After the "Cornerd" piece of yours I went to read the comix.
I'm only starting the Part Two now , but I have the feeling she's the monster
I really loved the comix, great job.
And this pic's cool too!

Oh wow, Chicago is/can be a very romantic place, indeed. You sculpted the background to give the park justice, it's just so detailed and spot on. Given, you had a ref pic, but that just makes me admire it more. It can be tricky, but you've nailed it, and even the atmosphere to go with it.
Excuse my babbling, but this is, indeed, pretty great. (:

Thanks! I have a tendency to get myself wrapped up in that sort of thing.

yeah, I see the seams now, finished product's great too. Speaking of Chicago landmarks, we going to get to see the Berghoff or Boston Blackies in a setting? the city's a regular petri dish for the Noir Germ.

Probably not at this point -- at least not in Part Three. Kate and Mike won't have a much time in the Loop for awhile, yet. On the agenda are Lincoln Park Zoo and the Field Museum for obvious reasons, though. Stay tuned...

That thing is awesome in person. Bitch to draw, though.
You might notice that this is the Bean circa Dec. 2004, because it still has the seams in it, before they covered it up for nearly a year to grind it down smooth.

Yeah. I'm awful fond of it. It's too damned cold right now, though.
