Other Worlds cover for Comics Forge

I was asked to do a new cover for a limited edition comic from Comics Forge collecting three of Justin Zimmerman's Other World's stories (one of which I drew). The comic is the first in a series of books coming out called Comics Forge Presents that showcase indy comic book types like Justin and me. The art direction was pretty simple: "sexy space lady fighting a  monster". This is what I came up with.

The inked drawing

11x17, watercolor and colored pencil on Arches hot press
sold

And finally, the painted image. This was painted with watercolor with a little bit of colored pencil for highlights. I don't have a title for it...so I've been calling it: 

SEXY SPACE SIREN TRIUMPHS OVER INTERGALACTIC CEPHALOPOD!!

Its fun to take a break from my kid comic stuff to do some high brow art like this.

This is great, and titles don't come much snappier. I like it!
