Hey can we talk about THIS OWL? Amazing work @WilHallett_art ❤️
I did a wee photobashing demo on stream tonight!
The brief for this was: "Show a perfectly ordinary house cat surrounded by the ghostly spiritual avatars of its past lives." My first approach was to do a slightly comedic take where they were all smooshed into a tiny room, forever watching this normal cat. I still love it.
True to my word, I'm going to paint the lovely @RahulKohli13 as a space marine. First up, a super loose doodle 🙏
Here's the sketch I did on stream! Lots of fun chatting through my thought process - will push him to final in a future stream ?
