"From Ruins" Final Hi-Res Color
🕑 Added 2020-04-23 23:13:56 +0000 UTCHere is the latest Plague of Dragons image, From Ruins. We painted this image almost entirely on stream live on Twitch this month. (It was about 20 hours of painting, 15 of which was painted live!) If you'd like to see any of the video process you can check out some of the VODs here: https://www.twitch.tv/justingerardillustration/videos?filter=archives&sort=time
As with the Flight of Dragons image, I have included a Process Guide for this image to show how it developed in stages:
I hope you enjoy it! It was a wonderful experience for me and I hope to do more of the pastoral, peaceful imagery throughout this year to balance out some of the chaos right now.
Next month: For our next month's image we will be painting another image from our Plague of Dragons series and ALSO tackling a freelance commission for fantasy book cover! My goal is to share the development work and final imagery for both illustrations here with you on Patreon, as well as streaming both images live on Twitch!
*Speaking of Twitch, we are doing a bonus stream, Saturday 10AM EST. We'll be drawing dragons!

Hey Karien, All the brushes were from either the Mummy Minotaur or the Were-lizard sets. The grass was primarily a combo of the AP Smooth Crocodile brush and the Mummy Linen brush!

Which brush did you use when you painted the grass?

I agree Yggdrazill. It makes me want to start painting, but I haven't drawn or painted in years. Good luck!
