Description Castiel from Supernatural.

Just finished watching Season 8 as of last night. So much feels, and looking forward to Season 9 starting soon.

This painting took quite a long time to complete, and I really wanted to try my best with this one, specially the background. The screencap that I referenced this came from Season 6.20 The man who would be king, where Castiel sits in the garden of heaven, which looked nice, but quite artificial... I wanted to make the surroundings look more natural, which I thought would carry the feelings a bit better.

Anyway.. trees were much harder than I thought without using the foliage brushes, but I'm quite proud of the painterly effect I got. For the grass though, I used a bit of texture overlay to make it look more interesting.

Available as a print here society6.com/YerinYoo/Prayer-Eā€¦
If you're in NZ and coming to Armageddon Auckland though, prints will be available much cheaper there.

The character Castiel is from Supernatural (c) Eric Kripke, Warner Bros. Television and the CW.

This looks simply amazing.
I love everything in here, especially the sunlight and the wonderful background.
Same goes for Castiel's expression.

Aww.. thank you for such kind words, and sorry about late reply.. had such a busy few weeks..

It did take many many hours.. specially drawing the trees and leaves, which is not my strong point.. I am glad of the results and that I persevered.

Thanks again.

slugette In reply to astarayel [2013-10-13 04:06:47 +0000 UTC]

I guess the trick is to choose the right screencap to reference.. and I actually spent a lot of hours doing the background this time.. Ā Ā  part of my regime to draw more "complete" pieces of art..

astarayel In reply to slugette [2013-10-13 23:55:31 +0000 UTC]

Haha, I'm a firm believer in the art of the great reference, too.


The background looks fantastic. I'm so impressed. I always want to do this, but then I get done and am just like "Slap a plain background on there and let's be DONE."

You did such an incredible job! I don't even know where to begin! I love everything about this! The lighting... How do you even...? The background is so detailed and beautifully done but doesn't distract from the foreground which is a real achievement in itself. You always manage to create such an intense atmosphere with your composition, choice of colors and the lighting. And now I could go on and on and on. :'D It's perfect!

Awww.. thank you so much for your beautiful comment.Ā  This is probably the most effort I've ever put into the background, and I'm beginning to learn more about atmosphere, lighting and such.Ā  Ā  I am trying to push myself to do more pieces with complete background.Ā  It is hard, and takes long time to do, but very rewarding at the end of it..
