Environment artwork

So yesterday i focused on making an environment piece for the Dwarven town of Gromak Thor. I drew inspiration from my previous sketches and a real image of a mountain that would fit the concept i have.


















These are the two images i used as reference yesterday. The top image just looked perfect setting that i was after. The harsh looking mountain with a near enough vertical drop ideal for fitting the town into. The sketches i have drawn on the right were early sketches i made to simply get a rough idea of the concept out. Using these as references really helped me create a piece of art that i am happy with. I normally despise my artwork yet i really enjoyed this piece and working from the top image as a main reference really helped with designing it.


This is just the start of my environment piece. As i have said in earlier posts i plan to import this image into Photoshop and add color and build the piece of artwork up through layers. However without my tablet this process will have to wait. Though not up to industry standards of drawing, the concept like this branched off new ideas about how this town should look. I plan to make three more drawings like this taking inspiration from different mountains o create a different effect. Overall i am very happy with how the first environment sketch has gone. Once i have created the other three, i will choose one to develop even further.
