Here's a sketch of some monstrous primordial tentacled thing. You'll probably see something along these lines again as I'm not completely satisfied with how this image turned out. It is supposed to be gigantic, but this has no scale to it. As it is here, it seems kind of cute.
This week's Featured Creature is going to be delayed a day, maybe two. Research for the story has taken longer than I anticipated. Here is a bit of teaser art to tide you over until I get the story finished. Soon.
Here's a recent quick emotional graphite sketch. I wanted to do something more with this piece, but it never expanded beyond this simple image.
The day had started overcast and temperate, but a heavy wind had blown in from the west around lunchtime. The trees shook and swayed all afternoon as the cold air had settled in. By evening, the sky was mostly clear except for a thicket of clouds to the north. Now the last vestiges of clouds struggled to maintain their forms against the harsh cold gusts. Glen watched several smaller puffs just above the horizon dissipate as they slid across the sky. The sun had begun to set, but he had one more task before heading back to the house. He turned his Jeep onto the dirt road that led to the north ridge pasture.
A quick note to let you know that I've just uploaded a fresh set of links to the Writing gallery. I have also added several new sections: Short Stories, World Building, and Poetry. Check it out and let me know what you think!
Thrones of control
Here's one of my all time favorite Marvel Comics characters, Cloak. Though generally inseparable from his partner, Dagger, I always like it when they present the occasional one off Cloak on his own story. Although the surface gist of his powers is cool, I've always enjoyed the underlying supernatural quality to his abilities. Also for superhero drama, what's more dramatic than a giant shadow filled cloak that blows around in the wind all the time and sucks you into a shadow dimension?
