Third

I've been busy lately with family activity - but finally got some free time to be productive and make some new works in the spirit of Halloween.
These artworks were strongly influenced by Hellraiser films - portrayed by the design idea from the hell creatures I saw in the show.



Featuring my favourite dog breed,
the Saluki. I created this hellhound. I found interesting idea to pick up bright colour for the fur to make it a bit more interesting than the typical black colour ideas.
I also featured pure white for his eyes to give more empty feeling of the creature. The metal inputs are mostly own ideas but I admit using Hellraiser features - leather and iron. I made my own ideas and combinated them with dog anatomy.
I loved to play a lot with the strong contrasts in the work and used from completly white to completly black tones to give better depth to the work.
I loved to work with this one.







I used more cyber features in this one to make it look different and yet still scary.
Was interesting to work again with the bright colours on the fur which is a bit closer to reality and "more believable" in my sight - especially visually. It was a great experience to work with the emotional part of this work, with his eyes and to achieve this "sick" and very unnatural but still real life based feeling.
The goal was to create something scary which is closer to the reality with colours and features - giving real horror feeling instead of dark fantasy.
I need to do more works like this to try myself in other areas in the art world.







On other hand I started to dig up some of my sketches to colour them and build up my portfolio finally. I need new works where I can show my current level and style since I improved quite a lot from year to year and learnt new techniques in the digital world.

Old sketch I loved so much and always wanted to colour it. It needs some minor changes to fit the horse anatomy even better. I am playing with fire here, since I was more comfortable with winter and cold visual effects.
It still needs some changes in the neck and on the head, but slowly its improving the way I imagined. Of course I will do my best to make the final result powerful and the way I see it in my head. I love to work the little details and trying to work with new and rarely used colours from my palette.
