Description
The first of 4 Modesty covers for me this year with a closer view of Modesty thrown in for good measure...the issue just hit the streets so it should be okay to post the artwork.Pencil sketch, painted in photoshop.
No beautiful women were harmed in the painting of this cover.

Thanks man! I wanted to give her a sword with lots of detail as a point of contrast and interest to the simplicity of her outfit.

aha!; Agent X9 my old nemesis (or rather, the nemesis of my pocketmoney)
Havent read it since I was twelve, and crrently living in another country so I cant pick it up, but I like the cover.
Probably they will clut it somewhat with images of other comix in the mag...
Good Job man!

Cheers man. Glad to hear your pocketmoney is now safe . Actually the guys at AgentX magazine have been keeping the covers remarkably free from other stuff and have even told me before hand if they needed to put extras there so I can design around it. Really nice of them!!

i think i'm developing a man crush. i have yet to see you do anything that i haven't liked, which makes me suspicious... very suspicious

I'd be suspicious of me too - I have a goatee and we all know how untrustworthy people with goatees are. After all Shakespeare had one and we know Christopher Marlowe REALLY wrote his plays (despite being dead for some of them), Colonel Sanders had one and obviously lied about his title as he was never in the military, Malcom X's surname wasn't X (it was 'Little'), Lenin had one and he was a 'commie'... the list goes on.

There was a chicken who strained its left wing, a cow with minor bruising and an unfortunate incident where the neighbours cat got run over during the proceedings - is that exciting enough for you?
Cheers!

Lol! Probably not a good idea - I wont listen to your prayers, guide you with wisdom or give you instructions on how to live. On the other hand I wouldn't 'smite' you. Not big on smite-ing.
Cheers!

Cheers! Its a monthly Swedish comic that reprints classic Modesty Blaise newspaper runs. I dont think you can get it in the US or Canada - you certainly cant get it here in Australia... but then its all in Swedish!

bpisek In reply to Loopydave [2011-06-09 05:26:03 +0000 UTC]
That would be nice to have. I've seen strips on comicartfans.com; beautiful ink, and design on those strips.
I would like to get my hands on those Swedish reprints. You're illustrated covers have me hooked.
