Poison dart frogs WIP
Added 2019-04-11 15:19:58 +0000 UTCThere is something very interesting about poison dart frogs.
They carry tadpoles on their backs.
I've seen a documentary about this before.
Youtube link (Strawberry Poison Dart Frog | National Geographic. It's short and cute film)
WIP
I made color thumbnail before I paint..
It is very helpful when use many color :)
I wouldn't be able to paint quickly without the color thumbnail.
Design tip
I have a kind of flat art style.
I minimize the use of dark and shadow.
Instead, I use color to express the boundaries of things.
In the first sketch, the frog's feet feel like as thin as the fish fins.
I used a line to express the thickness.
Thank you for reading :D
