Some of you asked where I did get my ref. and I shared a link for the main ref. but I did a mistake, it's the same model, same photographer but different light setting. I bought 2 packs with the same model (and both are sublime, great pose, mood, etc.) but the correct ref. pack is this one: www.artstation.com/a/37509986 (same model, same photographer, but different light settings) 🥲🙏

Overlaying the chicken photos onto the painting is hilarious but also genius
Just now I realize what good color palette roasted chicken has, very reddish and earthy with nice dark colors...
The whole painting is gorgeous all around

[@Sebijy]

The chicken trick seems to be a big hit! 😄
Yeah, the colors in the photos added a really nice effect and also gave another "level" to the warm mood I wanted (+ the blue of the fire for the second one adds a nice effect that contrasts with the overall warm mood).

[@lilgal9346]

its nice to see you didnt edit out the reference. so many speedpaints where only the work area is visible and it feels like some people dont need reference anymore.. i really appreciate your art so this was really reassuring :)

[@Sebijy]

I feel the same way. When I began, I thought artists didn't use references and did everything from their imagination. I felt kind of low. And then I discovered that a lot of them just used...a second screen 🥲
But then I discovered Ahmed Aldoori's channel and for the first time a great artist putting his refs on the same screen, it was a revelation 🤯

As funny as it is, can you explain the reasoning with the chicken wings? Like why or how you integrated it into the painting?

[@Sebijy]

I like to use images to add interesting colors and color variations, create happy accidents, as well as textures and maybe shapes.
I don't usually care too much about the subject of the photo (as long as it has interesting values, colors and textures), but here I wanted something warm and "related" to the design of the character ("chimera" Falin) which reminded me of chicken ^^' (even if it's actually a dragon body)
