Description
Troll Mage
Acrylic, approx 7" x 10"
World of Warcraft trading card game illustration
©Blizzard Entertainment & Upper Deck.
Original artwork for sale; UK£200.
As the powerful magic builds, so too icicles begin to form, an indication of the destrucive freezing force about to be unleashed.
I wanted the Mage to satnd out clearly from the background, and for the magical effect to be clear. Firstly I employed a limited palette in the background, all shades of green. Within the value range stays in the middle, neither too white, nor too black.
Against the green backdrop the more intense, and contrasting, skin and robe colours stand out strongly. They also contain shades closest to black. This strong contrast then stands out against the background.
Lastly the only areas of white are the icy hands. Again this contrast helps to make them stand out.
