Thank you to everyone who supported this project and contributed ideas to Community Commission No. 1! It was not possible without you, and I hope you’re as excited as we are about launching the next one. Stay tuned, and feel free send us your suggestions!
PS - If you’re lusting after a copy of this thing, you might want to join the mailing list. Hint, hint.
Hey, everyone! I believe I’ve wrapped up the Commission! I finished the colors this evening, and wanted to show you. What do you all think? This is essentially a collaboration, so you guys have a say here, too. What do you think? Is it finished? How do you like it? Give it to me straight! Hope you love it. I sure do.
Hot damn! Fresh off the sketchbook, I have for your greedy eyes the finished inks on the Group Commission! The ink really breathes some new life into the drawing. I’ve tightened up all the sketchy details, and added some finishing touches that really polish it all up nicely.
I’m going to add in some additional design elements that have changed from the pencils to the ink stage (like the “Schwing” logo, and the title on the “Ritual Sacrifice for Dummies” book) in the coloring process. Let me know what you think of the piece so far! Any suggestions as to the colors for the final? I should hand this drawing out on paper with a box of crayons and see what everyone comes up with.
Would anyone who’s getting a print when I’m finished be interested in getting a black and white version to color themselves? I should put together a coloring book someday. Of course, you’d never give it to your kids…
And our adjective-adjective-noun combinations, for your enjoyment: Hindu Plumbing God, Giant Silver Squid, Cthulhu’s Sushi Emporium, Cthulhu’s Last Supper, Ethereal Moonlit Pedalwheeler, Mysterious Wide-eyed Hierophant, Bicycling Cumming Nuns, and Deliriously Cthonic Baccante. How many can you find? (It shouldn’t be too hard!)
Welcome, Fundable Faithful!
I’ve finished up the pencils for the entire drawing, and I wanted to share with you! It looks pretty fantastic. Make sure to get a good look at it - there are lots of neat little details all over the place. Hopefully more will be added along the way, but we’ve got a great start on it! Can you all see where your contributions are? Hopefully it’s obvious at this point, but let me know if you need a hint on any of them.
All the Fundable Contributors got a full list of the 3-word phrases…. Does anyone who’s *not* involved out there care to take a guess as to what some of them are? I can’t imagine you’ll get any of them exactly right, but it ought to be entertaining to see what gets bandied around. Heh!
So tell me what you think of it so far, and we’ll keep moving forward! I’ll keep you updated on the progress of the inking.
