Retribution
Another Caldyra story panel finished :)
I didn't want to search images on how it looks like when someone is chocking, but I do know about the basic details like the reddening int he eyes, the puffiness of the eyelids, the blue lips and nose and struggle of the victim.
Don't feel bad of this man though, he deserves it! I've ticked on the "mature content" box, just to be sure.
The initial idea I went for.
Clean lines. But I found the empty space rather redundant and the boobies (sorry) an unnecessary distraction from the narrative.
The cropped version and initial lighting setup.
Base warm and cold gradients in the two primary tonal groups.
Base rendering.
Finished piece.
Tutorial of how I work. Check my gallery to find these precursor images of the story.
