This artwork was a commission piece for a Dungeons And Dragons group that wanted to see their players from their 4 year campaign commemorated as a movie poster.
The Final rendered piece
While playing the campaign initially, the team used hero forge as well drew their OCs themselves to visualize gameplay. The client drew out a simple sketch to show me what they were envisioning the poster to look like.
building off of the initial sketch, and pulling up references of other teams, I provided these iterations with a focus of capturing different feelings and showing different levels of group chemistry and skill level.
the client made selections of what they liked from the previous iterations and additional references were gathered to refine the communication of ideas.
options showing a group pose and layout for the graphics.
client was happy with the layout and vibe from lighting sketches.
starting the final piece from line art. making pose tweaks based on clients vision.
values and costume designs are being fleshed out, following the initial sketches and hero forge references as closely as possible.
