IF: Unbalanced

I wanted to colour last week illo,
but we are finally quite at the end of
our children book,only the front and
back cover and lettering and............
Finished!
So we decided to post an old illo, for
IF topic "Unbalanced"....well the guy
in background lost his balance discussing
with a "good"guy....

Your stark black and white comic book style is very effective. I would like to see your kids book when it's finished.

Nice! Ha ha, I was reading the text and thinking, "I sure hope this gun fight isn't part of the children's book project"...

Great image Monica. I love comic art...It is often so dramatic with some dark comedy.
I'm looking forward to seeing the completion of your children's book. Let me know when it is finished.
Good to see you today and thank you for your nice comment at my place.
Have a creative week!:)
