Work stages on EMPOWERED vol.2's cover illo
Added 2021-04-08 13:01:01 +0000 UTCBehold, the work stages for Empowered vol.2's cover illo. Line art by me, colors by my bud Ryan Kinnaird. Note that early versions of the image had very different background elements....
....before I wound up settling on just debris as a backdrop, however temporarily:
Ryan tried out some different takes on the BG, including this dark, moody, cloudy one...
...followed by this lighter, less moody but still cloudy one...
...before we said, "Ehh, screw it," and removed the background entirely to match the white BG of Empowered vol.1's cover. (Note that the work stages for that cover will be coming up next month.)
TOMORROW ON THIS HERE PATREON: Very likely more Vintage Con Sketches, though who knows for certain? Not me!

The villain array would have looked pretty good, I think.
