One month ago, I was invited whit s lot of other artists fror making a big art collab in honor to Scott Cawthon and the seventh anniversary of the Five nights at Freddy's franchise. Today, the collab was finished and is out now! I am really proud and glad to have been part of something so important to the FnaF community, and I hope you like it too!
ABOUT MY CHARACTER IN THE COLLAB
For the colllab, I drew Coffee, an old character of The Desolate Hope (An old Scott game) that also appears in FNAF WORLD.
Coffee is a character that, Although he only had a small participation in WORLD and it may seem quite irrelevant, it is part of Scott's history as a game developer, and to having to do a drawing of Coffee for Scott to see it later is something that I am honored with. I was very fortunate to be able to do a character that really means a lot to Scott, and I hope he is proud of my work and of the almost 200 talented artists who also worked on this.
MY PART FOR THE COLLAB AND THE PROCESS BEHIND IT
My part you actually have already seen it surely, I post it here and in My Twitter. But the process behind it is something I wanted to share whit you for knowing how it was made!
First of all, I made enough sketches of Coffe to correctly adapt it to my style, I had never drawn it before so I spent a few days on that.
After I understood how to make Coffee work in my artstyle, I proceeded to make the sketch that I would use in the final work. I tried various poses, but decided on which one to use in the final drawing (I also had some Twitch Streams as background noise to work with, it makes my work easier and more bearable)
And for the coloring, i actually First I went for a more icy pale with blue tones characteristic of metal, but as I progressed in the coloring, I changed the tones to warmer and yellow ones that became more subdued and added textures (In this image you can see in one of the six backups I was using as the Coffee glass was a blue hue, different from the yellowish hue used in the final drawing)
And finally, whit all the colors and the texrures done, I add the shadows and sumbit the png!
The background one was made after I finished the png, and for it i based in the backgrounds dor the Cinematics were you can see the characters in black baackground whit neon green squares.
