Digital Painting Tutorial: Painting Monsters
Concept Art Genre: Sci-Fi Creatures
Subject: How to Paint Scary Monsters
Monsters can be scary as hell - but why? What makes us recoil in horror from one monster but not really care about another?
Humans are hard-wired to recognize certain things about creatures and animals - is this thing a threat? Can it eat me? Should I run from it? As concept artists, we can learn how to use those built-in human reactions to design creatures that really get our viewer's attention.
In this 15 minute video I challenge you to practice blending realism with your artistic technique-to create a compelling monster. So grab your stylus and let's paint your world.
Key Take-Aways: How to create a scary monster by playing with Anatomy, Rendering and Dramatic Lighting to produce an authentic, visceral horror reaction.
→ Evoking Familiar Anatomy
