Character Design for Concept Art

The first thing you will do is immerse yourself fully in the world of concept art, diving in search of visual references that will help you create your character.

Next, Alexander will talk to you about the materials he usually uses and show you how he creates the previous sketches, which he will later scan to edit digitally.

Once these sketches are finished, you will start working with them in Photoshop. It will be then when you add the first strokes of color, which will help you obtain volume in the forms.

When you have finished preparing your illustrations, Alexander will teach you some tips and tricks to make a professional presentation to the client.

Once the first version of your character is approved, you will learn to use digital brushes and to play with light and color to create an environment according to the appearance of your creature. You will make the final touches and add the last details to the illustration.

Finally, you will correct the last imperfections and understand the importance of staying away from the project for a few hours to see your own illustrations with an objective look.
