[Riot Art Contest] - Bloodmoon Syndra.

Arseniac

Hi everyone ! O/. I'll try to participate too. ♥. So I decided to take Syndra and create a skin for her: Bloodmoon Syndra. (Yes, I loved Bloodmoon Kalista)

Arseniac

Then, My first sketch with a lil'chibi.



Try some compositions:

Arseniac

My first step, yep, it's very ugly like this ahah.





And go for the painting !

Arseniac

My last step I made and I still have lots more to work on .. QQ. I'm so bad for the background .. If you had any tips for me, I'll be so ... Happy, I imagine ? Ahah. (Ps: The flower is only here for step it will not be here for the grand final).

wow! It looks amazing! I'm not the best person to give advice about bgs but if you want to add some depth, you could lighten the houses in the bg. Generally values from foreground to background go from dark to light to give the effect of the bg fading off into the distance. The masks are in the very close foreground now, but seem to have about the same value as the houses, so if you lighten the value of the houses a bit (like, slightly darker than the sky), it might help make the image a bit easier to read ^^;

Arseniac

Ok, I'll try. o/. I didn't worked the BG yet so, it's why the houses has same value but ty very much. (And sorry for my bad english. ^^')

I really like it so far! One Idea I had was to make the moon larger and directly behind her to make her more of a focal point in the picture, since at the moment it blends in with the balls a lot :] I noticed riot did something like this in the Lunar goddess Diana skin and it make her face more of a focal point! It could also give her some witch-flying-over-the-moon-esque feeling~

Arseniac

Wip, wip, wip. QQ.

Arseniac

@keeneye : I'm sorry I didn't saw your message... but newer mind xD. I thought about the moon bit I don't think it's a good idea: the moon will waste all the composition, we will see nothing. ^^'. I still can try tomorrow a quickly sketch :-). Ty for the advice. .

mechbunnies

oh wow this is a really cool skin! I love the mask!

Arseniac

mechbunnies: thanks so much ! :-D

Aaron Radney

I will give you kudos for the exceptionally dramatic and difficult lighting task you're attempting here. You're demonstrating good control so keep it up. I'll keep checking back.

Arseniac

@aaron: thanks to support me. . A friend told me it was too dark so I was thinking about to add fire in the foreground but I am afraid about the deadline. . XD.

Arseniac

@KeenEye:

Arseniac

Working the FX for the attack.

I'm thinking 'bout to add some weapons in the foreground:

For me, Japan has always been a complex topic, so I respect those who take for it. I'm sure it will be beautiful. It is a pity that the time is coming to an end.

Arseniac

I think it's finish. .

Koni

Beautiful work !
I think you should to intensify the color with the saturation option

Arseniac

@Koni: Such a honor for me, ty for the compliment. QQ. So you mean something like this ?

Koni

like this ?

Arseniac

Koni

I love the color ambiance now !

Arseniac

Me too, thx for the good advice. xD.

KeenEye

My only suggestion would be to add some of the orange light from the lamp onto her.

Arseniac

@KeenEye: I tried but I though this isn't beautiful, lantern doesnt illuminate so much.


Finally:
