"Ithaqa" Comic Book Update #153 Reach For The Sky! (Splash Page)

in #art7 years ago

The_High_Priestess_5.jpg

Here we have the first major crossover between both groups of our main characters, Chuck has heard the shotgun blast and burst onto the scene!

It is not an ideal time for our characters (Mookie and Ruth) to encounter the police, but a shotgun can't go off on mainstreet without the fuzz noticing!

As always we try to include elements of the tarot in our splash page, and I'll be sure to do a more detailed breakdown on that once we get to the inking stage :)

If you're new to this comic I strongly recommend you check out our instagram, as I'm currently uploading pages from issue 1 there every day (this is issue 3).

That's a very impressive page, even at just the sketch stage. I enjoy finding out the symbolisms in such pages, and here there are several elements of the High Priestess: Ruth is the central figure just like the Priestess on her throne; the adversaries at her left & right (black and white pillars); and the moon above (would be interesting if it was reflected below, in a pool of water, or whatever). High Priestess is associated with secret knowledge, so I guess that's the issue that will reveal some of the Book's mysteries... at least, that's what I hope!

I like a lot the setup of this page, with the car on the sidewalk, all the characters around, the cultist doing his eldritch mumbo-jumbo in the back, Mookie rolling the camera, a headless body, excellent! Will be a great page, when inked and colored.

I'm overwhelmed !!!....A wonderful post ever.
