Visual Narration

Visual Narration

My start idea was to make my character/creature look fierce since it looks like a wingless dragon (a drake). I also wanted it to look like it had a purpose for it action instead of a mindless action. This was also one of my projects i wanted to color instead of leaving it black and white pencil sketching.

I came up with the idea of this creature by thinking of a different layout for a dragon head since most i draw are slim looking and i wanted this one to be a more bulky looking dragon. I also got the idea for this creature by a creature called a Deathclaw from Fallout 4. I started out with the head and continued downwards the body from shoulders to tail. I also gained ideas for a pouncing animation by looking for pictures of cats jumping, more specifically for the back legs portion.

 I used line for both the deer and the creature along with the grass. Since i had originally not planned to color it i had darkened the outlinings of the creature to emphasize him. Considering i hadn't drawn the deers hooves i decided to darken and add more variations of green to darken the portion by its feet. I also blended color in the deers fur to give it a variation of color so it looks more colorful than a bland looking brown and white deer. I also strived for movement in the creatures jump so it doesn't look as if hes floating in the air. Another thing i used was Proportion so it isnt a lopsided drake.

This was a creature i have been thinking of for a while and i imagined it being a ferocious demon. Since it has recently escaped captivity it still has its chain links around its arms and legs. It now has freedom to act like any normal beast. So the first priority any beast on this earth has, is to eat. It just so happens the deer is the first thing he sees.

If there was anything i could fix, it would probably be the scenery. The stone mountainous wall on the right could probably be edited. The scenery could probably edited to make a more sensible area than just a rock wall and suddenly a field of grass.
