I had a Halloween themed nightmare once that I can use for inspiration
Hope I'll get time for it.

so i decided that my scariest idea was 'the mask remains' from my previous post. I've cleaned it up a bit, but some tips for anatomy are appreciated; not sure how the raised arm connects to the torso in the current pose. otherwise, some fantastic entries so far, i especially like asahi's woman monster thing !!!

I like the choice you made If you're having issues with anatomy and such, I'd highly recommend to draw a quick skeleton, using only lines and basic figures. My sketches start looking a lot like simple stickmen figures and afterwards I just fill in the blanks.
Just pretty basic stuff, but I thought you might find it useful

I love the way you mixed colours on the first steps. Did you use multiply option on the brush?

[Amaakir]

Impressive, Asashi :O I can't wait to see it finished!

[asahiart]

thanks both of you

for the process :

1st layer :sketch
2nd layer :basic color on a multiply layer
3rd layer : start painting on a normal layer

What you can do to blend a bit the colors, its' to use smudge tool too, i often rasterize all my layers to use it ( and make the file a bit lighter too ) but re-define tight after the shapes with a hard brush to avoid the blurry fuzzy render

Hope this can help

Definitely, I've had a hard time painting digitally, I'm a self taught artist and I've usually felt more comfortable doing only outlines so your advice is like a gold mine to me. I just love all your work, excellent

You're very welcome my fellow self-taught artist.

Hi there,

Here's my basic horseman concept.
But maybe not final, i'm not sure yet.
Still thinking.

Cheers.

If you dont mind me asking, what settings do u use on the smudge tool to blend colors like that?

My WIP. I'm not sure about it yet, but quite innocent-looking things scare me off.
