Description
EDIT: I was told at SDCC 2008, that this cover never saw print as it was supposed to. I found out later that wasn't true. Also the original art mysteriously disappeared while in the hands of the company owner, Jeff Kaufman. Along with many other originals that we artists were never reimbursed for (which was in our contracts). Never work for a lawyer, folks!

One of the covers for issue #5 of the new vampire series Tempest from Big City Comics. Tempest #5 hits shelves March 2008, and starts a 6 issue run by artist Tommy Castillo.

This was my last cover ink for 2007, and my first for this series. Since this was in Previews last month I figured it was safe to post.

It was done entirely in crowquill except for Tempest's hair (brush), the fur of the werewolves (brush), and his belt buckle (technical pen).

Had quite an adventure getting it sent in, from pulling an all-nighter to traveling to the US to ship the cover because it was a holiday in Canada (so Fedex wasn't shipping there) so that it would arrive in time to be coloured and lettered for the Diamond solicitation. I was awake for over 36 hours.

Materials:
- bristol board
- brush
- crowquill
- technical pen
- ink
