Artastic

 I needed to create three landscape paintings where my Sherlock Hounds character will have his adventures. Completing these paintings involved a lot of learning, because I am still new to digital painting. They were fun to create, especially adding the atmospheric touches. Only the first painting is in colour. I want to add colour to the other paintings when I have the time. I would also like to add more finishing touches.

 The only requirement for our background painting assignment was that it must be a farm. I decided to put mine on an alien planet.  It was a fun challenge to figure out the lighting on a planet that would have a different atmosphere. It is also emerging from an eclipse. The landscape behind the cliffs has already emerged from the eclipse, allowing me to put some nice rim lighting on the background cliffs. I would like to revisit this landscape later and do it with lighting at a different time of day.
