A somewhat maximalist, very collage-heavy experiment piece this month, using a lot of my photography and some old Slovenian art

Digital collage and painting on vertical canvas
Theme: Fantasy / Dark fantasy / Experimental
Character: My OC Lubi (he/him, transmasc) and a skeleton
#Artsky #QueerArt #TransArt #DarkFantasy #SwordAndSorcery

This piece is almost entirely composed of photographs I took. It features a central long corridor that disappears into the darkness, every side of it a different texture. The left and right walls are photos of old walls, the ceiling is wood, and the floor is an enlarged photo of a gingerbread cookie I bought in a Polish shop in Ljubljana once, overlaid with an assortment of Turkish delight from Lidl. I've had these two photos for like 3 years and I'm so happy to finally put them to use lmao

In the front, slightly left stands a knight, who was traced with a lasso tool over a relief sculpture from Celje. He's wearing a dark armour with very colourful accents on skirt and flag, and his head is a fire. On his knee guards, one can spot a unicorn and a stag beetle in trans flag colours.

In the upper right corner, a dragon's head is sticking out of a wall, the fire it breathes joining in with the knight's fire hair. For this head I used a photo from an ornament on one of the 'healing springs' near my hometown. It's coloured in somewhat garish colours that reoccur across the picture, magenta, aqua, green and blue, and notably three of its fangs depict the white, pink and blue or the trans flag.

Lastly, underneath the head stands a skeleton, cut from the famous Danse Macabre fresco from the Holy Trinity Church in Hrastovlje. The skeleton is orange with green shadows, and splashes of magenta on some parts of its body.

Finally I took some pics of our latest crafting project! My partner @vyrosk.bsky.social & I build ourselves a chest from scratch & I decided to paint something into the arches. It was challening to work on, but I also enjoyed wood working & painting traditionally for once. #medieval #art

self-build medieval chest. dark wood with 3 arches each arch has a little scene with a colourful tree and a night sky with gold stars painted into it. there magpies sitting in the trees

Style study 4/4 - Frank Frazetta The finale! It was hard to mimic a traditionally painted style in Paint Tool SAI, and while it did turn out better than I expected, it's definitely not as close a match as the previous studies. A lot of thoughts about this one in alt text!

The work process of this felt very odd. My goal was authenticity, so I used many references for different parts of the painting. I'd paint the ground first start to finish, using some of his paintings with matching ground style as reference. Then I'd paint the knee, and use a bunch of his paintings with a similarly positioned knee, etc. Basically every different bit was fully painted before I went on to the next one. That's exactly what fake drawing tutorials on old deviantART looked like lmfao.
This took two weeks, not because of the process (actually very fun), I just had a lot of other things going on. Sadly the frustration with the long work did really get to me, which ended up with some very unhappy hours towards the end.

A few parts kinda break my immersion here, aside from it being clearly digital. Big one being that the character feels too specific. When I look at Frank's work, unless it's Conan or his OC do not steal Death Dealer, I always get the feeling that I am looking at a somewhat vague warrior figure, but Ire's design very distinct, which is not what I'd expect to see in Frazetta's works. Recognizable character designs in S&S feel more within Whelan's realm. Another bit where I think I failed a little is that the axe is too fine and smooth and loses some of that chunkier painting style he's known for.

--------------------------------
IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
Character: Ire (OC, he/him)
#Artsky #QueerArt #DarkFantasy #SwordAndSorcery

Digital painting in style of Frank Frazetta depicting a shirtless, green axe-holding warrior standing on rocky ground against a light background. The foreground is darker and detailed, while behind is foggy blue cliff, a yellow-orange sky and a partially clouded white sun.

The character wears a furred loin cloth and tall sandals. His body is white and his head is brown with distinct markings and 2 black horns. His black hair is waving in the wind. My signature is in the bottom left corner, mimicking the shape of Frazetta's.

Style study 3/4 - Mike Mignola From all the studies, I probably learned the most from this one, and Mignola's use of heavy black shadows and simple shapes was a delight to try out. More thoughts in alt text!

I really enjoyed working on this one. I admit that Mignola is an artist that like.. I have been aware of for a long time, but until this I never really looked at the larger body of his work. I especially love the heavy use of black in this style (I read Frazetta was a big inspiration for him and it shows lmao). With my piece, I really enjoy how I stylized Ire's hair and axe. There was almost a therapeutic simplicity to working in this style, similarly to the Tartakovsky one. Fantastic shapes.
Colour was a slightly trickier element for this, but I think I ended up with a fairly Mignola-ish palette. Speaking of colour, or lack thereof, I've been meaning to develop my black & white art more, and studying Mignola's work feels like it'll give me some good insight for that!

--------------------------------
IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
Character: Ire (OC, he/him)
#Artsky #QueerArt #DarkFantasy #SwordAndSorcery

Digital drawing done in the style of Mike Mignola (Hellboy). It features a heavy use of flat black shadows, placing Ire into what seems like a cave tunnel. He appears to be walking through a rough, rocky terrain. The piece has a black, red, green and orange palette.
Ire is holding his green axe in his right hand. The right arm is entirely blacked out, only highlighting three red scars, but the part of the axe that reaches into the shadow of the background is silhouetted in bright green.
Ire is wearing a green tank top and a red loin cloth fastened by a studded belt. His hair is long and black, with thick strands looking almost like tendrils. His body is white, while his face is brown with red and black markings. Two small black horns extend from his head.
