Crimson Talon by Jed Uy |
Paint Tool SAI is a fantastic piece of software that I have recently adopted. It really does allow for some slick linework, something that I experimented with for this particular artwork.
Stylistically, I was inspired by the beautiful, ornate fantasy illustration of Yoshitaka Amano and Tomomi Kobayashi -two brilliant artists. The prince exhibits some more elaborately-designed armour than I might usually draw, and an overall more fey appearance.
In terms of other influences, his outfit also has shades of an avian motif (peacock feathers, swan-like pauldrons, etc), but I also drew a little inspiration from several kinds of teapot of all things(!)
