I don't know if anyone's heard of Ragnarok Online.
But I play it from time to time. It's a cute game and I love the monsters.
I then had a thought... why not challenge myself and paint every single monster in human form?
Is ridiculous? Is it insane? YES! But can it be done? I will prove it can.
So this is just a WIP of the first monster, Acidus (gold).
I decided to go with a female figure because I think it fitted the monster better.
For each painting I do, I pick an artist who inspires me and try to incorporate something about their technique.
With this painting, I'm looking at Fabio Barboni's work. (0Effe0 @ dA)
I love his use of color and that's what I'm trying to work on with this.
The color that pops out is the yellow, which I'll eventually have some in the background. I'm using a red and blue/green as my other colors.
I obviously need to blend them in more. I still have so much to do. And I've spent so much time on it already. How frustrating it isssss.
I hope to finish within this month... hopefully.
Won't be posting any more WIPS of it here. I'm going to limit myself to 1 WIP shot per picture. But I may post close ups later...
Peace outside.
PS: There are 521 monsters in the game.
