Popular Post Crimebuster Posted November 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 1, 2023 (edited) My new comic Quest #2 is currently live on Kickstarter, and since this issue features my main character Vhess the paladin battling the undead, it only made sense to me to do a Walking Dead homage cover. You know how much I love my homage covers! This is an homage to Tony Moore's cover for The Walking Dead #19, the first appearance of Michonne. I particularly enjoy trying to get the trade dress right. I couldn't quite match the Walking Dead logo font, but this one is pretty close and invokes the feel nicely. I was able to match the font for the issue number, and also the "image" in the company logo - since my brand is Crimebuster Comics, I moved the dot from the image "i" to turn it into a "c." I always try to get the covers as close as possible to the original while still making them fit my comics. In this case I might have been a little too faithful with the zombies and background elements, I'm not sure. I usually use a different brush, as you can see with the figure of my character Vhess - this time I tried something else with the background, but I think it means my character maybe doesn't blend in with the other elements as well as the line weight is different. I'm still pretty happy with it though! Edited November 2, 2023 by Crimebuster s-man, Senormac, KirbyJack and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B2D327 Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Just in time for Hallowe…um, never mind Vampi I did today. Had an idea on the hand placement but got too lazy to adjust it. Looking at it now, there’s a couple of ways I could’ve done ‘em but I have a habit of rushing myself to finish things only to look back at them and say, “I should’ve done this instead” CJ Design and KirbyJack 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Senormac Posted November 10, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2023 Jacks cover for the upcoming Spike #9. My original thought was a 12 issue run, but progress is pretty slow. Slower even than Mark Schultz Xenozoic Tales !! Having him do all the insides as well as the covers takes time. And it's a labor of love more than anything else. One thing about the artwork trickling in is the writing gets rewritten and polished 100 times. B2D327, KirbyJack, CJ Design and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also made lunch for our daughter from 1st through 4th grade and drew a pic on her paper bag ...every single day. She says she wishes she kept them..
