A DEATH STRANDING Fan Art
. . .
It's Friday, people! 💙💛💙💛Happy Weekend!
I promised myself that I would take my time with this one. That I'd just do the sketch for today and then I will eventually do it over the weekend.
But no. I ended up staying back a little longer at work to finish it because I wanted to see how it would turn out.
And here it is.
Also, this piece is inspired by the 2nd movement of Chopin's 2nd Piano Concerto, hence the title.
. . .
I see you... and I can hear you calling... but what will you do should I choose to answer?
The concept for this piece was inspired by the final episode of LOVE DEATH + ROBOTS Season 3 - Jibaro (a personal favourite of mine) in terms of the concept, and I was also hoping that I could capture the look of the episode, too.
However, as I went along, I realised, I was using a lot more blues and greys than I thought I would, resulting in something that, mood-wise, reminded me so much of a scene from the Netflix WITCHER series.
After a while, I thought I'd spruce it up with a bit of red -- cos I didn't think having only blue and grey suited the picture.
Ultimately, it sort of worked out. Not exactly as how I had initially pictured in my head, but I'm quite satisfied with what I managed to create in the end.
Will probably eventually revisit that concept again in the future, but with an attempt to recreate much more accurate what I see in my mind.
I have been thinking about drawing these for a while now ever since @voidoutbt and I started talking about the possibility of us being MULEs in the UCA, and after taking more in-game photos of the MULEs and discussing scenarios of us as them, I was finally motivated to try it.
It was a lot of fun to do! I got to put myself in my favourite uniform and live out a part of that fantasy. I guess for the face, I don't exactly look like that, but I'd like to think that I do XP
Anyways, yeah so after drawing one, I thought I had some fun with my expressions. I may add more in the future, but for now, yeah I have done my confused looked and also my oops-i-did-it-again look.
Oh and since I have been talking about this with @voidoutbt, I thought I'd make a doodle of them as one too! So here they are with me. Them being confident and mischievous-looking, while I look quite anxious and nervous at the back. So here they are: Franc and Cosmic.
And yes, I am always nervous.
