"The Alchemist"

Bust by Spiramirabilis, sculpt by Lucas Pina.



Really enjoyed to create my vision for this amazing sculpt. An Alchemist experimenting with Fire, Earth, Water and Air. In my version I really wanted to give these elements important weight and demonstrating the different colors and properties for each of them, whilst still connecting everything in a magical blueish ambience. Was quite hard to wrap my head around this color scheme and keep it all in balance. The blue magical dots start to appear in the book, in the tree of life and mark every magical aspect he summons. Really loved to breathe life in him! Thank you Lucas for sculpting such great characters that sparkle my brain!



Hope you like my version!

Keep on happy painting!

Yours, Roman

    What a beautiful work! I love the idea of the 4 elements and how you have implemented it. At first I thought that the magic points were generated by the potion until I saw them coming out of the book. pure magic!

    • Roman LappatPLUS

      Ha! Got you. This was the Plan, to let this grow out of the magic he finally found in this old book ...thank you!
