Splinterlands art contest | Time Mage
Hi guys, today I want to share my new entry to the @Splinterlands contest for which this time I chose the "Time Mage" card, this time I only wanted to draw torso so I had to think about what elements to add to make this card very striking and still keep the essence of the original card, this time I wanted to help me a little with AI, so I made the clock with the help of playground but I modified it when I placed it to give the final touches I wanted, I wanted a floating clock that was breaking, as if the time was stopping for an instant, a "Time mage" with a fine and delicate face, with closed eyes perceiving how her clock breaks into a thousand pieces, I worked with a background that I made with the help of a diffuse brush, simulating a kind of bright space, it cost me a lot to make all the elements that I had in mind this time, but here is the result, I hope you like it.
I thought a lot about how to make this card, in fact I wanted to paint it a long time ago, but it really has so many elements that it seemed impossible, however I came up with this idea and I put it in my sketch, then I started painting with a palette of pinks and purples, then I applied a new layer where I added more colors and also painted the hair with a dark and desaturated purple, then I started to mix the skin tones to give it a more realistic finish, I finished giving details to the face, painting the eyebrows and eyelashes.
I started to fill the clothes with the colors similar to those of the original card, but with the difference that they are a little more desaturated, then little by little I added the textures of each part of the clothes and the golden details, I also added the details to the hair as lights and shadows, to give movement and shape to the hairstyle, I changed the background to a dark color and by this point I started to make the clock with the help of AI in Playground it was very hard to get a good result, I was really blocked with the phrases that I had to use, finally I chose one of the options that I liked the most and I cut and pasted it over the drawing, I made some adjustments with the "transform" tool to give it a better angle, I used the selection tool and made small selections and eliminated part of the shape of the clock to give this effect that it is breaking, I started to draw small particles that simulate the pieces of the clock floating, I also painted the needle of the clock in a golden color, and painted over some parts of the clock that I didn't like how it looked like.
I used some blue and yellow colors to create this background, I made the shapes that simulate an aurora borealis and then painted some small yellow stars, applied more particles coming out of the clock, then I added some light details in the face and in some parts of the background, finally I edited the drawing giving it a little more saturation and depth.

Wow! Esto se quedo fantastico! Me encanta como haces tu arte con programas digitales, pero se parecen como arte que hiciste con pintura en un lienzo. Este grite la palabra "increible" @alexa.art. Te espero un buen dia! 🎉😀
