Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Faith (Patreon)

Looks like they're doing a one-off for Faith in the Buffyverse over at BOOM! studios.  They asked me to do a cover way back when I was doing my character variants for the main series.  I just didn't know when I'd be called back or what exactly the use of the cover would be.  The amazing editor, Jeanine Schaefer gave me this prompt: motorcycle girlfriend.  And we took it from there!

I've included the original scan of my "watercolor flats" and the initial sketches I sent in for approval.  As y'all know, for professional pieces, I do my watercolors up to a certain level of finish, and then take it into Photoshop and Procreate to add dimension and depth, fix color and value, also edit any mistakes I made.  This one required a LOT of futzing with value and lighting.  There are definitely things in here I couldn't have achieved with watercolor.  Hope you like!
