Description

Another fantastic little pandemic sketch from Marc. I guess everyone had masks on their minds (and hopefully faces) this past year. Particularly interesting is the exposure of light that he plays with to highlight the nose behind the mask.

Superb! The detail is tightly concentrated on where the focus should be. The simple single lingering line down the front breaks that illusion of realism to snap us back into our reality.

But a quick micro-dose later and we're back in the fantasy!

Missed out, but I pretyped a stern complaint letter I will send to Felix's manager.

What?!? It's still there? I better dial down the dosage like you suggested.

"Normal humans wearing Covid masks", a commission theme I would never have dreamed up in a million years. Nice!
