Painting it’s all done!

This took a pretty long time but I had a blast doing it. I learned a lot about colors and painting “glow in the dark” effects.

I ended up darkening the background to make them pop up more and I’m loving how it looks now with the contrast and the colors.

I’ll be uploading the video process soon so you can all watch how this piece was done.

Up North there is a legend that is passed around by the locals, about a creature that roams the snow-covered winter forests, for some, it is just that a legend, a story to tell around the campfire but for others this legend is real and for them, is either a blessing or a curse. Since for many years, from those who get into the forest, some come back to town with a story about how this mysterious creature saved them from the freezing cold and guided them back home, they describe her as a young woman with the body of a snow leopard but her rough appearance hides a soft side for lost children who wandered too far into the snow-covered forest, she presents herself to them slowly with a calm voice and a soft gaze as not too scared them and then guides them back home while she keeps them safe from the dangers hidden under the snow-white blanket. But for others who go into the forest to cover their hands with the blood of innocent creatures, she becomes a curse, a curse that comes silently from the deepest parts of the forest, where she leaves behind her soft and caring side to confront those who enter her forest to kill. Her soft blue eyes become ice cold in the presence of those who dared to spill innocent blood on the white forest floors, for most hunters the icy stare alone is enough to send them back but other, well some get back home badly injured and others… have yet to be found.

behold my mess of a story…
