Description I was totally torn about whether or not to wait until the first pages were
up to submit the cover, but... Well, I figured I'd go ahead. Having the
cover up will push me harder to hurry and finish the first update.
Anyways, here it is! It's actually been drawn for one whole year (this
month!) but I just now finished the colors. That wolf has been biding his
time in my journal layout. lol Now he lives on the cover here and as the
placeholder image at valecomic.com ! It's actually coming together, I
can't believe it. There's an official website, so my life is irrevocably bound
to this project now, right?? I'll post in my journal when the first update
goes up!

so this is just such a big irony, that the Character here is like Sansa of ASOIAF, and it have a wolf that is House Stark's sigil, and now she is in the vale of arryn in Westeros, such a big irony i dare say.

Gaah, it's such a badass cover!!!

So beautiful! I love the glow effect, and her expression is very vivid (if it's appropriate to say so, sorry for my English, I don't practice it enough) Also, the atmosphere in your works is very special and I am intrigued by your project

Thank you so much! Yes, vivid is a very nice word to use, thank you! I'm happy to know you're interested! I hope I'll make it an interesting story to read~ (: Glad to hear from you, too! Would you tell your sister I said hi??

Gemberry In reply to CrystalCurtisArt [2012-03-08 14:20:54 +0000 UTC]

Oh I'm glad I used the word right)) 'cause usually when I want to comment I find myself stuck with no words in my head and end up with no comment and simply faving the art.. and this time "vivid" just came to my mind while I was looking at her face I'm sure the story will be interesting, I already adore the characters! Especially Tinder

And Ally is saying huge hi back and hugs! Says she's hoping to go online in MSN soon.. with her new job she just doesn't have enough free time

You are such a master at using sepia colors! I can always tell your artwork from the style and the colors that you use` the symmetry within this is quite nice and I love the intense look of things. Oh, I didn't know that you were making a comic with your lovely art style` It sounds very exciting`

Wow! This is really cool. I like how intense both the woman and the wolf look. And I like the contrast between the clean, crisp colors of the woman, and the mistier appearance of the wolf. This picture really makes me want to read your upcoming comic.
