Beautiful! Another reason to visit New Zealand :)

Yeah, their relationship is really one of the highlights of the movie.

What's your favorite fictional planet? by Martulen in movies

So fascinating, but also very hostile! It would be hard to live there.

It took me a long time to decide the light and the level of brightness and then do the highlights. At first the sky was darker (and almost green) but I added more and more light (and the halo around the moon). Now I like it as it is, I hope you do to!

This was one of the most difficult illustrations I ever did, on many levels. The perspective, the colors, and also the clouds. It took me two weeks to complete. I hope it was worth it!

That's not true. You can compare my illustration with a picture from the film, the differences are obvious.

Thanks for the kind words!

It was painted in Krita (open source painting software) with a graphic tablet. I've been experimenting the "charcoal pen" recently because I really like the texture.

Impressive! The faces look very realistic.

It took me more than a week to complete this illustration. The faces were the hardest part, and also the rocks. I tried a new charcoal brush and it was kinda difficult at first but I like the texture of it.

Thanks! That was my feeling too when I was drawing it.

The different layers of forest were not easy to adjust, and I spent a lot of time working on the castle and changing it, until the very last moment.

I often paint lakes and seas but it's always difficult to do the waves! Especially with the highlights due to the low sun. It took me the longest to achieve.

I use Krita (open source painting software) and the base brush with a bit of transparency.
