Hey guys, this will most likely be my last update for my book debut, Two Mistakes Two Many, before it's Canadian release in May. This is the cover piece for the final chapter of Book Two, entitled "Shadows of Shadipur."

I originally had a different title for it, but I found myself so attached to the name after accidentally typing it in place of some of the dialogue in the chapter. Sounds sort of like "Shadow of the Colossus," my favourite PS2 game, by the way! Guess it sort of influenced me to do this cover!

Come check out my campaign if you've a moment to waste! [link]

Is this ink or traditional? OR BOTH?! I can never tell with you~! But this looks incredible. I love the grainy texture you have in the sky along with your usual, awesome inking. Oh, I'm getting shivers!

Do you know the fighting game Skullgirls? For some reason -the shape of the horns and the way they're pointed/angled- this made me immediately think of the brief shot we get of Queen Renoir as the Skullgirl. [link](Nancy)

Why thank you Maggie! Hah, the lines were done traditionally in India Ink, but the greys were done on computer. Also, a portion of the beast's body was flood filled in black on computer. So mainly traditional but definitely with a digital touch.

And I know that game! I never really got to play it but the animation in it is so badass! Quite the cool comparison.

Haha it didn't actually. I ended up google-ing the character.

Oops! Sorry about that. But yes...the horns were what made me think of her.

That's pretty cool! I know I said that this would be my final upload from my new book, but I have about 6 days left on the project and I'm getting such good pages! I wanna upload one more page! I'm conflicted!
