Description

Cover art for my final project in L.A. class. The assignment was to create a graphic novel, six pages minimum, about an event in your life. It didn't have to be significant but it did have to be at least based on a true story.

My graphic novel is based on something that happened when I was backpacking in the Negev over the summer. We were climbing what was essentially a canyon wall, and it was really difficult, and I thought I was going to give up, did I mention it was difficult. But then I had a "WWKD?" (what would Kamina do?) moment. That single change in perspective turned the entire trip around for me.

I won't tell you exactly how I'm portraying this, but I bet you can guess where it's headed. ;D I'll be sure to post it when I get done. (Still a wayse to go, I have nine pages to draw and ink orz)

Anyway, the cover's based on a Gurren Lagann DVD cover (I am never going to run out of ways to parody the official art [/originality fail]). That would explain all the fancy cloth folds, which weren't a pain in the ass this time. :thumbsup: (making the Gurren symbol fit to those folds, however...) The title design was inspired by this logo.

.... aaaaanyway I think I've talked at you long enough.

Epicccccccccccc :iconiloveitplz:

I've had those "What Would *insert character's name here* Do?" moments before too! But I never told anyone because they would think I'm crazy :XD:

But anyway, the pic turned out great :'D
