Este trabajo lo he creado para el próximo número de la revista digital "Lupus in Fabula" Me propusieron hacer un trabajo inspirado en el mundo de Tolkien y me decanté por un Nazgul y su montura. He de reconocer que aunque empecé a leer La Comunidad del Anillo nunca fuí capaz de acabarlo xD, pero las películas si me han gustado mucho.
"I created this work for the next number of the digital magazine "Lupus in Fabula". They proposed me to paint something related to Tolkien's fantasy world and I decided to paint a Nazgul and his mount. I must admit that I tried to read "The fellowship of the ring" and I couldn't finish it, but I really like the movies" :)
El primer paso para crear esta obra fué buscar referencias.
Para dibujar al personaje me basé en fotogramas de las películas y videojuegos del Señor de Los Anillos. La verdad es un diseño bastante simple y carente de demasiados detalles, a excepción de los guanteletes, la mayor complejidad radica en los pliegues de la ropa.
En cuanto a la montura decidí variarlo un poco respecto a los diseños originales, pero manteniendo la estructura anatómica que presentan.
"The first step to create this painting was to find references. I looked for movie frames and images from the videogames. Actually the Nazgul design is pretty simple except for the gauntlets. The most complex part of it was to paint realistic clothing folds. As to the mount I decided to change a bit the original design, keeping the anatomy structure of the dragon."
"Last september I visited London with my boyfriend and we brought with us 12GB of photos and many of them are great references for drawings and illustrations. Can you guess who helped me to paint the clothing?" :D
"At the beggining I just only drew the Nazgul figure because I didn't know if I had enough time to paint the mount. The first step was to paint the background, then I sketched some quick lines to delimit the character and his clothes and finally I started to paint the volumes of the cloth."
"Given that I had enough time for adding more details I started to paint the dragon. I didn't want to lose all the background so I tried that it didn't monopolize the whole illustration. (This happens when you don't plan as you should your work >.<) I used some texture brushes to paint its scales."
El siguiente paso fué añadir más detalles a la ilustración y continuar definiendo los volúmenes. Antes de lanzarme a completar algo hago varias pruebas con pinceladas rápidas para hacerme una idea de como quedarán.
"The next step was to add some details and continue defining volumes. Before detailing something I use to do some quick rough sketches to see how it looks. "
Finalmente detallo a fondo todos los componentes del trabajo, intentando crear las texturas de cada material. Me gusta trabajar con pinceles con texturas. Muchos de los que uso son de fabricación propia, auque últimamente he estado probando estos de Dan LuVisi que me encantan y que podeís encontrar en su DA
"Finally I detail every component of the illustration trying to create the appropriate textures of each object. I really like to use texture brushes. Most of those wich I use were created by me, but lately I've been testing these ones created by Dan LuVisi and I love them! You can find them on his DA "
I'm very happy with the result of this work! You can watch it also on my DA account:
and on Shadowness, where it got a Daily Feature! (yay! ^_^)
