Description Last month’s work. Tried my hand at some speed-painting. I figured I could finish in about 2-3 hours, and instead 10 hours got magically sucked off one Monday I blame it on the painful making and highlighting of those overlapping bodies.

Reference-free, effect-free, and filter-free as always.

Hope you guys like.

The fact that this was reference free makes it ten times cooler! Those wings have an awesome shape to them!

This... is what I strive to learn to create. Art and ideas like this, regardless of being generic or not, are the best expressions I've ever known, as words never do justice all the way.

I have a question, is there a tutorial for painting wings you can direct me to or can you help understand how your wings are painted so perfectly...

Errr... tutorials on wings eh? Sorry, don't know any, and I didn't use any specific technique for this one either. In my case I just studied a lot of references, especially old impressionist paintings. That helped a great deal

It's creepy in a way but then again - plain lovely.
I like the coloring and the bodies. Some look like they are sleeping - others very dead. For me it creates an interesting effect.

Thanks for sharing.

It's more like of getting to the top of the foodchain by stepping on others. Not a very good morale in all, just felt like illustrating the uncanny inclination in modern society.

Glad you like it, thanks! :>
