Ghost Ship....
Sticking to my pirate theme for a bit. Thought I'd try a ship this time. Full breakdown and full image below.... Ahoy!
Well, been a little bit since I've done some art, so I thought I aught to start. As always, I begin with a render from DAZ Studio of a pirate ship model I really like. called Medusa. I then added a ghost ship skin, but I probably could have gone without.
Once done, I go into my image editor to paint. I found a nice sunset image on Pixabay and got some colour codes. Gotta have the right colours after all, lol. I then set to painting with photoshop brushes, using mostly ash and smoke, along with a little water. There was a lot of stop, start, erase, good, not good moments in constructing. If I showed all the errors and happy accidents, this post would takes days to see. All I can say is,... play with what you got till it works. Here is a Gif to help show the process...
Here is the full image:
Thanks for looking, hope you like it. Have a great day!

Me encanta el tema que escogiste para tu obra, me recuerda mucho la película los piratas del caribe, ya que su tema me identifica mucho con tu obra, los colores son impresionantes pareciera que la tormenta se acerca y hay que estar atentos, los colores que agregaste se nota mucha intensidad en cuanto al poder de los piratas, refleja fuerza, voluntad y ganas de batallar, superar las olas. Me gusta mucho, esta obra me ha parecido bastante genial. Gracias por compartir con nosotros parte de tu imaginación plasmada en una imagen. Te felicito por tu gran manejo en el arte digital.
Saludos.
Thanks! Really glad you liked the work. It was a lot of fun to make.
It looks amazing, something very cinematic, I don't know why it reminded me of "pirates of the Caribbean" :)) so cool!

Working on a few more pirates in future..... Guess I'll see where the winds take me.
I like very much! I am very intrigued, it has an atmosphere of mystery, I remembered the pirate you had done a while ago, it was surely her ship. It is a very rough sea.
Seeing how you create your pieces is great. <3

Hey, that's awesome! Glad you like the work! Been working on a pirate series, trying for 8 pieces in total, so you might see some more coming up. This one was a bit of a challenge with all the dark colours,... relieved it worked out. lol.
