Fantasy Art - Rodney Matthews/Roger Dean influence

[salty]

I did this today. Im trying to improve at fantasy art. I wish I was much better at it than I am...but I was quite happy with how this turned out.

Ink and digital colour.

Enjoy.

Wish I could do artistic stuff.

I get pissed worrying about the correct angles on the protractor, and whether my lines are parallel (engineer talking here)

I'd love to make up landscape type things.

BTW . That pic could really be adapted to a lumleyesque "aeriescape", bit more darkness, few more shades of grey, (and I don't know why I say this).....nipples and lens flares ????????

I like the castle you did in CG on your site better, that was incredibly cool!

How the fuck do you do it, Salty?

 

[Spruce Goose]

Is there an elevator in that tree?

Thanks! That castle was fun to do. Except for the slightly off shaped sun...because of the angle i made the camera to get that sort of UP view on the castle.

Anyway...thanks guys glad you like my stuff!

You should do one of that castle at night with a moon high in the sky, that would be so damn Immortal
