HI!
I decided to bring you this "work in progress" of a Watercolor I made last year, I have other two WIP's that i'll be posting for the next week, in each one (including this) I'll explain step by step, helping with some pics, the process I went through =)
Hope u like it!
For this illustration I was thinking on a Post-Apocalyptic scene, so, I took as a refference the game I AM ALIVE, a short game set on this ambience I wanted to create. Saw some concept art and also played the Demo for PS3.
So, after I got all the refferences needed I did this sketch:
Some collapsed buildings and this character risking his life
in the middle of the composition...
So, I started painting, first layer to know colors and position of
every object and get rid off all those white spaces...
At the same time I started to try to control the perspective
and the change of planes...
In here I already had all the objects with its respective color
so I coul start focusing just on the change of planes and the little details,
like reflections and some pipes and cables that are hanging...
To bring some of the building to the foregound I added some shadows and darker colors
was pretty difficult cuz it's a backlighting scene and almost everything should be dark...
Then sended to the background the brown
building at the right by taking out some pigment and Finally I added a very
watery ocher to the whole composition...
And this is the final Result =)
Everything made on a 23x16,5cm Fine grained watercolor paper of 370gr
If you have any question about the process, don't hesitate to asking =D
Hope u Liked it!
