The week before last,
I began posting some of the concept images that artist
Duncan Kay has produced for our comics work together. In that post I covered his designs for
The Unleashing of the Ineffectual, the strip we collaborated on for
Something Wicked, and here we have a handful of designs for another story, the alread-much-posted-about
Endangered Weapon B, which ended up being drawn (and painted, and lettered) by Bob Molesworth.
First up we have some designs for the man known only as the Professor. Imagine a really sordid version of Allan Quatermain, or an elderly Indiana Jones with his own airship and mechanically-assisted grizzly bear - if that makes any sense. Which it doesn't. Did I mention the Professor worships the Norse gods and wants to summon zombies? Anyway, I strongly recommend clicking on that second picture to read Duncan's frankly insane notes.
The last image, right, features Tilly Tobega, the Professor's Polynesian pilot, computer engineer and kidnapped prospective future wife. Tilly is kind of the voice of reason aboard the airship Valhalla, in so much as there's any reason at all in the world of
Endangered Weapon B.
Which, as you've probably realised by now, there really isn't.
Lastly,
here's a link to Duncan's blog, which I have a vested interest in recommending because these days he's mostly posting concept art for our forthcoming projects.
This week: everyone's favourite irrate fish-god, Cthulhu.
