For what movie (or not) were you working on a heron? I
cannot think of a better way to do dailies than vintage novel

Followed over here from 2d Goggles. Love the book cover sketches, but I gotta say, being from Nebraska, I don’t think Podunk (pop. 47) supports a publishing industry! Grain elevator, gas station and greasy spoon (with enormous pancakes!) is about it.

There was heron in Golden Compass, but it was deemed too charismatic… it kept stealing every shot!

I first saw these when you originally posted them, and had quite forgotten. When you reposted them I was very puzzled, because I had developed a deep conviction that I Read These Books In My Childhood ™.

Well, maybe not the heron one.

That last cover Is fantastic! For some reason, I love titles of the form “[random name] The [random adjective] [random noun]“. I would definitely read about Percy’s adventures, based on the cover alone!

Awe.
I’m from the Yukon!

I just happen to stubble on your site when I typed in “underground drawing” in google. I got some blue sketches.

ANYWAYS, i didn’t get the chance to look around so i dunno if you’re still continuing on with this site. (in five minutes i’ll find out your last update was in 2003)

=P
Cheers!
I feel wicked being from the Yukon right now.
Yay -25 degrees C weather!
