Artist's Comments

Some more work I did for the MERURE2 comic collective, this was my cover submission. I didn't win again, but I lost to this very awesome one, you'll see, it's worth it and I don't mind!

I'm still proud of this, though. Nowadays I find I'm stuggling with my style; lately I've been experimenting with longer, thinner body shapes, but I've been playing it safe with facial anatomy. This marks something new, I really love the way her face turned out. And I also jumped on this occasion to try out a new colouring technique: everything was shaded with pencil and I just applied flats on top.

So yeah, I hope you like, because I do, for once.

Title's a song by Placebo.

Oooh, I love the mix of pencil and screentone. It gives it a nice grainy feel. Lovely as always Boum. ^^

J'adore la texture! Le mélange de crayon et de trame c'est vraiment un mix qui fonctionne bien avec ton style de dessin et de couleur! Bravo!
:iconsortoftalented:
Nice work. It's fun you mention that you've been struggling with you style. I've been wanting to work in a more cartoon look myself. Something much less detailed oriented, like much of my artwork is. :)

:cuddle: that's brilliant (figure, texture) :deviation: hmm, you perhaps should've left out the birds and put the title on the upper left instead ;-)
:iconi-like-toads:
Looks really interesting. I love those birds, and the screentonish effects!

I really love the lips: the size is exaggerated without being over the top/stealing attention away from the eyes :)

J'aurais préféré que ça soit toi qui gagne pour le cover! J'trouve que ton style reflète plus le style de la BD ! Je l'aime ! ^-^
