This assignment was to find one factoid and create an illustration out of it. I chose that some lipstick (the shimmery kinds) were made of fish scales. Haha, I'm not sure how my mind decided to go down the route of creepy dead mermaids, buuuuut there you go.
Finding the color scheme of this wasn't that difficult this time around. I knew it had to have a sort of underwater tone, but I also wanted to create a mood that was pretty, but creepy. So I experimented with color. I find it kind of funny how the further I went with the color designs, the more detailed they got. I guess that makes sense when I got more cohesive ideas of where I wanted the go the more I worked on these thumbnails.
Anddd, the final piece:
As expected, this took a beast of a time to finish and all at the last moment, too, haha. Thank goodness it came out alright, though the dead mermaid makes me feel a bit awkward. I keep thinking the head's too small. Uggggggh. At least painting the hair was a blast. Hahahahaha.
