dreamhive kid

here's another cleanup of a pencil rough i did in germany a couple of days ago - it's one of the dreamhive kids, who may or may not appear in this story - towards the very end, to be discovered and rescued by hope.

his name is J.M., short for joshua march - joshua because josh clearly is the inspiration here, and march because all the dreamhive kids are re-named for the month they've been added to the hive, AND because his outfit is an homage to the march hare, courtesy of lewis carroll...

i don't think so...

sorry for the long silence - we're SUPER-busy at Suckerpunch, and i was 'out' for two weeks traveling to germany in what would under normal circumstances be considered a 'vacation', but which this time around turned out to be a somewhat blurry succession overly tight interiors of planes, trains and automobiles - what i DO remember of non-traveling moments was nice, though - good to see the family and good to know that as much as things change, they DO stay the same...

i wasn't all lazy, though - back on my posting schedule with cleaned up stuff i start working on over in the old country, beginning with this hope pin-up, inspired if not directly by one of frank frazettas paintings, then at least by their spirit... :)
