Step by step flying vehicle

Hi, just thought I'd share some process with you!

This was my first painting for 2013.

The resolution for this painting was 8000px by 6558px (because I had printing in mind) and it was completed in about 4-5 hours.


Thumbnail, this originally started out with me looking and trying to figure out
the suspensions on formula 1 cars.

Rough blockin of concept



Added a dark background and blocked in the base values.

Added a gradient and lightsource across the whole image set to linear dodge.

Secondary light(s), engines and bounce light blocked in.

Painted the engines and added a bit of warm color to the palette.

Decided to change the concept into an illustration of something moving. Was playing with the idea of having it stand still on some sort of platform earlier on.

Paint paint paint.. Used a light gradient from below to take out some of the more harsh darks.

Finish detailing and concept and added a wing on the back to try to balance it up a bit.

Finish! Moving stuff and particles were added to create the feel of speed. I also used the CS6 mixer brush for the looser edges.
