just for fun

December 1st, 2007

Some of the images I’ve put together over the last year or two while CWaCS was just living in my head as a graphic novel.

Of varying quality and interest to anyone I guess, but for fun here are a couple of ‘em.

This is intended as a background image for a titles/intro page, using some of the common motifs from the  novel – of which moths are one.

Main character, Yumi. Obviously for a graphic novel she can be as wackily dressed and crazy as I want her to be. As the pen-and-paper novel progressed I discovered that she actually passes for mortal most of the time, so her style of dress had to evolve into something involving less tape on the the nipples. At least in public!

One of Yumi’s dead. A little surprsied to find himself in that state, and the specific line of dialoge here is “What the hell is with this tie?”

As his story unfolds.

Yumi’s sister, and her pet raven. Same thing as above applies to her style of dress.

A walk in the Savannah evening. Can you tell from her depiction that she’s a bit of a rule-breaker?

    Some nice work there. Got to say the last one is my favourite just because of the style of the piece.

    Thanks, it’s one of my favorites too, not least because it’s based on a photograph I took when I was last in Savannah. :)
