Description It's been a while since I've submitted one of the illustrations from Voyage to Ruin. Don't worry, I'm almost done!

This is from Chapter Eight, when Drake and Moral must visit the House of the Dead ... I won't tell you why! Go read the book!

----

The Voyage to Ruin is a novel of piratical adventure by H.L. Trombley. It's available on Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, Borders, etc. If the hardcover price makes you cringe, you can also download a pdf copy here: [link]

Ummm... ink washes and a little bit of gouache, I think. Also some cheating in photoshop.

I love the black and white! There's always something so appealing and romantic about black and whites in my opinion!

I must read that some day, your illustrations make it look so wonderfully compelling. <3 I'm loving how this whole thing is laid out, with the dark and the light subtly blending into each other and that lovely sweep down from the sky into the undulating of the waves... gah I sound pretentious. but I hope I'm coming across. I currently fail at making layouts and such, so I am admiring your technique here

CapnFlynn In reply to math-san [2007-09-27 20:50:07 +0000 UTC]

It's the first in a series. Or, a planned series, anyway. Right now there's just the one.
