The Stovepipe Hero Hi-Res Wallpaper and Animatic!
🕑 Added 2019-03-27 12:00:02 +0000 UTCHere is the wallpaper for our Monster of the Month for March! Woooo I loved working on this one! At first I was worried it would be static and lifeless (it is just a lump of metal after all). But in the end I found that there was a lot of movement to play with in elements like the springs and tea set and I feel like those things helped keep the whole thing feeling alive as I worked through the colors. You can see the development in the animatic below:
The only other thing that gave me some trouble was finding a way to keep the overall figure bright when the surface of the figure was meant to be cast iron black. The solution? Like so many other artistic problems: Just lie. In this case I just replaced black with either blue or red. It wasn't technically true to the color in my reference, but it kept the figure lively and more pleasing to look at overall. Anyway, I had a lot of fun with this one.
Brush sets coming Friday!
