I hate doing backgrounds, it's just... boring as all hell.
Anyway this is the Chapter One title image for Raven Wolf. I'm starting to get used to this style of character drawings, but I could still use some more work I think.
It was actually a little difficult to come up with a picture that would relate to the chapter without being a repeat of something that was gonna eventually happen. I eventually came up with the idea of Eve and Fitz doing some sort of task while working at Eve's father's museum. (As it is apparent in the chapter that they work there doing odd jobs for Eve's father when he is short staff, which he always is) Which resulted in the image of the two in custodial clothing dusting off an exhibit.
I'm actually happy with how it turned out, I was gonna do more work on the background but found that it was starting to take the focal point off of the two characters, which is something that I did not want. I may end up blurring the background to make them stand out more but I think they pop out just fine as is. Of course that may just be me since I've been working on this for hours.
Eve and Fitz from my story Raven Wolf.
Raven Wolf
Due to human negligence the world as we know it has ended and been reborn. The animal spirits that guide man giving them the forms of animals so that they would be able to survive in this new wilderness. Though now carrying the form of beasts man has not forgotten the place they once had, as an existence greater then just what nature wanted of them, an existence above all.
Those that worked to gain their humanity are known as domestics, while those who wished to follow the rolls the spirits had given them were known as wilds. Both groups grew arrogant and hateful of one another, the wilds saw the domestics as selfish monsters, for they were returning to the ways that had once destroyed the world, while the domestics saw the wilds as primitive beings afraid of progress, they no better than wild animals.
The raven and the wolf spirits grew tired of the destruction and fighting, and sided with the wilds in their ideals, the domestics only capable of further destroying nature. In their anger they marked a tribe of wilds with a curse, they being removed from the sacred circle of life, unable to hunt or grow their own food, their souls never able to move on while their bodies are unable to return to the earth when they died. The curse upon them only broken once the domestics are gone once and for all. The cursed tribe now known to all by the name of the spirits whom cursed them. ‘Raven Wolf’
