Lux Vega
Good evening everyone.
Despite having gone through some bad days and an artistic block, I decided to take things a little more calmly, I had again that mood and inspiration to continue and even wanted to do a little more complicated work, I chose a card that aesthetically I love: Lux Vega and decided to recreate it in a very bold and realistic style, all the details were made with great care and trying to be as accurate as possible to be happy with the result, in the end I love how it looks, I hope you like this version.
Proceso/Process
I made my sketch, this time I wanted to be inspired by the original costume but changing some things, leaving some parts of the body more uncovered, I wanted to change the size of the hat making it smaller and I liked the idea of keeping the hairstyle with braids, although I knew it would be a challenge to paint it later.
I started to color the skin with a very pale and desaturated lilac tone then I started to add more colors to the skin with similar tones, giving it lights and shadows, I mixed the colors until I left a soft skin but with a light texture, little by little I started to paint each garment of her wardrobe starting with the top, then the skirt and then the gloves, it was time to paint the hair and I used different shades of desaturated blue for this, I think this was the part that took me the longest because I painted each braid differently and following the shape I gave it at the beginning.
I gave volume to each part of the costume so it didn't look so flat, then I painted the hat with dark brown and then I added the details like the red gem in the center, for the background I wanted a solid color, I chose a light tone that was more in line with my drawing, then I painted some cards floating around and finally I edited the image adjusting the saturation, contrast and exposure of the whole drawing, plus I added a darker effect to the edges.
