The bulls
I had the pleasure to do the 2D Sequence Illustration by Patrick O'Keefe on Learnsquared and this is my final rendered illustration for the class.
My idea was to illustrate a story of soldiers discovers a new species of animals in the swarm while focusing on storytelling and cinematic.
Final render
Lesson 1 : reference board of character
Lesson 1 : reference board of the environment
Lesson 2 : Thumbnails
Lesson 3: Color test. I had a clear idea about the color and mood choice before I started the painting already so I did 1 and went straight for it.
Before rendering: photo study of trees and a swarm. This time, I focus on shapes and lightings.
Before rendering: I extended my studies with some more bulls by focusing more on shapes and designs.
Render 1/3: Lay down shapes colors.
Render 2/3: Adding lights and more details.
Render 3/3: Details
