Fire Wolf Background from me to HoloZing

Good and happy day to all the Hivers who are part of this beautiful community. First of all I want to wish you all a Merry Christmas, and a beautiful day.

I recently started to be part of the HoloZing Community, just yesterday I had the opportunity to publish my first time on HoloZing. Today I have decided to dedicate this post to Holozing Creature Background Contest. It will be a pleasure for me to be able to express my art through this contest and to be able to contribute to the advancement of this game that I am so eager to play. I am very excited to be able to enter the world of HoloZing and be able to enjoy battles between different creatures.
The objective of this contest is to create a background for the creatures that @acidyo and his team gave us, based on their creativity, decided to create my background design for the fire wolf, taking into account that this is my favorite character. I am a great lover of dogs and what are these if not the evolution and domestication of the wolf. Here I will leave you each step and how I developed it for this background design and I hope you really enjoy what this newbie in painting and design wants to offer you.

I started by opening one of my favorite applications for design, Paint 3D. Here I was able to change the dimensions of the page to begin fulfilling one of the objectives of this contest, the photo in the form of a portrait. I used the dimensions 1080x1350 pixels. Truly, the program does not have these dimensions predetermined, so I had to investigate which ones were indicated for this post.


Later I chose the background color that I would use to give life to the fire wolf and I thought the wine red was great. I used the brushes tool and inside I chose fill to give color to the entire page.

Then I thought about a catastrophic night, with volcanic eruptions, inspired by some of the designs that I could see in the community, the idea seemed very good to me. I started by adding lava to the bottom of the photo, using the spray tool and some pencil details, with colors that I customized using orange and yellow to brighten the lava.

I added my first mountain in the distance using gray spray and some stitching of the same color that I customized for the background and inside I made some outlines with pencil and with a sharp outline so that you could see the mountains in the distance. I also decided to add a little more lava to express where so much catastrophe comes from, well yes, from the volcano that you can see on the right of the image.

At this point the image still did not convince me, I don't know about you, but it showed me absolutely nothing of what I had in mind, it was then where I decided to use the 3D shapes tool to represent a moon that would give life to the night and make some details both in it and in the mountains that could define a little more what I wanted to express. For these details I used the pencil tool with a custom blue color, since the default blue didn't really allow me to do it from the darkness of the image I wanted to design. Here I show you the mountains in a little more detail and what the moon looked like on this catastrophic night.

That's when I said, tonight is missing something, of course, stars, and well, I drew some using pointillism with the blue pencil. It was actually something funny, because I drew the star like a three-year-old child, I thought it was very cute hahaha. Here I show you then my background without a creature and how it looked after I introduced the png of the creature that I downloaded here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1K1yu4wHLSLX8Qwp1pza-QxqFkEKG-VcE

Thank you all very much for entering and reading, any questions you have about the process do not hesitate to comment and I will be happy to answer. I hope I have contributed to the advancement of @holozing with this small contribution, I think we are all crazy to be able to play with these beautiful creatures that remind us so much of the old Pokémon. Merry Christmas to all.
