A couple weeks ago, I was painting a waterscape backdrop for a popular video game I'm working on contract, and realized "wow.. I can actually paint water fairly well". And so I took those newly learned skills and created this painting. Ferrod's interception is about an ill fated voyage of a pirate ship heading towards a mysterious isle named Haddross. Unfortunately for them, legendary Ferrod Serpent Dragons protect the boundaries of the isle.
Time to complete was about 25 hours.
