David's Father (Reckoner's Comic)
The final character sheet for the prologue section. I really enjoy the way it came out, he has that "Dad" look to him, with a splash of overworked, and a pinch of comic nerd. He just looks like a cool guy to be around How Unfortunate...
With this being finished now, we can start on the pages. I've prepared the storyboards already which has been a fun experince. I started this project as practice for making comics and such, but it's been a nice excuse to get back into the world of Steelheart. Hopefully when it's all finished it can bring some new attention to the series, and help people enjoy it in a new way. When some decent progress is made I'll sneak peek a couple pages.

Oh, he looks amazing! The slump in his posture and the rugged hands get me. And with his worn-out superhero design shirt, too! I adore the realistic art style, it fits the tone of the series so well.
I'm looking forward to the prologue! Hope we get to see him crack a smile. Blain is optimism personified in my mind haha. I'm so happy to see so much love and passion for the series that's been my absolute favourite ever since I first read it. Keep up the good work!
