How do you go about creating a piece of artwork ? Can you share with us your creating process?

It’s very usual way of painting. I start with simple sketch, just to show the idea, then I add some color pallete to catch the proper mood for the illustration, then there’s defining stage and final polishing. You can check this video ( Here ) I made it to show my usual steps.

Your artworks are full of details. How much time do you usually spend for creating a piece of artwork ?

It’s hard to say exactly, every image is different and every day isn’t the same 😉 But it takes me 1 week (more or less) to finish whole illustration.

How did you get into illustration ? Did someone inspire you to become an illustrator?

I draw since I remember, at the beginning it was just for fun, but somewhere around my 13-14th birthday I was really inspired by the old masters and I was really interested in “art”. But I really started to draw when I was 20-21, I knew what I wanted to achieve, I knew I wanted to be better and better.

Where do you ideas stem from ? Are there any artists that you look up to ?

Ideas comes from movies/games/music. I’m always impressed by new artworks from other artists, I always spent few minutes at least looking at the picture analyzing it 😉

Which of your artwork are you most fond of ? Why ?

I don’t have one 🙂 I don’t really like my artworks. There are some moments when I think I like it but after month or two I’m seeing lots of things I could do better.

Your ‘Battlefield’ artwork is amazing. How did you come up with this piece ? Also, can you share with us the creating process behind it?

Thank You! I was listening Skyrim soundtrack and there was this song “Blood and Steel”, this piece really inspired me and I decided to draw something that fits this athmospere. Unfortunately I don’t have any process video or steps ;/

What is the best thing about illustration and concept art?

I guess art. I know it sounds pretty obvious, but it’s the key of everything You make. You can create some picture but without art it will be harsh and indifferent.
