Hi there N D Hill!
Really love your style! Especially the first one, very metaphysical yet surreal and alien! Quite talented in colors and strokes, hope to see more from you!

Cheers :b5:

Dm7: Thanks very much!

Chris: Thanks! That was kind of a new thing for me.

Randis: Thanks, man!

bungy: Thanks! The graphic novel is more of a vehicle for my portfolio as I make no claims to being a decent writer. It's world for me to flesh out with characters, creatures, tech, environments and try my hand at sequential work. The idea is to flesh out a cohesive settings. That said, the idea for the story has been brewing in my head forever as I'm sure every artist here has that one story that they aspire to realize. Mine is about humanity's early stages in colonizing the solar system and a confrontation with god-like aliens that behave like a universal immune system.

That's awesome work there! Bright/vibrant colors yet with a dark twist to them. Freakin' sweet.

Keep rollin' with that awesome work! Got a unique imagination that's definitely executing real well. :44:

Great stuff, your colors are wonderful and there's so clearly a story in each of them. Try studying facial anatomy a bit, the way the heads 'sit' on the figure reads a bit off to me, but maybe that's just me.
