Description
Acrylic 30x18"/ 76x46cm
This is a box cover illustration for the currently being kickstarted Cthulhu Wars Onslaught 2 game expansion by Petersen Games. It depicts the Great Library at Celaeno, one of August Derleth's contributions to the Cthulhu Mythos. In a nutshell, it is a vast alien library located near a star named Celaeno. More at wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Books_in…
As there is limited information and description of the place, this is one of those instances where I was allowed to run more freely with my imagination. A little while back, a fellow DA watcher pointed out that I gravitated toward certain palettes. A quick look at my gallery will quickly reveal my fondness of pthalo blue, I cannot deny! So, I inverted some of my images in photoshop to see what my compliment/negative palette and decided to use this 'alien' color scheme to depict this alien library.
I've created a video slideshow containing sketches and the painting in progress: youtu.be/nmPwRjf1jcE
