Description And the sign said "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls, and tenement halls"


Just finished reading Watchmen and saw the movie, LOVED the book, liked the movie a good bit too, so I had to do some fanart. Anyhow, here's Walter Kovacs, our favorite prophet of doom riding the subway. Poor crazy little fellow, such a sad story.

God damn, I loved Rorschach. Watchmen was one of the best books Alan Moore has created, and it's a fucking masterpiece.

I also love the mood of this picture. It's almost draining to look at.

How can you think that mug is not cute? He is a very sad individual, but his conviction for his beliefs were astounding. I wish I had that type of passion. Great piece.

I loved the part when the newsstand guy asks about him saying the world was supposed to end yesterday. "Didn't it?"

I really like this one a whole lot. I think I might even make it as my desktop background.
Keep the great simple art coming.

Really? It's one of my new personal favorites too. It just looks really good. I like how ya even just put him on a subway train still holding that sign up and making his face look really miserable.

Cool! Doing a fan art that isn't of any kind of flashy or costumed scene is very much in the spirit of the book.

Great shading on his face. I love the little random things like the paper in his pocket and the graffiti in the background. They make the whole thing seem like it's real. Nice job sticking the clock and smiley in there, too.

The guy reading the book in the background looks like Dan Dreiburg. Random, yes.

Luthie13 In reply to AdiSagestar [2009-03-28 19:36:44 +0000 UTC]

ha ha Dan. It was wasn't intentional but that would be sorta funny. He wouldn't even know it was his ex-partner over there.
