So here's an early preview for our upcoming chapter cover! Kind of wanted to up my game a bit and get back into painting with this, though, in retrospect, I should've probably made it trippier and less over-rendered. Polished art really isn't my strong side, but it's good to try.




And here's some early drafts. I was gonna go with the left one, but everyone I showed these to went with the right, much to my annoyance (full figures take a lot more work and that angle was a massive pain to get right) :

Just 1 meatbag's opinion: I like the left one better. The right one is cool but looks a bit too polished and like a generic movie poster.

Damn, I dig the left one more too. Final product still looks amazing anyways.

Regarding the polish, it's a rendering style I've been wanting to try so it'd probably affect whichever variant I went with - I do agree it might be a bit too airbrushey (though worth practicing)! It has also turned out that I ended up doing a variant I didn't want, you guys didn't want and even the people *I thought* picked it, actually did not, as I've only just found out. Hurrah for miscommunications! :') ...I guess seeing me mess up is gonna be one of this patreon's unlisted rewards 8D -cryo

Looks like I can't reply to a reply (patreNO)... just to be clear since I was a bit blasé in my first comment, the right one is still fucking bad ass and professional-looking and my GIMPing trying something like that would look like a pile of bad, thrown up hotdogs, so it's still relatively amazing, but just giving my gut feeling that you could be even more amazingererer. It's cool to interact with a creator like this!

Thanks, and no worries, this morning I was just mad that I went against my own gut feeling, too :D I dunno, I might redo it for print, but for now I'll be focusing on getting the pages done. I think it might be cool to post drafts in the future and give patrons a say before I do the final, too :D -Cryo

Your shading is beyond beautiful. I'm not convinced about the typography at the bottom. That black square behind it seems... off?

A powerful cover. The full body versipn conveys more, through poses, than the close-up I think
