(I was literally going to do the Gravity Falls idea until I remembered exactly where I'd got it from, lol).
This image is instantly what I thought of for this prompt and I can't get it out of my head to let any other ideas in! I've never seen (read?) gravity falls though - I was thinking I must have seen it with dino footprints in Jurassic park or something.
-
@Braden-Hallett This is a great idea and is looking great so far! I love the concept.
-
Nice! That's literally the same gravity falls panel I had up on my board for this one as well
It definitely took a while I see what is in the description - it wasn't connecting at first glance. Are the footprints themselves still frozen? I'm definitely seeing the flowers and the bunny now at first glance.
-
Great idea thinking outside the box! The concept definitely fits the brief and the key words.
How about changing the perspective just a tag bit more to an ariel view... so the snowy footprints are more prominent and easily identifiable based on shape.
Looking forward to see this develop!
-
Thanks everyone! I hear what you're sayin. I think the image needs some tweaking (but I'm still hopeful it could work!) I also may do the standard really BIG footprint scenario instead. We'll see!
Gonna take a quick break from this one til about the 15th to try and throw a book dummy together, so no progress for now
-
Looked at the other entries. Saw there are one or two that mine was preeeetty close to, so I decided to go in a completely different direction
Got to a simple coour comp. Next is sketch and minipainting.

@Braden-Hallett i love it but the way the footprints are laid out are flattening the sphere but im guessing its just a rough everything else is great

@Braden-Hallett I don't know if you meant to, but the planet kinda looks like a fish? The ice caps on the top look like fins and the alien like the tail. Maybe it's just me
Check out my art and tutorials :)

Making the footprints follow the form is definitely on my change list
I think I may have them kinda curling around the icy outcroppings -

Oh my gosh it really does! And if the cast shadow were the other way it would totally act as a gill
-
@Braden-Hallett great idea.
-
I THINK the penumbra of the cast shadow from the off camera asteroid is okay. I did some reference seeking with a lamp and some upturned bowls, lol.
-
Work continues!
Next I get to add some texturey strokes
-
Scratch that. NOW I'm ready to add texturey strokes.
-
I think it's pretty much done. I'm gonna add some white to the left footprints, but I like how it's turned out
-
@Braden-Hallett This looks great! I love the shapes that you've used! Your coloring looks amazing as well, there is a great sense of lighting in this. Great work!
-
@Kali Thanks!
-
@Braden-Hallett Wow! Braden. Wow. Your work has gotten fantastic! I guess all that lighting and stuff really paid off. I think you are a real pro now and should be getting a lot of work soon. Of course, you could always teach us other learners, too.
P.S. You could sell this now as a poster and I would buy one. Great job.
