THE CLIFF, Book 5: "The King" - character process sketches

As I may have mentioned, while Mutt Blue was away in Varanasi helping Poopsie the Penguin find Carlos Brown's killer in THE CLIFF, Book 4: "Heart of Brightness," his friends on the Nexus Island between dimensions seem to have aged differently than him--which is to say, for him it's just been a week, but for his former adventurer friends it's been a decade and a half... fifteen years of life gone by.

These process sketches were done to test the "fifteen years down the line" look on Torvek Rotinski, Partridge Bark and Rabbit... and the passage of merely a week for Mutt.

THE CLIFF, Book 5: "The King" - pages 10 & 11

Soon, I will stop posting updates about THE CLIFF, Book 5: "The King," and start posting news about the prequel to THE CLIFF -- a graphic novel project which I am jumping to in order to complete the thesis for my Master's of Architecture degree which I left off 7 years ago  -- called appropriately enough, ARCHITECTURE DEPARTMENT.

Here are the last two completed pages of THE CLIFF, Book 5... next will come some process sketches.  And then... what made the Cliff?  And who?  And why?  Some questions which are sort of addressed in the prequel, plus the destruction of the world by flood and the origin of the bagel.

More news on that to come soon.  Before I do, please rest assured that THE CLIFF will finish in due time, and I will post the last few pages I've done before switching horses midstream, jumping penguins midline and playing pattycakes in the dark.
