Crystal Character



Finished off a concept painting of my crystal character and I am really pleased with the result! The most difficult part was getting the lighting right on both the character and the cave but it seems to have worked out in the end.
I might go back and do some tweaking at some point.

The painting is used to illustrate what I wanted the character to be like aesthetically and how it would live. He is designed to be made of both rock and crystal and I imagine him being rock on the outside and crystal on the inside. If he were to be damaged more crystal would be exposed. I also like the idea that the crystal could grow and morph and maybe the sediment/rock covering him would just build up over time based on his surroundings.
