minijeff Posted February 25, 2010 Author Share Posted February 25, 2010 First of all that cover is brilliant . One constructive criticism I have is that the titling 'The Shattering' isn't dominant enough on the artwork & could possibly 'get lost' in the repro stage.....perhaps a more analagous colour with the background. Also have you tried 'shattering' the word 'Dark Reign' .....continuing the shatter-effect through the title ? BTW .....WTF would I know It's beautiful. ooo I like the idea of shattering the Dark Reign title space....hmmmm some thing to work with and see what I come up with....maybe shattering it with the "The Shattering" to give it more impact Thanks BHM!

murderofcrows Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Jeff great cover. I like the transition from the red to the purple, and the over lay looks very professional. The only advice I have is dont over think your work. If something feels right when you create it go with it! moc847 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buttheadsmate Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I really think this a brilliant project Jeff ......although perhaps the 'word balloon' continuity is a bit off? The last 2 panels might want Frank's 'speech' to the left of the panel ? Other than that ......Wow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minijeff Posted April 7, 2010 Author Share Posted April 7, 2010 Thanks Rob! I had issues with the word balloons on the last page when putting it together, and now that I sit back from it I am going to go back and change Fury's font completely, it seems a bit tough to read...so expect new versions of the pages tomorrow again lol Jeff of the Miniacs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minijeff Posted April 7, 2010 Author Share Posted April 7, 2010 I really like the effect you used when Fury reveals himself. That and the eyepatches on both. thanks I am very happy with the reveal, and yea the fact that both have eye patches was a great little nod...when that Tigh proto showed up in the mail I knew I had to use him for a disguise for Fury! oh wow. Awesome work buddy. Can't wait to see the rest of this little adventure. thanks man! I am working away on the rest a scene at a time to save myself from feeling overwhelmed by home big it is....right now I am waiting on a few packages so I can shoot pics for a BIG fight scene later in the book, as wel as the chronological next scene lol Jeff of the Miniacs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSpiderX Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 That is a very interesting character that morphs into Fury. I can't really put my finger on it, but he looks oddly familiar! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
