The Cutest Force User in the Galaxy: "The Child" Art Print

As artists and fans of "The Mandalorian," we were inspired to create our own digital artwork featuring The Child, also known as Grogu, after rewatching season one of the show (We’re not going to mention how many times we’ve rewatched it). The character has such an adorable and endearing quality that we knew we had to try our hand at depicting him in our own style.
We started the process by sketching out a rough version of The Child to get familiar with the character and proportions we wanted to use.  
Once we felt good about the little guy, we placed him in his hover pram.  We wanted to capture his cute and adorable appearance, as well as the futuristic design of the hover pram. From there, we began to add more details to the sketch, refining the lines and shapes to create a more polished image.
Next, we moved on to cleaning up the sketch, only keeping the lines we liked and omitting the rest.
Then, we carefully painted in the various elements of the artwork, paying close attention to the details and color combinations. We wanted to create a cartoony, yet lifelike depiction of The Child, so we took care to make sure his skin looked soft and realistic and his eyes sparkled with life.
Finally, we added the finishing touches to the artwork, such as the shadows and any additional details. Once we were satisfied with the final result, we posted on all our Socials.

Overall, creating “The Child” in his hover pram was a fun and rewarding process. As fans of "The Mandalorian," it was exciting to bring our own interpretation of the beloved character to life, and we hope that others will enjoy it as much as we do. If you are a fan of "The Mandalorian" or just love cute and adorable characters, we highly recommend checking out this digital artwork. It's sure to bring a smile to your face!

Bad Dragon: Behind the scenes of our digital watercolor masterpiece from House of the Dragon

​Welcome back to our Jungle Blog! Today we'll be sharing the process of creating our digital watercolor piece depicting a scene from season 1 of HBO's House of the Dragon. The scene we've chosen is the moment after a wild chase of Lucerys Velaryon and his dragon, Arrax, where Vhagar unexpectedly gobbles them up leaving Aemond in shock. Although Aemond is in disbelief, Vhagar is quite pleased. We captioned the piece "Bad Dragon" as it reflects the unexpected and brutal act of Vhagar.
Picture
​The first step in creating this piece was finding the perfect pose and proportions for Vhagar & Aemond. We spent some time studying reference images of the actor and dragon from the show, as well as researching historical depictions of dragons, while still designing it in our unique Jungle Boy style. 
The next step in the process of creating this piece,  cleaning up the lines to make sure the details were correct.  During this step, we decided to change Aemond's expression and add a little piece of Arrax's remains to further enhance the fierce satisfaction on Vhagar's eyes.
​Then we moved on to the final step of adding color to the piece. For this, we decided to use a digital watercolor technique to give the image a sense of movement and dynamism. We used a combination of brushes and blending modes to create the effect of watercolor blending and create a more organic look. We added highlights and shadows to create depth and dimensionality, and also added some fire effect to give more dramatic look to the scene.
​Finally, we made some final adjustments and tweaks to the composition and overall look of the piece. We were very happy with the final result and we hope you will enjoy our artwork as well. We hope this blog post provides some insight into the creative process of creating digital watercolor art in Photoshop, and that it will inspire you to appreciate the beauty of this medium.

The Power of Dragons: Our Inspiration for our Epic Watercolor from House of the Dragon

​Welcome back to the Jungle Blog! As fans of House of the Dragon, we were struck by the powerful and evocative quote from Daemon Targaryen, "Dreams didn't make us kings, Dragon did". The quote resonated with us and we knew we wanted to create a piece of art that would capture the spirit of this sentiment.


Picture
We decided to depict Daemon, in full battle armor, riding Caraxes into battle. We wanted to capture the sense of power and charisma that Daemon exudes, as well as the fierce loyalty of Caraxes. Conveying that feeling of a rockstar riding a dragon into battle, with all the energy and excitement that this image evokes.
The process of creating this piece was a combination of experimentation, creativity and technical skills. We started by sketching the basic forms, trying out different poses and perspectives until we found the one that felt right. ​
Once we were happy with the rough sketch, we moved on to cleaning up the lines, making sure the Daemon armor details were accurate as well as identifiable details of Caraxes.   
The final step was adding color to the piece. We painted in the hill that Caraxes landed on, along with the fire filled sky to hint at a battleground they just burned through. Moved on to the character colors making sure to give both Daemon and Caraxes a base of blood red to really bind them together. We added highlights and shadows to create depth and dimensionality to give more dramatic look to the scene.
Picture
Finally, we made some final adjustments and tweaks to the composition and overall look of the piece. We were very happy with the final result and we hope you will enjoy our artwork as well. We titled the piece "Dragons King" as it reflects the quote that inspired us.

We hope this blog post provides a glimpse into the creative process of creating digital watercolor art in Photoshop, and that it will inspire you to appreciate the beauty of this medium.

The Making of 'Not Without My Dragon': A Look at the Process Behind Rhaenys Targaryen and Meleys's Escape

Fans of the hit HBO series House of the Dragon are in for a treat as we take a behind-the-scenes look at the digital process behind this stunning artwork of Rhaenys Targaryen and her dragon Meleys daring escape from King's Landing.

