Fixed the color on them previous ones. Doesn't look so faded out. Just sayin'.

This is a rare one I never finished coloring. The gel pen I was usin' crapped out, and I was unable to find the same shade of blue.

I use a lot of the same imagery (or Gawd forbid we say "symbols", right?) over and over again. The bird guys, as kmajor said last page, are definitely plague doctor inspired. The pins stickin' in stuff, the tags, the little guys, decapitation, coffee cups, cutlery, etc.- I have no idea where they come from. Well, at first. But eventually I figure out why- or my brain invents a reason to go along with what my hand wants to draw. In any case, it's all part of what my art-theory-poisoned mind can't help callin' a "visual lexicon". Mmhm.
