Mystery: A B C
-
I am a fan of dark tale. Last week I decided to write and illustrate alphabet book for it. The story is a series of mysteries. It either has ending or no ending which depends on your interpretation. Here the 3rd order for letter C.

love the light, nicely handled!

Thank you!
here for A

I'm sure i'm not the only one that keeps checking to see if the next letter is done and posted! Love it! - Reminds me of Edward Gorey's " Gashlycrumb Tinies" - wonderfully creepy!
-
Loved the style ( I did learn 3 new words also
)I feel that the cat is too small. I think the hat will note lose prominence if you make him a bit bigger.
Cheers

Love these! the thought of a bed that must be fed is quite terrifying hehe

@Kevin-Longueil Thanks Kevin! yes I'm trying to go for Edward Gorey feel
@sergio Thank you! for the suggestion. I'll try to change it up a bit and see what happen!
@Lynn-Larson Thanks Lynn I'm glad you find that creepy haha. -
B and D have been my favorite so far!
-
Beautiful and dark. Good job.

These are all amazing! I can't pick a favorite!!!

@Naroth-Kean These are great so great- i thought i would mention that one thing that draws my attention in these excellent illustrations is the black box with the nearly white lettering - it really tugs at my attention - just wondering if you have tried putting the lettering directly on the image? - not saying that would be better - i tried greying the black box but i'm not sure that is better also - if it were in a book each illustration could be on the right side of the 2 page spread with your text on the left page ...does that make sense - i think for me the hard straight line of the letter box and the high contrast of the lettering may be too attention grabbing - sorry no real help here but i thought it might be worth sharing

@linsayraecarr Thank you!
@Thrace Thanks Thrace!
@Kevin-Longueil Thanks a lot for sharing the idea, and I think it's great! Maybe i should give it the black bar and illustration borders to disguise their attention. I have not totally decided what font or design yet, I just threw something in there haha. I actually find the Cap very distracting. I'll go do something and I think should design the layout before I continue. Thanks again
