Artist's Comments

This was my submission for a comic book challenge, I'm sure many of you have already seen 'cause it was on every banner ad I ran across.

It's a story about a mechanic, a rich brat, a good hearted thief and a witty student set in the overwhelming city of Centropolis. Which is basically a 1930s New York with an alternative history twist that gives it this noir, steampunk, retro-futuristic feel, throughout the story ...

Anyway, it obviously didn't pass into the top 50, so I decided to share it with you. Can't say I'm particularly disappointed since I know my skill level isn't exactly high, it's just that in two weeks time I have that university exam where I have to show my work and this is a low blow to my confidence levels which, wasn't high before either. I'm gonna redraw it again and with real ink, for the portfolio, and after that...I'll come back to it eventually, cause I've been creating the setting for a long time, just can't draw it yet...

Centropolis _ page 1 by ~Obeah Nice colour scheme, un-intrusive but easy to follow dialog and the inking and lighting is nice too. (Suggested by ~Capn-Chaos and Featured by `misskittyoooo)

for what it's worth ; i think it's great. i like the colors you've chosen , they really suit the era. the lighting and blurred image at the bottom is fantastic :)
:iconobeah:
Thanks, it does mean a lot. *sigh* for the first time the colors are EXACTLY what I wanted them to be, too bad the rest of it isn't. The whole feel of the place isn't exactly in it. I'm redrawing it, so we'll see how that turns out =)

Mary dances for the angels
She's a puppet turned to queen
She's the harlot of the holy
Only angels hear her sing
