Description Here's the cover for issue two. There'll be a few changes in the final version but this is pretty much done. I took a different approach than I normally do, color wise. Let me know what ya think.

The colors look so much more vibrant than your other works and the inks are poppin out as well.

I'd say adding another color to the left part of the background for more depth may push it more. Damn solid piece!

NotTheRedBaron [2009-03-04 20:06:10 +0000 UTC]

I'm loving the colour decisions - I'm personally a fan of the sepia tones anyway, but pulling back on the strong colours brings a sense of normality to the characters which are stylistically already larger than life - so the colours here lend weight to the image, rather than pushing it towards the realms of 'toon'.

Thanks man. Yeah actually actually had a couple different schemes before this one and then inspiration hit.

there's something about the guy's arms, they seem kinda low or too tiny maybe?

rest looks rad
