Stained Glass Illustration

Continuing to work on a album cover. It is an illustration that is inspired by the Holy Trinity theme and used a stained glass design. Please let me know what you think.

@Durrell-Odom It definitely works - the religious connection is very strong and it looks really like stained glass. It is a very suggestive piece, with a strong design.Coloring is going to bring out the stained glass feeling even more: looking forward to seeing it!

@smceccarelli Thanks. I won't go straight into color with this one, I'll work on the tone first. I definitely aiming for bright colors but with color harmony rather than just big spots of bright colors.

Here is the Lamb of God detail so far. Just focusing on lighting and tone.

looking super beautiful if I say so myself! Honestly I would opt out on the gradients you have on the flags, the work you have already is extremely nice and the tones with your hand painting is working really well. Everything looks authentic and then you have very synthetic looking gradients on the banner/flags that just scream photoshop. Maybe this is the look you wanted or its just not finished, just thought I would leave a comment.

Regardless, I love this a lot. Please keep updating!

This is turning out really nice, who is the person in the middle?

Durrell Odom · 2 Jun 2016, 15:48

@Jack-B thanks. I will experiment with a different way of shading the flag. I just ran out of time for the day.
