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

 

:blush: thanks!

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 4 The last panel here was almost all washes :cry:

:golfclap:

 

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.

Thanks. 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!

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?

Your D&D class would be "Nitpicker." :baiting:

That would be "Dungeon Master". My little brother actually sold my campaigns and artwork after we were done with them.

lol...Good question. I researched it just well enough to get some of the terminology. I never actually played.
