Description
Year: 2011Client: Vertigo/ DC Comics
Media: Media: Pencil, PITT Pen and COPIC marker on Strathmore Drawing paper, then colored with Adobe Photoshop CS2.
This is the wraparound cover to Bill Willingham's FAIREST, coming soon from Vertigo/DC Comics. It's the new new FABLES spinoff book, and I'm the regular cover artist. I've been a FABLES fan for a while now, and am really excited to be a contributor now!
This one was WORK, I mus say, and not for the reasons you might think... When I do regular covers for a book, it usually takes me 5-7 covers before I figure out how I like to portray the main character.
On THIS cover, I had to commit to how I would portray, what, 13 characters? 'Ugh!' and "Oh, no!'
I'm not going to name all the characters portrayed here, because sharp-eyed FABLES fans seem to be having too much fun trying to guess all of them!

Unfortunately I'm not familiar with the ladies but I assume she is supposed to be Red Riding Hood.
I wish Hughes would do the interior as well, then I would consider looking into the series.

I think that she's Rose Red Snow White's sister, not little red. And yeah, I'm gonna buy it mostly for his cover art.

I thought so too, but I looked this up - [link] - and it seems to fit. As for Hughes, the guy's got mad skillz. He's one of the best on DA.

I would even go so far to say he's one of the best in the industry.
