Hello, everyone!
"Life On Planet Alien" is available as a timed release print for you in TheScottCShop.com. But only until August 14th. So first off, go get that thing right now!
I would like to take you on a little tour of the MAKING OF this painting. Does that sound like an enjoyable idea? Well, then let's do it. Starting with the doodles and brainstorming sketches here...
Here you can see the various thumbnails for the entire piece. I knew i wanted to have a lot of aliens hanging about together. I toyed with having them all in that big gun room and all over the egg in the movie poster. The egg won the idea battle.
Just doodling aliens enjoying their days and nights.
I figured the face huggers would probably be hanging about on the faces of people.
My favorite little moments were cut out and arranged onto the egg in photoshop. Real rough.
Printed out the drawing and traced it onto watercolor and started with the skins as usual! My superstitious start to all paintings.
All the greys! Make me feel like i am accomplishing a lot.
Goin through and painting the aliens.
Oh, man. The lines! My favorite part.
Just doin those lines.
It's all in there. now to punch up those values there.
Punchin.
Sometimes i turn this thing upside down to get to the top bits.
ALL DONE.
AND here is the print version.
THE END
Thank you, gang. see you!
And remember, you only have until AUGUST 14th to order the print! And they won't ship until September once we know the edition size.
