Quix / Splinterlands Art Contest! Week 188
Time for another round of Splinterland Fan Art! This time I am going to show you my version of
Quix The Devious
Funny thing is - I have never played this mighty Dragon summoner. But my guildmate @kotenoke likes him a lot and after he saw my (Easter bunny) Tarsa he suggested I'd paint Quix next.
Since I didn't know anything about Quix I read up on him in his Splinterlands lore and decided to concentrate on these bits quoted from the lore
- he found that he could levitate
- the ability to interrupt projectiles inflight
I created my painting digitally in Procreate App starting as usual with a pencil sketch, actually a lot of them because I wasn't quite sure about the pose and looks that I wanted to give Quix.
I knew I wanted him to levitate and have projectiles flying around him under his control. So, in the end, I decided on this pose, tilted it a bit, and started detailing and coloring.
This vision that I had was very clear in my mind, however, bringing it to paper proved to be a lot harder. You will see in the process gif below that colors and the dynamic circles changed quite a bit until I had them the way I wanted them, mostly.
The background presented a bit of a challenge, I wanted something not too elaborate. I played around with a lot of different fx-brushes but didn't really like any of them until I found this one. It was created by GeorgBrush.Club - anyone else having way too many digital brushes in their library?!
I changed layer opacities and blending of the background layers back and forth and finally settled on this one giving the whole picture a bit of depth. So, here is the finished piece, and below is the gif of the whole process (almost).
Have a great rest of your day!
Cheers,
(Ocean)Bee

This is awesome! I love that you made him ripped too. Quix spent some time in the gym since garnering all this popularity :D
!LOLZ
Hahaha - true! Thanks a lot for the rec to paint Quix. BTW - I still haven't played him.
Also, I actually forgot to enter in the write-up that I wanted him to look a bit like a devious djinn - hmm, maybe I should edit...
