This second year project was intended to make us design a monster that could come from a Monster Hunter game. We have to make a paint over for the final result. I choose to make a monster similar with the Legiana in Monster Hunter world, both in shape and behaviour. The twist is that it use its double tail like a weapon, similar to de Velkana in Iceborn with its tail it use as a lance. Also, and it was the difficult part, its textures were similar to insects. I took from butterflies, moths, and praying mantis. It was the hard part, because I composed with photographs, and since those creatures are so small, it was hard to find photographs with no blurr.
I not paint very much on the landscape, which is more of a photo montage than a paint over, and concentrated my efforts on the monster and the transparency of the wings.
