Description
ON TUMBLR PRINT ON ETSYNEW FAUST ART!!
This was actually an unfinished comic cover concept from an a school assignment from last year. I still meant to finish it at some point, so I picked it back up to make a print for an upcoming convention (more info on that shortly.) This scene is shaking down to be either a garden variety memento mori or one bananas menage a trois.... I didn't get many WIP shots of this, but I might post breakdown of the painting in layers if anyone is interested.
(Fun Fact: The skeleton is actually a self portrait! You can see the resemblance because I also weep blood when I have to look directly at something I drew.)

Hi there! Sorry for the late reply,
Short answer is not in the near future. I do eventually want to draw the full comic, but I have some other projects planned before it. I will be doing other Faust art in the meantime, but I don't have a solid itinerary for when I'll get to the actual comic. I do actually have some more pages from it that I did for my thesis last year. They're sort of snippets from various scenes and aren't all lettered. but I think I will try to get them posted nonetheless.
Thank you so much for your interest in the project!

Care to form a contract? Looks like someone formed one already.

What a coincidence, I have the exact same reaction! Isn't our resemblance striking?

I do believe that "the eye bleeds," as it's colloquially known, is a common condition among artists...
