Painting Bewitching Syndra - League of Legends Splash Art Halloween

- It's my second time to do something for the bewitching/Halloween skinline. Also, this splash is actually the first time I would do a solo female character splash for League so I was very excited!
Out of my 6 thumbnails I did, this was the hardest to do because of the top down shot. I knew this was gonna be a nightmare in terms of perspective so I decided to do more 3D this time. I recently discovered the fish eye effect so I put it to good use here. Some parts of the 3D
didn't fit my vision so I cheated it and distorted it to my own liking even if I broke the perspective.
Thanks to the 3D I as able to focus more on the character when rendering. I had a lot of trouble balancing the VFX of the pumpkins to make them read but not overpower the image at the same time but I think we managed in the end. :)

► A splash takes 4-5 weeks. 1st week for multiple sketches. 2nd week to figure out the colors. 3rd to 5th week to render and polish.
► I paint with the canvas size 8,000 x 4,500 px but it is shrunk down to 7,000 x 3938 for final.
► This video is 40x speed up. Do the math based on this video's time. Usually, the real time is around 40-80+ hours. (if the other thumbnails were added in). Actual work hours are more than 100+ hrs when you factor in the other thumbnails, research, and contemplating time.
► The toolbar at the left side is called Lazy Nezumi. It helps me get smoother lines and have perspective guides.
► To quickly color a grayscale, I use two methods.
GRAYSCALE COLORING 1ST METHOD:
• Layer on top: The grayscale set to multiply. Brighten it up and colorize depending on the mood you want. This Acts as an AO pass.
• Layer below: Use a solid brush to paint in the flat local colors.
GRAYSCALE COLORING 2ND METHOD: (Messier)
• Layer on top: Set this layer to softlight and add in your colors. This makes it a bit look dull on the highlights so you need to manually fix the highlight colors.
• Layer below: Grayscale here.
► Tip for revisions. You can use liquify on multiple layers. Right after you do it on one layer. You can press Alt+Ctrl+F to apply it again to a different layer. Make sure not to deselect your selection if you are doing this.
► I use color dodge and sometimes linear dodge blending mode to add in lighting layers.
► I group layers using this logic:
1. Post processing
2. VFX, magic
3. Character
4. Some fog
5. Background people, elements, etc
6. Sky and far background
► Here are my tools:
2008-2020:
• Wacom Intuos 3 6″x8″
• Samsung T190
• Intel Core i7 3.50GHz, 16GB RAM, Windows 7
• Photoshop CS6, DAZ 3D, Alchemy
2021:
• XP Pen Artist 24 PRO
• Dell UltraSharp
• AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core, 32 GB RAM, Windows 10
• Force Series Gen.4 PCIe MP600 500GB NVMe M.2 SSD (this is important for faster everything)
• Photoshop CC, Daz 3D, Zbrush, Maya
► To open a second window of your artwork in Photoshop it is located in Window - Arrange - New Window.
► To temporarily convert your artwork into grayscale. Go to View - Proof Setup - Custom - Select Dot Gain 20%. Then Press Ctrl + Y to toggle this view.
► I am not going to upload longer or shorter versions of this because that takes too much of my personal time. I'm already giving this away for FREE.
Built a whole a$$ town in 3D just for the background. I can't 🙀
the fact that i said "the final piece is amazing!" and then hovered to see the time stamp and we were not even halfway in 😂
This is amazing. The way the background was done was super amazing.
I bought one of your tutorials and learnt so much! I think you're doing God's work by sharing your tips and process here, you rock!
As a Syndra fan, you nailed it perfectly! Must be her best splash. It’s so colorful and fits the thematic so well. I also really like how mature her face looks!
Hi, I have a question, please answer me if you can. I do not understand how exactly you are doing splash-arts of skins. Another people make the skin and they send you pictures\arts (references) of skin and you draw it with more detalization, or you create the skin by yourself? Like this design of clothes, which colours of clothes and another things come from your head? Or not? I'll glad if you will answer me. Thanks for your videos!
So I also need to learn architecture before becoming a professional artist?
i know why those kids are so happy
this man is solocarrying all riot
May I ask what size canvas did you use for the final illustration?
Thank you so much for continuing with the videos. I live in Brazil and I’m from a humble family where I can’t pretty much afford a decent course for me to improve my digital art skills. Your videos are saving my life and I’ve improved SO MUCH that people around me are asking where am i leaning all that, and with huge pleasure i mention your channel. Keep blessing people, you are amazing!
Really love the little change to make the kids happy to see her, does a lot for the mood
