give volume to the gloves and to put the base color on the skirt, little by little I started giving shape to each garment and after having everything ready I started with the details, this time I started with the necklace that by the way I almost forgot to paint it, luckily I activated again the sketch layer and remembered that I had drawn it haha, for the background I started placing a dark purple base color and then I added a lilac light behind it.
I painted some clouds and then the silhouette of the crows flying around, I used a motion blur on each silhouette to give that effect that they are flying at high speed, I added a new layer of highlights and started to highlight the eyes, some highlights on the nose and mouth, finally I edited the image fixing a bit the color settings to my liking.
