Update: Cover + First page

I wanted to share my new version of the cover with you. And what I almost sure about is going to be the first page in this new story!



Update: The beginning of the action...


Music while drawing: Taylor Swift (album 1989) -  I know...
Tools: Photoshop, wacom
Comment: Don't mind the bad English, I am listening Taylor Swift....

This is an action sequence I am working at. The main character Olivia is followed by two dangerous killers while she has to find a letter from a dead friend on the graveyard.

 I really like this page because it gives the comic a feeling of motion. My plan is to put a human skull in the left bottom of the page, just a joke (a reference to the cover of the first comic ).
I do not know where the name Celendriel comes from, I just made it up. The time she lived was exactly she same as I am living now. The story of the comic itself plays out in the year 2057.
I am not satisfied with this page yet. I just wanted that Olivia would get the chance to get the letter. So I just let the killers go back to the forest to look for her... 
 In the last page of this sequence I let Olivia find the letter. I especially like the two shots with the low view angle. 

I think you can find this full scene somewhere in the begin of the final comic. Probably with some changes.
