Kamon looks so cool! I love the contrast between the green and red. It's a color combo that, admitedly, I'm not usually a fan of, but you make the colors work so well. I
love how you did the transparency of the water too. It looks really nice with the soft and subtle ripples against the more detailed wyvern and plants
I spent a long time in the conceptual part of his design working how to incorporate different aspects from his inspirations into the design, so it's validating to hear it pays off! I know what you mean about green and red- its used so often in Christmas stuff (and in so little else) that its hard to work the colors into a serious design. Special attention definitely has to be paid into the specific hues and value of the reds and greens for sure.
Oh man, the water was hands down the most difficult part of an already difficult piece! I had to find a whole new technique for it, and the tutorials I kept finding online wouldn't apply to how I had the character in the water... I'm still surprised that I worked it out as well as I did, haha.Thank you!
