A Gentlemen's Pursuit

Cornelius was stricken with strife
And peddled, as though for his life
As Waldorff took aim,
And called him by name,
Shouting “This is for #*@&ing my wife!”


(check my profile for a more detailed version).

pony23 on Sep 27 '07
Oh Yeah! Very dapper!

I love the detailed line work in your design, it gives the image real texture. And being in "hot pursuit" of a gentleman on a penny farthing is a great concept - both funny and charming.

Question: Is that a pocket watch flailing behind the chased man? if yes, nice touch :)

great stuff, lose the hard edge containing the water on the bottom left though so it flows out like the sky, the wall, etc

glad everyone is enjoying this one.
i don't think it's really ripping someone off if you're obvious enough about it. i went through 3 edward gorey books trying to get the textures right, and i'm happy to have gotten it close enough that people are recognizing that.
thanks everyone =)
