LUSTory #53 (V ThrowBackThursday) (Patreon)

It is Valentine's celebration month, and I go for a SPECIAL LUSTory focusing on the cover I did for the 3rd chapter, the one we are revisiting for some time. 

I have to confide I truly have this "Je t'aime moi non plus" relationship with this cover. I love it, and I hate it. This comes from a super idea I had in mind, both romantic & scary with the smoke monster above / behind them, and the final thing that just don't fit. I've been blaming the colors (it's really worse on the printed version, as I self published a limited number of copies back in the day).  But the whole scene & rendering seems a bit weak, compared to some of the best panels in the comic.

Anyway, for this Throw Back Thursday, I reworked it a bit, cut the top, trying daytime. One could say: when in doubt, always trust the hump!
