Description As the title says, the cover to an edition of the Event Horizon magazine. I sadly didn't have as much time as I would have liked on this. There are a couple of things I would have changed if it weren't for the tight deadline. But oh well, it was still fun. The tiger's whiskers have been added in the final version, by the way (as well as some other details).

Pencils, inks: Enrique Corts!
Colors: Me (Monk)

Software: Adobe Photoshop CS.

Fantastic cover. I'm really sad to see this book go away. I think it was filling a very nice, particular niche in the market that not many other books do.

The green lighitng on the tiger is a nice touch. I know you say you didn't have a lot fo time to finish this. Any thoughts to another version on your leisure time?

Also, I'm still working Photoshop 7 - is CS loads better?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

FabianMonk In reply to dooters [2006-02-01 12:15:36 +0000 UTC]

Probably no touch-ups. My schedule's not the lightest at the moment, and I don't really like going back to pieces after a week's time or longer. I start losing interest.

And PS CS isn't loads better at all. For coloring or painting, the only really notable difference is that in fullscreen mode, you can now move the image around as much as you want, and you're not restricted by the image borders any longer. Then there's things such as being able to customize your own keyboard shortcuts, but I don't use that at all, I've gotten so used to the old ones...

meh.....this one kinda dissapoints me! haha nah for real, like you said, if you had soem time I know for sure that it would look mucho better then this, its still a great piece, but it stays pretty flat and bland for seom reason, I also dont really like the way you coloured the tiger with the green, he almost seems like he's been made out of plastic!

but meh, its always better then my stuff! haha anywayz, lovely job once again, but could be better!

FabianMonk In reply to no26 [2006-02-01 12:16:49 +0000 UTC]

Hehe, yeah it happens.
For some reason I really like the green on the tiger though. I think it adds an interesting touch.
Anyway, Enrique and I have done another collab already that I can't show, and that one's better for sure.
