Description
A wicked white dragon bears his teeth at you as he perches upon a set of snow covered boulders. Around him is a snowy landscape with tufts of dead grass and bare twigs. Fir trees line the field while snow capped mountains rise in the distance.
In the world of the RPG Dungeons and Dragons, white dragons were the smallest of the chromatic (evil) wyrms. Rather than belching fire, they spit frost.
About how I create my artwork:
Rather than traditional forms of art such as painting or photography, I use a computer to create my images. It's called 3D Rendering and works like so: I make a scene by sculpting and arranging digital models in a virtual 3D space. After stipulating lighting and atmospheric effects, I have the computer create a simulated environment from which I take a virtual snap shot of the scene. Then, using image editing software and something more akin to traditional painting techniques (via a Wacom tablet), I go over the work adjusting colors, adding brushwork, painting in details, etc. to produce the final image. Software I use includes: Sculptris, ZBrush, Blender3d, Vue, Daz Studio, and GIMP.
Thanks for looking!
