Artist's Comments

just a quick one really,

Part of the climax to book three in the Wheel of Time, where Matrim is making his way across the roof tops of Tear, and as a thought, he remembers the fireworks throwing him off balance at one point (see bundle strapped to back), i thought the whole scene here was amusing, especially when the Aiel turned up :D


(i loved the way they all came together in the same place at the end, very clever :) )

p.s. yes i have spent the last few days aging the characters, so now they should look 20/21 (as where i am in the series) and not 15\16... it was beginning to bother me

Keep up the GREAT work!

I love the movement... very animated illustration! The colours depict night so beautifully as well.

I like how you drew Tear. Looks nice! ^^ I remember that scene. tDR is my fav book in the series along with KoD. And i love the Mat-arc of this book the most!

..damn all that trouble he went through trying to save those snotty girls.. and not even getting a "thank you" from them! XD

anyway, great job on the scene! ^^

Excellent perspective! And I love the flailing arms; very animated. x)

You should've gone to China, you know, 'cause I hear they give away babies like free iPods. You know, they pretty much just put them in those t-shirt guns and shoot them out at sporting events.

This is great!! You pulled off the perspectives and the motion lines are faint enough to serve there purpose and not seem to distracting. I love the expression and the dark colors. Great job!

Yay! Mat + explosives = great fun!

Didn't he have his stick up there with him?

I also enjoy the curvature of the horizon.

Unforgivable. Such ignorant people. This calls for arson.
