Next Steps

On By thom2020

A very short conclusion post.

The next steps for my project going into development and production of my final piece is to start thumbnailing, and find a large amount of reference material for the scenes I hope to create. I may have only referenced my own work on my concept, but for the background and to polish for painting I need to include a wide variety.

Looking at the history of League of Legends art helped me realise how far digital art has come in the past decade, and how far I have to go to keep up! I learned a lot about the type of things to include.

The most useful thing I did was the process breakdown, this will be invaluable in so many ways. From how to start out, how to layout, how to thumbnail. Right down to the painting process itself.

I can’t wait to start. First thing I’ll do is spend some time with the character over christmas trying out emotions and poses. Then I’ll move into thumbnailing in January.
I plan to create a full schedule, and track my hours when I work. But for that I need my timetable for next semester! So I’ll wait til then.
