Speedy-D Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 thanks Guys! There are a few Skull headed spiders by LB cole and a few on other Pre code horrors, but I think that is the 1st Bubblegum spider with a skull head. No way! It can't have taken this long!!

Oh yeah, your piece is so much more than the LB Cole and other assorted comic covers are. The layering and depth behind the web add so much to the dimentionality of the piece visually but also tonally and put a story-telling element completely missing from the comic covers. You are completely on another level (thumbs u thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calidream'n Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 This is a story my friend Darryl Young and I did for our senior yearbook in high school. We were only given four pages, so we had to make it short and sweet. D&D was very popular back then (circa 1987) so I wrote a story using that subject matter. Let me preface the work by saying that the machine that was used to copy our work didn't show tones, only black and white, so all the washes (dilluted ink painted to show shades of gray), didn't show. Still, I was happy with the work. Darryl now works for McDonalds designing art and toys for kids meals. He also worked for General Mills doing commercials (lucky charms, etc.) Page 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bronze_rules Posted October 8, 2009 Author Share Posted October 8, 2009 Page 4 The last panel here was almost all washes Even an excellent and concise story with a twist. Awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanfingh Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Page 4 The last panel here was almost all washes Even an excellent and concise story with a twist. Awesome. Agreed. I also really like the Ditko-esque demon in the last panel and I really appreciate that the artist didn't show his junk, although it was really close.

Funny thing about Darryl; he has always been pretty sqeaky-clean with his art, but after high school I went into the Navy and he was trying to find work as an artist. He did a few issues of a book called "Debbie does Dallas" by some independant publisher. Not typical Darryl Young stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sckao Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 (edited) Great D&D stuff! I must not be remembering my spell lists correctly... With the Cleric there (Detect Evil), why did the Wizard get asked to Raise the Dead? Actually, the cleric had an edged weapon... Paladin?

I researched it just well enough to get some of the terminology. I never actually played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calidream'n Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Great Stuff Matt & Shin! TY Matthew. I am trying to dig up a 10 page back up Darryl and I did for some independant title; I can't remember the book. If I find it, I'll throw it up.
