Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (Special) Week 2




Hello Stellar People


 Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Illustration week 2. 

From the Concept (Bottom) we try to flesh out the ideas; this can sometimes be a long process, but since I'm the art director I wanted a few thing: Short hair Zelda, Long Hair Link with spectral arm, and withered Ganon right eye red moon and left eye malice.  So.. concept 3 had all of those elements.

Next we went to ink ruff sketch to work out composition (top)

Then took the ruff ink comp and fade that back to draw on top for pencil sketch( third image).  Since I'm drawing digitally I draw each character on a different layer so I can change size and positioning. Very useful.

Then I make a loose Black and White composition trying to get closer to final block-in (second image). All of the illustration main elements are present Ganon, Zelda, Link, Master Sword (corrupted) and Monster Hoard on bottom.  Still some refining to do but.. I love it!

Next up: to finalize the design with background, ruff colors to add and detailing.

Keep Shining
