“The Knight and the Sea Monster” is a set of illustrations that tell the story of a knight in a distant kingdom that needs to slay a monster for her majesty. Thing is, after facing the enormous power of said monster, the knight decides to make a deal with it, instead of dying while fighting.
Based on a story structured by me, I developed the drawings in traditional media, using a fountain pen and black ink. Afterwards, they were colored in both watercolor and digital painting.
The complete story:
The Search
The Meeting
The Lie
The Contact
The Bonding
The Accusation
The Dilemma
