Happy Halloween!

A while back I did a Vampire piece for Wizards of the Coast and I thought it perfectly fitting for the season and my favorite holiday.  I really had a blast with this one and am glad I can finally show it off.  Here is the piece as well as a little bit of my process.

Happy Halloween!!

    Love seeing your process, your work is very inspiring to me and my own work.

    What is your method of adding color to your grayscale image?

    Thank you Ambrose. when it comes to my method of adding color over the gray image, it is kind of a mixed bag. Traditionally I would glaze in colors lightly as my keys, in oils. This piece was digital so I do a very similar thing but using multiply, overlay, soft light, and color layers. Each have their own advantages and I use them according to what I am after for the area. I do this as a blocking in technique. Once these areas are roughly keyed to what I want, I then paint in the areas manually and much more opaquely. Hope that helps

    It s lovely piece.

    It is also interesting how iconography gets set into place, such as the look of Dracula from the Lugosi film, which was itself adapted from a touring stage play.
