Suicide King for Steve's Book

Suicide King

Just a quick cell phone pic. I was so excited by everyone else's work, I had to share a peep at what I'm doing.

And I'm very very sorry. About that crown. Yeah, not so shiny and metallic looking as I hoped. I kept realizing my mistakes after I made them. I've painted a fair bit with watercolors, but I think this might well be my first one in over 20 years. Well, something had to be first, though why I picked what was supposed to be the BEST piece in the series to get the rust out, I'll never know.

Amazing! I cannot wait to see your work up close, in the actual book(s). If this is you "getting the rust out," well, shucks... I'm such a hack.

First Mike's DUI theme & now you with the Suicide King... Happy Holidays everyone, ha ha ha!
