Frog assignment

This weeks task was to design a frog character. I dont usually draw animals so this was quite different. I love asian culture so I decided to mix both together.

as always, moodboard:

I made quite few sketches that were horrible so I decided to delete them.

After a while of painting , this is my final painting:

I think I could make it way more froggy like. I was playing with depth of field and blurred out the parts that are further away. Its still very messy and sketchy but I kind of like the feel to it. I was more focused on the proportions and the whole feel to it, then go into details.

Instead of blurring everything I decided to go for a more painterly technique and more saturated colours and I'm pleased with the result. I used a simple texture on her dress and tried different lighting.
