Illustration exploring mood, atmosphere and creature design. No client, no brief, nothing riding on it.

Leonardo for early exploration and thumbnailing, guided by licensed photo reference and my own sketches. The final artwork is painted and photobashed in Photoshop. Every finish here is done by hand.
