#94 Zodiac Signs

[BiG ToE-3DT]

Speed Painting Challenge no. 94

Topic: Zodiac Signs

Idea: There are 12 Zodiac Signs; each represents a creature of some sort. Here is what I need from you. Take one of the 12 Zodiac Sign’s creatures and show me what they look like. The idea is super easy, but the end result could be a little tricky. You can play with your own sign, or pick the one the best fits you. You might want to do a little research before jumping into this one. Every sign represents a mood or personality, so try and show that in your art.

Deadline: 11:59 pm (GMT) Sunday June 14th (use the time zone thread to make sure your done in time)

Rules:

- Any medium is allowed, as long as it can be put into digital form - scanned, photographed, etc.

- Since it's a speed painting, it should be finished in the smallest amount of time possible, but if you paint a whole day, you won't get disqualified. But for example, 4 days is too much

- IF YOU PAINT MULTIPLE ENTRIES, YOU NEED TO STATE BEFORE THE DEADLINE WHICH ONE YOU LIKE THE BEST. IF NOT – I’LL DO IT FOR YOU
- References can be used - 3D or photograph, BUT you can't paint over them. It has to be your own painting.

Custom brushes can be used, but to some extent - they can't be pre-made parts of the future painting, like a whole tree, brush, cloud, an explosion, lighting... you get the point. They can be - a couple of leaves, a couple of grass blades

Post your final images in this thread.

[Tom Rubick]

Software: Corel Painter
Time: 3.5 hrs

I am a Taurus, so no prizes for guessing which creature I painted. Not the most adventurous entry I know but I am just getting to grips with my tablet and painter so I kept it simple.

This is my first speed painting entry, but hopefully you will see some more of my work in the coming weeks.
