Ultima Manual Images – Ghost (Dag Yo!)

Reference: Ultima Ghost

Another of Denis Loubet’s illustrations, this time with a little interpretation of my own. (The arm movement, not the obvious textual addition)

Interestingly, after I finished drawing the ghost, I gave it a strong outline in preparation to fill the background entirely with black: Progress Shot. I actually liked how graphical and almost graffiti like it looked with this super hefty outline, however, I kept on and filled it in. About halfway through blacking the background, I decided I wanted to put in some lines, but not until after I’d filled in the bottom. Oh well. Plan ahead or carry around some white ink I suppose.

This one is fun for a few reasons.

First of all, it’s a request. A Zelda-crazed friend of mine requested “You should draw a redead, sitting alone in the dark.” I figured he’d be lonely. I imagine him as a tragic intellectual with a tremendous urge for companionship who just wants a playmate and a hug but the mask prevents that when he’s around people. *shrug*

Second of all, it’s one of the rare times, if not the first time, that I sketched in pencil before drawing over it in ink. I also did some warm up sketches to get ready.

It’s certainly one of the creepier things I’ve drawn in a while. Unfortunately, I don’t think it’s instantly recognizable, so I wouldn’t consider it to be a success.
