I Built This City Listening to Rock and Roll

Hey! Two posts in two days! It's a New Year's miracle! I've been working on a secret Love and Capes project, which I've variously called "Project Ghost Protocol", "The Project That Dare Not Speak It's Name" and "Project I Can't Tell You." The project is still very much hush-hush, but I thought I'd show some production art from it. I took the opportunity here to draw some new backgrounds for some of the scenes.

My LNC process involves having a library of backgrounds that I can reuse in a variety of locations. These also show a shift in style, as they are not precisely inked with a technical pen, as so much background work is, but instead are inked with brush so that it's a little more lively. At least I think so.

There's a city that, in this case, will be Darkblade's home city of Chronopolis, and a couple shots of buildings for the Downtown Willoughby/Wrigleyville inspired neighborood that Abby's bookstore resides in.

As always, click and embiggen!

It's a city of crime

Based heavily on Greenwich Village

Still reminds me of Downtown Willoughby, though.
