Digital Painting Tutorial: Painting Monsters
Concept Art Genre: Sci-Fi Creatures
Subject: How to Paint Lifelike Monsters

Monsters are awesome - but why? What makes one monster design cool and another kind of meh...

Humans are hard-wired to recognize certain things about creatures and animals - is this thing a threat? Can it eat me? Should I run from it? As concept artists, we can learn how to use those built-in human reactions to design creatures that really get our viewer's attention.

In this 15 minute video I challenge you to practice blending realism with your artistic technique—to create a compelling monster. So grab your stylus and let's paint your world.

Key Take-Aways: How to create a lifelike monster by playing with Anatomy, Form and Skin to produce character, personality and energy.
