Splinterlands Art Contest Week 279: Dhampir Infiltrator

Talking about backgrounds as I did the last time I made my entry for the contest. I made some effort in correcting my lazy attempt. I know this isn't much but it is a first step towards the right direction. And besides, the whole background was originally drawn by yours truly without the use of any reference.

Since the character in the card I chose to explore was a Dhampir Infiltrator I thought to make the background gruesome with a fresh kill (hence the blood on the knife on your lower left). The first idea however was to draw a bunch of eyes with open teeth's ready to suck blood (some old vampire, Dracula style if you know what I mean) but then it developed into that which is before you.

Another hiccup I encountered was that after the painting was done, it stood out from the background so I dabbed it with some red.

these are the process....

Thanks for the visit.
