Proposel

I am going to create an image for the magazine Revolution art. It will be a portrait image 460 by 550 pixels and will have a DPI of 150, this is because the image will be printed out as well as printed on the web. The topic I’m working on is underwater and I have decided to do an image based on sea monsters and meteor showers. The colours I will be using are mostly dark blues and greens but for the sea and yellows and reds for the markings on the sea monster. My work is strongly influenced by deep sea fish that sometimes have florescent marking’s on their body, I am also influenced by the character designing work of Aaron Sims.

My final image should be a figure of a deep sea animal that has very human features as well as the florescent makings of deep sea fish. The light source will come from an underwater green aurora behind the figure which will leave the figure in silhouette with green highlights partially showing the figure. Dotted around the figures body will be yellow/orange florescent markings which will reveal more of the creature as well.

The creature will be vaguely human shaped but with long spindly arms and fingers which it will only have three of. Its back legs will be short and stumpy and look more like fins then legs, they sit in front of a long thick tail which ends a bit like a whales. The body will be a dull blue/grey colour except where the markings are and will be extremely skinny, showing the ribs and collar bones. The face will be basically human but with slanted black eyes and small ears that extend into a kind of antenna with markings on it. The hair will be lighter than the skin and quite dull. In the creatures right hand it will be holding a wooden spear.
