Quetzalcoatl Banner | Final Fantasy XV War for EOS

I created this banner art starting with a rough sketch and then worked

1. I did three black and white rough sketches were made to visualize the best way to show the Quetzalcoatl monster in the game play environment.

2. I picked the 2nd sketch and made I clean line drawing of it so I could splash some color and value around without loosing the structure the line drawing provided.

3. A color rough was an intermediary step before going to the final render. That tends to be a good way to proceed helping to keep the whole thing from going off course as time is of the essence in production art.

4. Final render. Tech used: 3D model of the monster with photoshop paint over.
