Warriors Of Virtue: Chapter 02 Cover Art

April has been a messy month. I've been catching one thing after another. I think I left my home maybe 5 times all month! Most of the time I spent in bed, my brain too scrambled to do anything but watch TV. At least I caught up on the shows I missed while I was in Europe. 😊

The few days I did work, I've been working on Warriors of Virtue. 

This image is cover art for Chapter 2: Three Unsuspecting Teenagers. This is Sugarplum, asleep in the sowing basket as the maid lifts the lid. 

I've decided to paint all the chapter cover art digitally, to keep it consistent with the series cover art. This means I will have to repaint Cornelian walking to the Empyreal Castle. 

  

It it will be interesting to see how the digital painting differs from the acrylic.

But let me get back to the art in question...

I had quite a bit of trouble painting Sugarplum. I'm still not that experienced with digital tools, and sometimes the brushes and paint do not act as expected. I have painted this image twice as a result.

You can watch my progress from an idea sketch to the finished piece here.

Though I will continue to record my progress, this is the last video series that I will make available to the general public, because I do not wish to create spoilers for the fantasy. If you do not mind spoilers and would like to continue watching my progress as I learn to paint digitally, you can join Mili Fay Art Fan Club. From now on, any video I create will be mailed to that list. 

Thank you for reading and if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Cheers!
