Baneling
[image loading]
60x70 Acrylics on Canvas

Thoughts


      Mouth
As you can see, I haven't really touched the mouth yet. I have started approaching it roughly but I will now go into much more detail and of course get rid of the white that you still see shining through at that area. I am not quite sure how I'll end up forming the upper part of the mouth. Maybe you have an idea.


      Other finishing touches
You'll also notice a bit of a 2D feel to it that I will tackle with adding a few light brushes on the acid bubbles and a general retouch of the shading.

I will also add a lot more detail to the baneling to give it a more organic feel. (e.g. adding veins to the bubbles)


      More thoughts
You might stumble over the orange, thinking "... but Banelings aren't bright orange". The orange is really bright, you can't actually see how bright on this picture unfortunately. It adds a bit of edge and more importantly another unrealistic element and the ability to draw attention to certain areas. I will apply more orange to the mouth area when I finish that up to increase the idea of this little fella being quite dangerous.


I'd be happy to get some feedback from you.
I hope to finish the painting within the next few days.

It is still very much work in progress. I'm just a bit stuck at the moment and thought a bit of conversation could give me the inspiration I need to finish it.

Technically, this one doesn't have eyes either. The acid bubbles look like eyes though. I decided to give it "a face". It is very much an interpretation of a baneling rather than a 1 to 1 copy from the unit screen. By giving it a face you give it somewhat of a personality if you will.

Any more feedback? Going to work on it tomorrow. Hopefully finishing it.
