Latest Update: Final Image: King Midas

#2

I’m sure you all know the story of king Midas. He turned everything he touched into gold (or something else :slight_smile:

These are my first thumbnails just to get a pitcure about the feeling of the final image…

#3

King Midas - composition analysis

#4

second thumbnail - after composition fixes

#5

I decided to open up the space in the background, so I had to design a colum that fits to the world, but it can keep the background quite ‘clean’…

#6

well… the opend up background with the columns… time to do something with the main theme…

#7

good luck and good work.
hajrá hajrá;)

#8

a little figure-research…

#9

I didn’t find the composition ballanced enough in the pitcure, so I decided to change a bit in the camera angle… Therefore I designed the basics in 3D. If I use a camera angle like this, every minor mistake becomes really visible…

#10

composition, figue and structure fixes…

#11

colour research

#12

hey. that is a really nice idea you have there. and the development as well. i can already imaging it looking awesome. The Prussian helmet (?) looks better

#13

Great stuff! The angle really is good…good luck!

#14

THX! I’m trying, I’m trying… :slight_smile:

#15

That green-blue color looks splendid, with the golden metal of the gears it could
[left]do very good contrast. nice composition also. keep it in! [/left]

#16

work in progress - color, lighting…
It’s not easy if I have two so different lightsources and a material that reflects both of them…

#17

work in progress - new colors and elements…

#18

Hey Kamen,

Very original idea and like a lot your concept sketches :smiley: Your WIP´s are looking really great, the composition is very nice and really cool lighting mood. Good luck and looking forward for more updates! Cheers !!

Well thanks Fernando, I’ll try to do my best… I wish good luck for you too! :slight_smile:

Very nice work. The secondary figures look a bit too static though, shouldnt they be at least reacting to what they’re seeing? Some are fleeing, and maybe one or two actually caught up and being transformed.
