This post is to explain and show my FMP. I have created a battle scene between a Nordic Viking and an English Knight. To create the stances they stand in I have used the image above to draw out the dynamic poses that they stand in. The original idea for my FMP was a short animation however due to my lack of time management I made the choice to change my FMP to a Photoshop project instead.
For the background I decided to go with the green hills and mountains that are often seen in the places Vikings once resided. The Mountains also allowed me to use them as a sort of frame for the action that will take place between the warriors. Having such high mountains and hills also allowed me to practice with blending colours to get a much more natural earthy colouration.
For this part of my FMP I based the homes off of traditional Viking homes which were made of wood and often had moss and other plants growing on the roofs.
In an effort to make it seem like a real fight between these two people I thought that having a raging fire in the background would give the battle some seriousness behind it and would not leave people believing that it might be a fight between two friends or siblings. To get the fire effect I simply lined the house with the colours in the fire and then used the liquefy tool to melt them together like the colours in a real fire do. For the smoke I just used a shaped brush and using quick strokes I managed to get a smoky effect.
