Love. The. Artists.

Sample works from artists helping me bring "Mehdi" to life.

I love what Hannah has done for me, and her artwork is fantastic. We really work well as a team, and I like what she produces. Here's her final picture of Jon, based on my specifications:


Beautiful. Absolutely *gorgeous* work. I'm also commissioning her for two other characters, Una and Wes. I'd like her to do a final portrait of Una as well, but I'm not sure which setting I'd like to use for her. Again, I'd like the picture to be fairly symbolic and indicative of Una's character and nature, but I don't have any solid thoughts in mind yet.

And here are some other pictures from other equally talented artists. From my dear internet friend Cory (great depiction of Jon, once more):


And from another artist I commissioned, who did some fantastic stills despite not being able to finish (Jon and Una):


And the closer shot of Una, which I love:


I wish she could've finished Una's face! That's exactly the look I was going for with her.

Will there be more artwork? Oh, yes. Expect it. My only wish is that I could find an artist who wouldn't mind taking his or her time creating a book or two with me. I need a professional one, and I'm on the hunt for someone, but I have to be in concert with this artist. We both have to be on the same page for this project to run smoothly, and I'm not sure who has the patience to wait with me through the whole process! :) My dream is to bring "Mehdi" to life...and I'm willing to wait to see it accomplished with no shortcuts.
