Description
The first page of the full-color graphic novel, initially titled "Inside Trade". This page is followed by "The Pit" . Hopefully this story will see the light of day someday. It's currently stuck in limbo while the publisher decides what to do with it.Related content

Wow... pretty...
I just read your Paradigm Shift comic. After I visited Chicago a few years ago, I thought about making a comic that took place there, but I can't think of good enough ideas and I don't know anything about the place. ^_^" But, it's a beautiful city.

I really love your work and some of it seems to be exactly what I've been looking for if i dont imagine it in the context you've been painting it. I have been looking for regular landscape scenarios but painted in the comic style, which is why I love this. I know you painted it as part of a graphic novel but if I ignore that context and look at it as just a picture of chicago, it's exactly what I've recently become obsessed in finding.

Your backgrounds are very nice. I'm horrible with perspective, but it's nice to see someone who is really good at both people and backgrounds. Perspective and I don't get along too well >.>;;

Yes, I finally got a camera and that is letting me study perspective easier. Now I just need to go to a real city and take some skyscraper pictures. Practice makes perfect~

The questions are over the format and story, not the art. There are legitimate concerns, but I do wish I could just put it out myself at this point.

Thanks!
The perspective's a bit skewed, but it's from a pretty extreme angle.
Reminds me, one day I should post some of my reference photos...
