The Pit (work in progress)
Posted: September 28, 2017 Filed under: Uncategorized Leave a commentWork continues on “People of the Pit” despite interruptions for other projects and life stuff. According to Merritt’s story, the protagonist discovers a gigantic pit in the wilderness… the bottom of which hides an ancient civilization. My drawing probably doesn’t make the pit big enough — “Imagine the Grand Canyon five times as wide with the bottom dropped out.” In my defense, I wanted to make the narrator visible in the frame (there he is in the lower left hand corner)… if I had made the canyon any bigger, I fear he would have just been a dot when this finally gets printed.
I’ve never done such a text-heavy thing before… my hands are tired from all the lettering.
