Artist's Comments

This is my first attempt at cell-shading. Fear it. I appear to have been peer-pressured into trying this style. Buwa.

This is a lycanthrope from the manga series "A Midnight Opera". I've always liked this series, mainly because of the drawings and the characters--pretty cool looking things going on :D Hehe.

I pretty much winged it as far as shading goes and kind of made up the colors ^^; This is how I imagine this guy'd look if he were in color. Or real. If you see a shadow slide by some dark night, you might want to do a double-take; this guy doesn't look like he'd be lurking in the dark just to discuss global financing with you. ;3

Approx. 5 hours
Pencil, Photoshop CS2

Okay, it looks cheesy, but it's really awesome. I swear, papa bear.

the irony of the situation is that of the jester who's insanity proves that he is the most sane among the chaos of those surrounding him - escaping their self-made asylum for utter completion that is existing ^.^ viva la drinkin da ketchup!

It's awesome! You drew him looking positively evil. Very cool! Those hairs of his must have been a nightmare

He looks like he'd be good at global financing, but I think he'd rather eat you :(

Thanks :D I think the shadows are a bit too dark, but eh.

Glad you liked it :D

I have a teeny question:
I don't mean to insult you if you are Steinbach, but if you are, is there any clue as to when volume four will be available, please?

This might shock you(being sarcastic),but i am :)

I honestly don't know if there will be other volumes,although i am doing my best to persuade people at tokyopop to let me continue.

If it will continue,i will post the news on my page.
