I was working on page 31 and needed to work out some color schemes. I drew out a quick copy of the tone hues of every named character who’s appeared in the first chapter, to ensure that this one character I was drawing for the first time had a distinct tone profile.

When I showed it to Nick, he said “That should be a shirt!”. So I edited it a little. What do you think – would you want to wear something like this? I’d probably clean it up a little bit, but I’d still keep the character art sketchy and sloppy and super-loose… (Click on the thumbnail for a closer view.)

Also, remember: we still have the classic leaping Absinthe shirt available! Everyone will ask you who that stylish raccoon girl is and why she’s stealing stuff.
