Klasz: Thank you! Once you read my story, you will know the reason that why I organized the interactions between those creatures in such way. Now I do have the clear storyline in my mind, I will write it down once I finish the rendering of details. :slight_smile:

Alon: AHHHH!!! You came! I was sooooo happy to see your reply! Only you know how I keep talking about your awesome artworks with Jack. :smiley: Too bad that I never had the chance to catch you online because of the time difference. That sketch is the gift of the day! Totally rocks! I will see what I can do with my piece tonight, now I can’t wait to finish work and run home. Thanks a lot for coming and your support!

Wow everything is going so great here :applause: - I’m feeling lonely on my topic :smiley:


#143

Worked on the texture of the alien.


#144

Alien looks terific. looks like gozilla a bit.

So Alon give great suggestions to improve your picture: compositing, color, difference between close up and background, human mood.

David.

It is becoming very interesting now. Alon has some good points there. But again, it falls on you to make your own decision. Keep going, Donglu!


#147

Wow thats creepy - it looks like there are parasite-like creatures living in the transparent monster :surprised


#148

Wow, that’s crazy! I love the concept, and it’s turning out really nice. Can’t wait to see the soldiers frantically attacking the beast! Love the colors and the textures…well done. I’m looking forward to the final entry!

Kerem: Thanks for the compliment! You got a really nice entry too, keep it up!

Davee: David, thank you! Yes, Alon gave some really good suggestions, I will keep the new foreground for sure!

Neville: Thanks, you made me blush…I am no match to you in terms of portraying the tenderness and longingness between lovers. Good luck to you too!

Jeromoo: Thanks for coming! You are right, I am still playing with the piece and see how Alon’s suggestions would fit in, but I am 100% sure that I will change my original foreground, the new one just really adds emotions to this piece. I am really running out of time for this challenge…

TCPortfolio: Trey, thank you for all the kind words and support! :slight_smile:

I like the composition that He suggest . So maybe you will be able to mix up your idea and his idea to make something great!

Good job and see you next time!

[left]Ei Donglu. Dragon alien works really good in image. Really amazing.:bowdown: Much better than the ships. Very good the decision of making it a litle transparent and dont sacrifice the sky.[/left]
[left]I like what Along chou have done with humans position. Its more dinamic. Also like thats dolphins which are being absorbed near aliens mouth. Its make the image more worrying.[/left]

U are really doing a good job.
Best wishes for u.

Ataulfo: Thank you for the encouragement! As I said earlier, I will modify the foreground for sure like what Alon have suggested. the best of luck to you with your entry! :slight_smile:

I got a bit carried away with this detailing process. Here is two sections of the alien at 100% resolution and the brushes that I have used.


#156

I love the alphas.


#157

After I got that sketch from Alon, here are the changes that I made to my image!


#158

A close up of a newly added nymph which is being aspirated by the alien along with the dolphins.


#159

Beautiful colors


#160

Oh yes :slight_smile: That last close-up could be a complete picture alone.
