More Photoshop painting fun. Inspired by the book The Art of Ray Harryhausen. I loved the way he assembled a scene in those old stop motion films. Layering live action, stop motion animation, models, and paintings into an exciting, cinematic composition. The critter in the foreground is based on an unfinished rough sketch of Ray's that is featured in the book.

I did a few rough sketches before staring to try and work out the colors and composition:
I took screenshots of my progress at certain intervals to show how the scene was built up. I started with a rough sketch (several actually) then I began to fill in large areas of color. Used Photoshop to paint in the details. Some of the more tedious plants originated in Illustrator and the plane was a 3D model I found online. I altered the texture map to look more painterly and rendered it in Cinema 4D. Brought that render into Photoshop and painted in extra details to match the scene:
And finally a few actual size closeups showing the painted details of the individual areas:
