Kingdom/Castle Designs


This was my first initial idea for the kingdom, a hill with a beautiful castle on top surrounded by a village. From this watercolour I went on to make a large watercolour, seen below. 


I decided from this, that I didn't want the Kingdom to look this beautiful and full of life. I wanted it with less colour, and the castle much more stylised to fit the look of the village. I threw a sketch together (See below) which I was really happy with, and the design process went from there.


I began designing the castle more in depth, (below right) and then put together a rough sketch for a large watercolour. (below left)



This is my final design for the kingdom, in a large watercolour image. There is not much life here, with dead plants and mud throughout. Behind the castle is the chasm in the ground preventing the darkness from entering the Kingdom.
