"I Like it But Does it Come in Pink?": Monster Eggs
(Clip Studio Paint, Gouache Brush, Gouache Blender, a few Overlay Adjustment layers. 14 Colors. 45 minutes?) I cranked out 3 in a row today to make up for the fact that I kind of went on a Minecraft binge with my partner so I'm not sure of the times. You get 2 eggs today and one tomorrow while I figure out what I want to do for the final egg. Since I did them all back to back the time spent on each piece is a little wonky for me. I just kind of worked until I finished 3 eggs.
So, yeah, Monster Eggs are apparently just Halloween themed Tea Eggs. Still not sure if the pattern from the cracks looks properly realistic since a lot of my references were really lacey looking but I do like how the gradient looks better (to me) than the tea egg. Hence the title. Tea eggs are great but I very much like the red/pink monster egg in terms of aesthetic. Also I actually put some cast shadows in this one. Wild for me.
Hopefully @lady-quen's breadbugs like the look of these spooooooky eggs.
Hyping the Master @quezify with 2 pings today. We're almost there, man! I haven't been able to keep up reblogging all the eggs but I've seen them all and loved them all. That also goes for all the other artists participating in Eggtober. Super talented bunch and I've loved seeing everyone's work!
Speedpaint!
Can you tell that I really liked that red one and the way the food die leaked under the membrane and just went ham on that egg?
