It is very useful when you are suffering from art block, and it can also help your future clients decide what kind of graphics they want. What is a “mood board”? A mood board is a reference sheet to help you convey the mood and atmosphere you want to create for your scenes. It is easy to navigate as pictures are sorted by categories (skies, mountains, panoramas, etc.) and can be downloaded in raw image format (.RAW) allowing precise modification.
Most of the time, I find references on the website which is filled with incredible images, aimed for matte painting and concept art. When working professionally, I avoid digging through Google Images as I might get sued for copyright infringement (it can happen to anyone, even the show Stranger Things fell into this trap).
It takes me at least half a day of research, depending on the subject and the complexity of the picture I am working on. See the article below to learn more about matte painting.Īfter I’ve finished developing my ideas, I look up references that may be useful when creating my illustration.
