Description

I've owned the original pencils for this piece for many years, and it dawned on me that I could easily drop a digital scan into my MARIONETTE template, to see how it might look as a 'fake cover.'

I've thought about getting someone to ink it for me for some time, but I finally just broke down and decided to ink it myself. Much glaring and other types of procrastination ensued, but I did eventually finish.

I have a few issues with my line strength, but they can't really be resolved without much practice, and I just don't have that in me at my age. But it turned out okay.

Looks as good as anyone could hope for in a recreation. All the right parts are finely delineated for clarity and the black metallic reflective shine is very strong on that arm out front.

Great job for being a fake inker. You should try your hand at being a fake architect as well.
