Battle of the Chairs Cover and Feature Illustration

Coming into working for Moment on publication deadline, the immediate challenge I faced was having to create an illustration for use on the cover and feature. Although the editor had given basic direction, there was the concern of the amount of copy and its placement. Thankfully, digital painting allows easy solutions to this, and here, base art was created in Painter, exported as layers to Photoshop for compositioning, so that it could be manipulated at will, depending upon the editorial demands. In addition, this arrangement allowed easy creation of stand-alone graphical elements that could be used as necessary throughout the feature design.
