Master and Servant 2D Entry: Andrew Dobell

#29

Hi Andrew… well after a fraught day your concept stories have cheered me up no end! Very amusingly written and very creative. As I am sure you are aware, part of the challenge “rules” are to show the emotional link between the Master and Servant so your beast will have to exude gleefulness/cunning/satiation etc. at having bought another soul. I like your last upload though and think it will work well. Glad there are so many UK residents taking part in this challenge. Good luck and I’ll be checking back to see how you progress. :thumbsup: Claireabella

Thankyou for your comments Claire. They are very much appreciated.
Im working on this image at work mainly in my dinner hour so I will be posting an update every few days most likely.

Yeah, it is one worry that your only seeing part of the master in this image, but I have a few ideas about that. Certainly your going to be able to see the emotion in the Girls face as she offers herself, body and soul, to this Elder God from the Outer Darkness! (Man, I read too much fantasy stuff!)
Anyway, yes, I shall be taking your comments into consideration as this image progresses as I need to get that emotion into the image somehow.

Check back soon.:thumbsup:

#31

Heres an update on my image. A few details added here and there. Slowly moving forward.
Made the image taller to fit more of the Tenticles in as well.

Let me know your thoughts!

ur skin shading is too dead, the colours are too dirty , try using clearer aray of saturated colours, with low opacity and changing modes between soft light and overlay, that shgould do the trick, cant wait to see how u handle organic texturing. Later:thumbsup:

#33

Thankyou nebezial, I shall see what I can do. I was thinking kinda similar things, im using a lot of black and I need to get away from it.
I have also tried to correct some of the proportions as they are off! Will update in a day or two.

#34

Cool concept but the proportions need to be adjusted. She looks very week below the arms. at first i thought she had palsey. I did not get this impression so much from the sketch, maybe more definition or exagerated perspective would remedy it. keep it up

#35

BayouBilly - Its the head mainly. And the closest hand. And the closest leg…:slight_smile: Anyway, its something I worked on after posting this image. Looks better now.
Thanks for popping by though, hope you keep checking it out.

#36

Heres what I have been doing so far. Mainly working on the Girl, She has been reworked a fair bit and it getting there. Not sure about the eyes, at the moment they are rolled back in their sockets, but Im wondering if it would be better to have them staring up at the Master.
Thoughts?

#37

Heres a another update. Bit more done, put some of the shapes in the background, worked on the girls outfit and the Tenticles.

Let me know any thoughts.

#38

Oo, nice skin tones - huge improvement from the dirty earlier colours. I really like the perspective at this point, neat looking down like that. How about adding some glow to the heart of the, er, tentacle-thingie - might be a nifty way of bringing in some more vibrant colours. (Like, a yellow-green reflecting from below, on her skin and her clothes).

Anyway - I love it so far :smiley: waiting for the next update!

#39

Ooooh, Like the glow idea, I was wondering what to do with the hole!

Well, after seeing the array of spectacular artwork on show, I knew I had to do something with those skin tones.
Glad you like it!

A bit strange…

The girl seems to be the master in her expression…
but the creature vegetal seems to have the power agaisnt the woman… see the floor it is growing on her… strange relation…

nice start anyway :slight_smile:

#41

Neozoom - The girl is deffinetly the servant. She’s offering her self to the Creature for her own twisted reasons. Her expression is mean to be one of “Take me, im yours!” as she waits in anticipation for whatever is to come.

That all said, im not 100% happy with her face yet, the eyes are giving me a headache.
I will bare your comments in mind though and have a think on it.
Thankyou for stopping by.

#42

Ok anarky I understand now :slight_smile: and yes with a better expression face It’ll be good :slight_smile:
THX for precisions

#43

I’d have to say that your piece is quite provocative, I like the progress, really helpfull for the likes of me…nice shadow work…

#44

Whoa! Thats freaky! I saw your M&S entry today for the first time and loved it so I subscribed to it. Then I come back a little later and you have posted to my Thread!

Im honored that you like it, I love your image and was staring at it for a while earlier today.
Well, keep checking back, there will be another update later in the week.

Thanks again!

#46

Heres my latest update. Fixed the eyes which im happirer with now. Worked on the outfit and started on the Tenticles.

Hope you like it!

#47

Another Update. I have adjusted the colours in the image a bit so that the Tenticles look more juicey and the Outfit is not just black and white. Also worked on a few more areas.

Hope you like it, let me know any thoughts you have.
