::Luna & Nova - on the road::
Actually one of the first concepts I did for L&N to see what kind of quick style I could go if I had to rush. So this is by no means finished bit rather a conceptual sketch inspired by Ian McQue‘s work - the flying ships and stuff
.
This piece was actually what got the Artist-Grant rolling, so everything that followed was because of this one piece, which is an insane journey so far! Thanks for your feedbacl too!
Enjoy spring if you can and stay safe!

::Luna - Dreaming::
Another painting done with the @xppen artist 22“.
Really like the natural feel. Ordered the 24“ pro right away to replace my 32“ wacom and enhance my new workplace
.
I like to explore different ideas to develope Luna, in this case I envision her to remember fragments of her former self.

::Garden of the Galaxy::
.
The title dtems from a misheard sentence and is intended
.
A New Luna & Nova piece appeared in the wild! This is actually an overpainted version of a 3D render + composing based on purchased Stockimages.
The 3D-design was made by me as part of the second artist-grant as also the 3D-print, which was my first time designing and printing a 25cm tall figure with 21 parts. The figure will most likely be available to download soon.
.
I learned so much by this project and am really thankful! Thanks go out to Stiftung Rheinland Pfalz für Kultur to make Luna & Nova a reality
.
Why has Luna a Nasa-Jacket and why can they breathe on the moon? This and more questions will hopefully be answered by you soon

::Luna Portrait study::
.
Finally got some time to do another portrait. This time inspired by @tombagshaw (obviously)
And no, she is not evil, quite the opposite but she may have a dark past that keeps her up at night, from time to time…;)
.
Trying to get the alla prima look working for me digitally.

I’m hosting a DTIYS challenge with my new Character(s) Luna & Nova! 
If you are an artist, read on, if not no problemtag an artist-friend who you think would like to join!

Here are the „rules“:
Redraw or paint this image in your own style. Look at my previous 2 posts to have different views of the OC‘s
Post my illustration as second slide in your post.
Tag me in your work or link me via @arsfantasio
Use the hashtag #Lunaandnova
Deadline is October 15th.
If you want to participate, please use instagram as I’m not very active over here. Original post is here: https://www.instagram.com/p/CFclz5zqOg1/

I know I have not participated in dtiys challenges, and do you know why?
Because I don’t have a style, I rather draw in someone else’s style, because I just have ideas and think about what would look best to nail that concept.
.
That is why I really believe this piece can easily look far better by someone who fosters a unique style.
