Or a demon from hell.
My original intent was to make this WAY more Frazettaesque, but the time constraints of a weekly comic forced me to simplify this splash page a goodly bit. Still, I believe it packs a punch, and is impactful. And to be honest, I enjoy the more sparse approach. I think I learn more working with angles, shadows, and simplicity as opposed to hyperdetail. Gives it more emotion and energy too, I think.
A Facebook Contest!
Original art, approximately 7x10 on 11x17 bristol board
Want to own the original art? Awesome! Here’s the deal.
If at least 5 people SHARE this week’s comic on Facebook within the first week of its posting I’ll put each of their names into a drawing, with the winner getting the original art, pictured to left. The pen & ink artwork is approximately 7×10 inches on 11×17 blue lined bristol board, and is completed in COPIC multiliners and #100 Black COPIC marker. I’ve not signed it, so if you’d like it personalized in some way, I think I can handle that. 
My Facebook page which should have the link to the comic you’ll want to share, is here.
I hope to also do contests for Twitter and Deviant Art in the future, as well as of course a few for the site itself, but it’ll all kind of depend on how this one plays out.
Good luck!
I see he prefers Remingtons. I’m more of a Colt fan. Usually a 1861 Colt Navy.
Well spotted! It’s an 1858 Remington. I chose it mostly because they’re .44s, so more boom. I also like the simple lines.
If you really wanted more boom you should have gone with the Colt Walker. That beast used a musket charge. Also was in .44.
Or for real fun a Lemat would have done nicely. Available in .42 and 8 shot cylinder with a 20 gauge center barrel.
Well, we’re really showing how much more you know about the subject than I.
It’s obviously something about which you have a great deal of knowledge, and are passionate about. Which is awesome. I’m going to keep your comments as notes.
