"The Dragonslayer" Hi-Res Final and Process Guide (Patreon)

The final image is painted in Photoshop. In the Process Guide below you can see the top half is all transparent layers (Multiply, Color Dodge, Soft Light and Screen), while the bottom half of the guide you can see that I used primarily Normal layering. I also switch into using more mixer brushes in the last few shots to help build up some nice chunky brushwork and texture. 

I hope you like it. It was a ton of fun to work on. Special thanks to Annie for the great idea and art direction!
