Prob. finished on this page, at least for the moment while I get onto something else... It's a very emotive part of the story and I don't want to overwork it visually. It's also the only page in the entire issue that has this look and vibe so good to get it out of the way and know I can get on with the pages which have a more colourful feel to them.
Incidentally the story of the page isn't what it possibly first appears to be. It is... hmmm... Strikes me that it bears some explanation but don't want to give too much away. The story is to do with the repercussions of Little Red Riding Hood being attacked by the Wolf and it seems to me that there is a lot more that could be said if you took the 'and they all lived happily ever after' line away from the original. It's the stuff of nightmares, long and ongoing, and that's where the picture picks up. I did have a small ish debate with an occasional acquaintance on friday at the Boileroom and he admitted that he didn't get it. Ah well, happier pages to come. Well, more colourful anyhow. Although the page after this stars the 'flycos and they're not the nicest of characters. More hopefully soon although have to dash to edit Les Mis now...
