Description
Fan art of Jeff Smith’s BONE, which I am reading for the first time this year and has been a huge source of inspiration.
I started with the exact layout of the classic Star Wars poster but it didn't feel right so I changed Thorn's pose and added the rat creatures to make if feel more like Bone. With the hatchey line art I was going for (and probably failed to achieve) a Gustave Doré, Sergio Toppi, Eric Canete vibe. More restrained cartooning is very trendy right now in comics but many of the artists I admire aren’t afraid to put a lot of marks on the page. Since Jeff Smith so brilliant with doing more with simpler lines and shapes, I thought I’d go the opposite direction with this tribute.
