keep an eye up...
That, or something like that, is how you could summarize my contribution to this week's Splinterlands Art Contest.
I like to focus on the eyes, the gaze and such eye-catching details. That's why I deliberately chose the characteristic eyes of the lovely and beautiful Lux Vega and the striking Commander Goff. Both have teamed up to spy on their opponents and rivals. Who do you think they are watching during training and battle preparations?
I created a fanart as a small artwork as usual, but also various “pictures in motion”. The way their eyes close a little and open wide in surprise, as a little sequence... It must be something really cool what they see, right?
Thanks again to the lovely @splinterlands team, thanks to the crew and curators for picking me as last week's winner. Now I'll share some insights into the creation process. I hope you like my idea and scenario of the fanart.
Halt mal ein Auge offen....
So oder in etwa könnte man meinen heutigen Beitrag an den dieswöchigen Splinterlands Art Contest kurz gesagt zusammenfassen.
Ich mag es ja das Augenmerk auf die Augen, den Blick und solch Blickfangende Details zu legen. Daher habe ich bewusst heute die charakteristischen Augen von der werten und wunderschönen Lux Vega und dem markanten Commander Goff gewählt. Beide haben sich zusammengetan, um ihre Gegner und Konkurrenten auszuspionieren. Wem schauen sie wohl beim Training und den Battle Vorbereitungen zu?
Ich habe eine Fanart als kleines Kunstwerk wie immer kreiert, aber auch verschiedene "Bilder in Bewegungen". Wie sich auch die Augen der beiden etwas schließen und vor Überraschungen weit öffnen, als kleine Sequence... Muss ja etwas krasses sein, was die beiden erblicken oder?
Danke nochmal an das werte @splinterlands team, Dank an die Crew und Curators, mich als Gewinnerin der letzten Woche zu küren. Nun lasse ich die Einblicke in den Entstehungsprozess folgen. Ich hoffe ihr mögt meine Idee und Szenario der Fanart.
This time, I tried to draw an anime kinda eye. Hope it works out. Whst you think?
Now the wodden fence. Haha, a hole in it to look through so both can spy pretty well.
Shades, shadow and a bit gray please.
Details before making the eyes moving...
Now let's make picture for pictures to create afterwards the gif with the moving eyes...
Continue coloring. At the end it should be a colored fanart.
Not to forget about the eye catching details like the scars...

last but not least... /... Zum Schluß noch Wohl angemerkt...
To translate some of my german native words I used deepl.com. After I edited and corrected some parts because deepl.com couldn't translate all slang words perfectly. Just wanted to make this clear too.
I'm looking forward to read your opinion and have a nice week everyone. See you soon.
Ich bin auf eure Meinung gespannt und eine schöne Woche allen noch. Ich lese euch ganz bald wieder. Bis dahin, Baba.
