Description A Book Cover for Eleonora Ratkevich "Tae Ekkeir" published by "Eksmo"
You may ask: what a strange composition !? .... but this illustration was done for a double page spread.... so the main characters had to be the right part of it.....
hope you like it guys !

Such a great image for the eye to wander round. The men look so lifelike and the scenery is just awe inspiring. It's a beautiful image that really sparks the imagination!

Am I right to assume this is for a dust cover. Maybe print will be placed on the left.

This part matte painting or did you really paint that little castle in the distance? Looks like a photo - so do the mountains in the background with some texture thrown over. Just wondering, if you did, I really don't care at all... just asking.

I had only 3-4 days for this illustration(from sketch to the final) so I had to use some mattepainting technique... mountains in the background are from the photo but changed rather heavily... also I used a reference for the castle but painted it in photoshop ..... all other things( rocks ,characters, road from the castle, town near the castle... etc) are painted entirely in photoshop without references and photos....
thanks for your attention 8)

that's completely awesome, I was just wondering because photo-light looks particular, and most painters don't paint like it... it's exceptionally hard to reproduce, that's why matte painters like Dusso, etc just use photos and blend them in.

It's an art for sure, I just wanted to see if my "eye" for it was correct!

When I'm finished editing my book and have secured an editor/publisher/agent, I'll pretend like I have enough money to buy a commission from you and ask after prices and stuff until I've been thoroughly beaten down by the bludgeon of my collegiate poorness.
