Pencils for the Grimwood cover

Who knew I'd made a copy of the pencils before I started painting this all those years ago?  I didn't, until I found this halftone stat the other day.

  3. You know looking at the color in this piece reminded me of a cover you did some time ago.

    You've always seemed skilled at great composition and color theory.

    Makes me believe you're a robot. :\

  4. Friends have teased me about that Omicron cover for years. It was a benefit piece and had to be drawn very quickly. I'm not certain, but I think someone else colored it.

    It has quite a bit of violet in it and I sure colored a lot of things that way in the '80's.
