in this project, I tried to use 3 main elements, following the concept art class instructions, (a rocket, a castle and sand)

I started by creating my mood board, I loved that part because it put me in the mood instantly, I used Miro, pinterest and some booksfor the second part I sketched my idea in black and white hues, I loved using the brushes set, they were amazing:

I followed by adding the colors, I was too excited to move to this step, I didn't complete the base drawing which needs more structure I think, but it's my first illustration so I wanted to experiment first and learn from my mistakes

then moving to making my own brush, that was fun, now i'm excited about creating my own set of brushes, I made one using coffee beans, not perfect yet, but working on improving it
