Project precisions

Hello everyone,

just want to add something regarding Démie's question about your project. YES you have to stick with the main elements I want. But, for exemple, all themes can be exploited into something funny or in a lighter tone. Your style may be more suitable for comedy.

About the Sea Beast theme, there is no indication that the beast is a menace. You could make it friendly and still have an epic adventure feel to the whole thing.

Take your time to think about it till thursday. You can take 5-10 minutes during next class to draw
your lineup.

As I said, you still have a lot of freedom. Stick with me for the 8 weeks left and you can alter it anyway you like when this class is over. The goal here is to build a striking image.

This is still Gothic Horror:

    Thank you for the precision :)
    I did get that the "sea beast" could be a creature that gives a feeling of awe or wonder, but I'll keep this one as a plan B ;o)

    My first idea though I'm not sure if fits in "Castle of blood". I had in mind to do a dragon attacking a castle (the dragon would be the "monster"... and would probably more "fire-ry" than "bloody") with the Royal's trying to escape with the baby... But I think it's more a "fantasy" theme than "gothic horror" one... And that's where I'm hesitating a lot :/

Not sure I'll have much more time to push this before tomorrow's class (I have a parent thingy in the morning) so here's where I'm at now (still so much to do...), but I'm about satisfied with how it's going (I'm still missing some shadows that the Queen is casting on her griffin, some fur texture too, dragon is not finished, the King not even started (but he's going to be easy and kinda fast to do) (I'll probably lake some time to reach the deadline... I'm looking at my schedule and what's left... I might miss couple of hours, maybe a day... or two!?  Not panicking... not!

Trying new things. Here is where it was yesterday evening (dragon close to be done). A. I kept having the same comment about the background. At least half of the time, people saw the bushes at the line of horizon like clouds, sky nearly touching the castle.  So I gave it a try to change the time of day/night, to make it more obvious what's "sky" and what's "bushes and horizon line". Tried to improve the night atmospheric perspective at the same time (which is counter intuitive, cuz it's the opposite of day time). B. I was also told more than once that the distance between dragon (middle ground) and griffin (foreground) is really not obvious. Mostly because of the colors, so bright and sharp in the middle ground (as much, if not even more than foreground). There should be some sort of atmospheric perspective there too, but I'm not sure I to do this with this kind of scene. While talking with someone else, we thought I might ...
