Reaper Of Black Souls...

"Once the black spot is placed upon a pirate's soul, t'is the Reaper that comes to collect the toll."

Hi, all! Sticking with the pirate theme, I present the Reaper. A happy little accident with this one made him transparent.... I was going for the Zombie effect, but when I saw the ship through the character..... I liked it. I found some old models kicking around and decided to have some fun. I started by rendering the ship, then the zombie, after finding the right camera angles, poses, and pieces that made the character come to life. As always, I rendered the pieces in DAZ Studio, then exported the images to Pixelmator where I then played with Photoshop brushes, colour pallets, and generally built the image with layers. Full image below!

I started with this:

th2.jpg

I then began using my image editor. Here is a gif to show the breakdown a bit...

And here is the final image. Hope you like it.

Had a lot of fun making this one,... thanks for looking and have a great day!

If for some reason you cannot see the breakdown images, got to: Reaper Of Black Souls...

That is a good mistake. That effect seems a bit like that of a spirit, it seems that the owner of the ship came to claim what is his.
Great job and seeing the step by step makes it even more great.
I like this series is very mysterious.

Increíble dibujo y que buen juego de efectos realizaste, la idea que planteas es súper genial me gusta mucho cuando la imaginación va más allá de la realidad, cada elemento que escogiste está completo a la hora de montar la idea final. El color le da ese efecto terrorífico que causan los piratas, igualmente la forma de zombi es genial que la hayas mezclado y llegar al punto final que te gustó. Excelente puesta de elementos y narración, felicidades amigo.

Saludos, éxitos.
