Description I started this a while back for the Children's Illustrator Group

It's may take on Captain Hook and Peter Pan that I laid out fully in a huge sketchbook in university. This book was so epic in size I had clasp straps stitched to it just to be able to keep it closed.

These same character designs can be seen in these earlier images too >>> [link] <<<>>> [link] <<< I called the moon the 'croon moon' because at night he sings small children to sleep. Later on I developed him to look like Elvis.

I'm going to use this as a pretty big portfolio piece now to get into more classic illustration. It was done, as with all of my work, in pencil and then inked with fountain pens and ink/PITT pens on Bristol board with some Photoshop rubbed up it.

I may consider selling prints of this to donate the money to Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital >>> [link] <<<. Or I may try and market it in another more constructive way to get capital together for them.

This has really got me thinking I want to do an illustration from Peter Pan In Scarlet, next.

Wow, this is excellent. I love Peter's expression and the leaves all over him, and the captain's clothes are boss. I really like the patterns and textures. Overall a wonderful piece! Oh, and the moon is awesome.

I called the moon the 'croon moon' because at night he sings small children to sleep. Later on I developed him to look like Elvis.

Convenient that he disappeared around the same time as the apollo missions went belly up.

Cheers, by the way. Hope to have all the pirates up here at some point or another.

Indeed. Veeeery suspicious. But now we know the truth!

Nice! I'll be looking forward to it.

Don't hold your breath though. It took me this long to get this image up.
