Great companion piece to the original cover art! I'm already picturing this in one of your custom frame displays along with the pencils and inks.
Yes! My cgc book signed by Neal is back at CGC getting signed by Jim Lee / Scott Williams / Alex Sinclair, but once I get it back, I will be framing the original line art + color guide + cgc book together for sure. Still have to figure out exactly how to layout (whether vertical or horizontal), but Ruben (my framer) will have a good eye to help me figure that out!
I expected nothing less! 😉 Can't wait to see it all put together.
Even back in the 70's, Adams was experimenting and opening up the playbox of color palettes that he learned from commercial art to utilize on newsprint and comic covers which had been in the dark ages of technology. Many of the techniques he uses today are not cutting edge computerized, but give a natural flow and blend like a painter would.
