I had an idea to render a variation of an alien, namely the one in the film prometheus but to add something extra, my own spin on it. This involved mainly plenty of colour dodge to present an almost luminous effect to the skin and to overlay a single light from the eye, although I’m not quite sure I positioned it correctly.

Overlaying lots of my previous monster painting to try and create something original, lots of experimenting with texture and distorting and moving paint around.

Pushing my original Jon Snow portrait and combining with my White Walker portrait to see what Jon would look like if he was white walkered.
This is the power of digital art to be able to combine art together to create something new.

I wanted to apply a lightning techy type of luminous texture on the skin for this portrait.
I started this portrait in mono colour for a change and then applied colour towards the end.

Originally this portrait started out as a famous screaming scene from Game Of Thrones when the Mountain did what he does, but it was very difficult to get a good likeness, so I cheated and turned it into a horror face which meant I could get away with quite a lot.

Based on a reference photo of a scary looking tree at my parents and then pushing with a moon environment, there was extensive use of the foliage sticker spray to layer up the tree bark.
A simple landscape based on a reference photo I took at my parents. Mainly pastel based as it seems to give me a better blend in ArtRage.
In hindsight I think I applied a little too much texture.

Similar to my Mr Robot portrait I wanted to emphasize texture on the skin and to apply some blood type scars.
I started this using the hard pastel again to allow for some better skin blending.

Based on a reference from Istebrak’s Portrait Studio which allows any light setup for a model. I liked the idea of lighting a face from below. I had an idea to abstract out the eyes for some reason, maybe as I couldn’t quite get the eyes in the right place, so I cheated!!

Based on an idea my mum had for a story and I decided to save some time by creating a new sticker spray brush based on a photo I took of a macaroni piece.
