Hello dear community, this week I wanted to participate in @Splinterlands art contest with two cards that I really liked, the idea of put these two cards together seemed attractive to me since one card is of fire element and the other is water, this would make quite a contrast Interesting between these two elements, using two colors that are quite strong and at the same time so different, it was quite a difficult job to finish, but I tried to do the best I could.
This is how Iidri Fyre and Water caller came together in an image being opposite poles that try to have contact and that in turn the elements that stand out the most from them are accompanying them in the background, I hope you like it.
I made the sketch making the shape of two girls who touch their hands, trying to make a suit similar to the one they wear in the cards, and I began to place the two tones with which I would work to better guide myself as it would be when painting, I chose paint Iidri first using orange tones for the skin and yellow for the eyes, I started working little by little on the skin until I got a skin with a smooth texture, now it was Water caller's turn, for her I used a palette of cold tones using between them , blue, lilac and purple.
I worked a lot more on the skin of water caller to give it a soft texture, I also gave more details in the eyes, nose and lips, continue with Iidri adding more depth to the eye with makeup and making these white stripes that she has on her face and arms, once ready, I began to paint Water caller's clothes, using base tones similar to the tones of the clothes in the original card, also with Iidri, little by little I began to give volume to Water caller's wardrobe.
Paint the details of the clothes of both girls, and then begin to shape the hair, using some shadows and lights of the tones similar to those that I placed as a base, add more color to the background using blue and orange tones and blending them in the center , on the Iidri side make fire and on the water caller side water, add a new layer on top of the whole drawing creating these little dots of water and some small floating fire flames.
Now I started to add some highlights to give more life to the drawing, finally I applied a small saturation and contrast adjustment to the drawing.
