GWAAAH!

This is another painting that comes from my nightly samurai sketch sessions. This little tribe is about to be caught unawares by whatever it is that Gwaah here is pointing at. Just think of the horrors that could lurk in this unknown and alien wilderness. Monsters of unimaginable terror and power. Now that your thinking in the right direction I just want to have a small child with a lollipop far off in the distance, or a fuzzy bunny.

Speaking of bunnies, the time I spent as a medical illustrator taught me one very important lesson, bunny skulls are monstrous. Just one big set of jaws made for slicing things with those immense incisors. Truly terrifying.

But I digress. This image was created first in a sketchbook then scanned and painted in Adobe Photoshop with my Wacom Intous4. I tried to give it a little depth of field to put more emphasis on Gwaah. It is a painting that because it comes from a sketch and was not formally composed, I spent some time fighting. Because of this I learned a very valuable lesson regarding my process. Sketch -> thumbnail -> refined drawing -> painting.