The artwork, entitled "Not Without My Dragon," depicts Rhaenys refusing to flee the city as the Greens take control, instead choosing to rescue Meleys and escape on the back of her dragon. The artwork captures the fierce determination of Rhaenys and the bond she shares with her dragon, making it the perfect addition to any House of the Dragon fan's collection.
Picture
The digital process of creating this artwork began with an initial sketch. We first drew out the basic composition and placement of Rhaenys and Meleys, along with the major elements of the scene such as the cloudy sky in the background and Meleys shooting a fireball.  Capturing Meleys' head too us several passes to get to something we were happy with, getting a simplified version of those horns while still keeping it cute.
​Next, the sketch was refined and cleaned up in order to create a clearer and more detailed drawing. We carefully adjusted the proportions and added more details to the characters and the environment.
​After the clean drawing was completed, the final step was to add color and texture to the image. Using digital watercolor techniques, we were able to bring the artwork to life with rich and vibrant colors, making the scene feel more realistic and immersive.

​We hope this glimpse into the digital process behind "Not Without My Dragon" has been informative and inspiring for art lovers and House of the Dragon fans alike. Make sure to search for House of the Dragon, Rhaenys Targaryen, Meleys, Digital Art, and Watercolor to find more content like this.

From Sketch to Watercolor: How We Created 'Rather Be With My Dragon'

Hey everyone!
We wanted to share with you the creation process of our latest artwork: a watercolor print featuring Rhaenyra and her dragon Syrax from House of the Dragon. If you're a fan of the show, you know that Rhaenyra has a deep bond with her dragon, and we really wanted to capture that in our artwork.
Picture
It all started with a rough sketch. We usually start in Photoshop with a pencil and sketch out the basic composition and details of the piece. For this one, we focused on the embrace between Rhaenyra and Syrax and the caption "Rather be with My Dragon" as a fun twist. We wanted to convey the love and affection between the two characters, and we felt like this pose and caption captured that perfectly. Then we added the heart to help frame both characters together.
Once we were happy with the sketch, it was time to tighten up the linework a bit and get some of the character details in.  We chose Rhaenyra’s costume from the episode when her Father announces her as his heir to the Iron Throne.  We felt like it was the most iconic and recognizable from Season 1.  Also took some time to research Syrax, taking cues from the book and the show.  At this point, we came up with the idea of turning the heart into an “Iron Heart” to once again tie into the House of the Dragon themes.  Figuring out the swords was tedious, but we felt it would give this piece a nice touch.
Happy with what we had up to this point, the next phase was to go ahead and clean up all the line work.  We thought about keeping the lines a little sketchy, but decided against it for this piece.
Once the line work was complete, we were finally able to move on to the digital watercolor phase. We love using watercolor brushes in photoshop because they have a soft and dreamy quality that we think works really well with fantasy and whimsical subjects like dragons. We started by laying down the base colors and gradually building up the layers and details. This is our favorite part of the process because we get to see the artwork come to life and start to look like a finished piece
After the watercolor phase was complete, it was time to add the final touches and details, like the outline around the characters, a light wash for the background and finally the caption.
And that's it! From rough sketch to final digital watercolor painting, it was a fun and enjoyable process to create this artwork. We hope you guys love it as much as we do, and that it brings a little bit of whimsy and magic to your space.

Watching the Original Trilogy for the thousandth time, it got us thinking, why can’t these Stormtroopers hit anything?  They have these helmets probably with some kind of HUD display inside, some awesome blasters equipped with sites and scopes.  So it got us thinking, maybe they just don’t have a clue, hench the title of this piece.  This print features Stormy, a we like to call him, who seems a little confused (we've all been there, right?).

Bringing 'Baba Yaga' to Life: A John Wick 4 Fan Art Process

As fans of the John Wick series, we were eagerly anticipating the release of John Wick 4. When the trailer dropped, we were even more excited to see what kind of trouble Keanu Reeves' character would get into this time. As artists, we couldn't resist the urge to create some fan art to celebrate the upcoming movie.
​
The idea for our 'Baba Yaga' fan art came to us almost immediately after seeing the trailer. We were inspired by the mythological figure of Baba Yaga, a witch-like character in Slavic folklore, and thought it would be the perfect fit for the intense and action-packed world of John Wick.



Picture
We started the process by brainstorming and sketching out different poses and compositions for "Baba Yaga". We played around with a few different ideas before settling on the final sketch, which depicted John Wick holding a gun and sword as he faced off against his enemies.
Picture
Next, we moved on to the tight rough stage, where we added more detail and refined the lines. This was a time-consuming process, but it was also one of the most rewarding as we saw the piece start to take shape.  Constant tweaking a revising of proportions and shapes till we were finally satisfied.
After the tight rough was complete, we cleaned up the lines and added the finer details to bring the piece together. Zeroing in on the gun, katana and especially the face.  We also added tone and lighting for some dramatic effects.  This was the stage where everything really started to come together and we could see the final product taking shape.
Finally, it was time for the fun part: adding color! We decided to use a black, white, and red color palette for our 'Baba Yaga' fan art, as we felt that it would best capture the intensity and drama of the John Wick series. The red added a pop of color and heightened the sense of danger, while the black and white gave the piece a sleek and professional look.
Picture
As we worked on adding the final touches to the piece, the text and caption, we couldn't help but get excited for the release of John Wick 4. Keanu Reeves is such a talented actor, and we can't wait to see him back in action as the legendary hitman!  Kudos to the creator, Derek Kolstad and Director Chad Stahelski, for creating such a rich and exciting world that sparks so much inspiration to draw from.
Picture
And there you have it! The process of creating my John Wick 4 fan art from start to finish. I hope you enjoyed seeing the behind-the-scenes of my art-making process. Are you a fan of the John Wick movies? Let me know in the comments!
