My other comic: Scandinavia and the World
The Letter
A commission made for http://rythmear.deviantart.com/
He requested a picture of his character Umbrella Man delivering a letter to a sleeping Niels.
As he put it: “To make sense of this picture, it would seem Umbrella Man is delivering a message to Niels, something which may very well seem utterly trivial at the time he reads it - but someday will cause something important in his life, for better or for worse.”
The umbrella is supposed to look fuzzy, like it's not quite right. In fact, I tried to give the whole thing a slightly dreamy feeling, as if Niels is somewhat aware that someone else is there, but at the moment he think he's just dreaming.
I like how the gasmask ended up almost looking like a cranium.

I like how the discreet use of red seems to bind this image together. The red letter, the umbrella's red side and Umbrella Man's red tie. I really like looking at this image

Thaat man reminds me of a character in a tv-program that I found quite scary (I think it was one of those running over the summer holidays.). On another note, I thought the way they treated an arrow wound to the shoulder in the same program (the bandage was loose and didn't seem likely to hold.) utterly ridicoulus.
