Double Cross Arc Cover - Full Color Reveal!

Howdy y'all!

Last week I teased this by showing you the penciled version, but the fully colored version is now ready for you to see and I've even created some new pin-up rewards for you!

Adam DeKraker's awesome pencils have now been colored by one of my favorite colorists, Alex Sollazzo, who has colored all of The Young Protectors covers, and I think he did a stunning job with this one. I love his luscious painterly style and I think it really suits the "film noir poster" vibe I was going for. Adam's linework was already impressive but Alex's colors just bring everything to life!

I then added some "credits" on the bottom with an art deco font, and our Double Cross "movie poster" cover is now complete!

What do you think? Does it do our story justice? Will it encourage new readers to click onto the next page?

Let me know in the comments below!

Also, I've used the art to create some special wallpapers for y'all, sized specifically for your desktop computer and phone.

Here is the desktop version:

And here the the version for your mobile device:

Hopefully they will find a good home on your computer-y stuff. 

And, as always, there are high-res versions of this art for $10+ backers available via itch.io  -- so if you'd like to see a version of these two pin-ups with over twice the resolution, you'll be able to do that here.

Anyway, I hope you really like the art and the wallpapers I made for you. Please let me know in the comments below!

And thank you so much for your continued support. It's only because of you that I'm able to create special pieces of art like this that really enhance the reading experience and help make sure our stories with gay heroes are just as good as, if not better than, what mainstream publishers are putting out there for the straight boys. 

Because you deserve the best.

More soon! :)

Yay, glad you like it, Goodyear! Thank you! I hope you had a great time at your cottage. :)

Alex Woolfson

Thank you, Bill!

Alex Woolfson

Ahhhh, I come back from the cottage to see the glorious coloured version of this cover art posted! It's just as beautiful as I imagined it would be. Love the shadow of the title text merging with the picture border. Very classy :D

Goodyear

It has all been said already, "kick butt cover". Good stuff.

william clapie

Thank you, Malik! :D

Alex Woolfson

Howdy Tim! I think your comment is the bee's knees, my friend. I'm so glad you like the cover! :D

Alex Woolfson

Yay! Thank you, Kendall! I'm glad you like all the different contributions each of us made. (And yes, we've got a plethora of A's here!)

Alex Woolfson

Thank you, Passthecass. I think with a complicated montage like this, the colors are essential. I'm glad you like what you see!

Alex Woolfson

Yay! So glad that you think so, Julia! Thank you!

Alex Woolfson

Thank you, Julian! I'm so glad you like it!

Alex Woolfson

Thank you so much, Steve! I'm really glad you feel we pulled it off! And I hope you're able to redo those rooms soon. I bet if you just explain to your (12!) kitties how important that style is to you, they'll make sure to be on their best behavior in that part of your house. I mean, that's how cats work, right? :D

Alex Woolfson

WOW! Just… 🀩🀩🀩

Malik M.L. Williams

This is so cool! Wait.... I mean "Hot diggity dog! Youse guys are cookin' with gas! This cover is the cat's pajamas, and that's no malarkey!" I really love this work.

Tim Cole

Yaassssss I love the finished version! And the Art Deco touches in the frame, title, & credits ;-) are perfect. Great work, Alex/Adam/Alex! AAA, heh.

KendallPB

Wow! These colors are gorgeous. I love how they give definition to all the different scene layers from the pencil art. Great work everybody :)

Passthecass

With the colors this is... perfect. just perfect. i love it!!!

That is fantastic - I liked the 'noir' look and this coloured version is even more attractive! Compliments indeed to all involved.

Julian White

Hi Alex, this artwork looks fantastic. My compliments to Adam and Alex S. Between you and the art team, you've definitely achieved the look and style you were after. I've always liked Art Deco style and would love to have 1 or 2 rooms in the house done in that style when we no longer have so many cats (12!) destroying everything πŸ™„
