this is the style i almost settled on for the novel. it took me forever to even get to that point (because i had originally planned to put myself through the ordeal of working traditionally) and even then, after trying time and time again for a month, i still wasn't satisfied. the style just felt too soft and illustrative and i needed something sharp and bold if that makes sense and so i spent another month trying to get there :')
anyway, here's some concept art from back in april or may
i have chronic wrist pain on my dominant hand let's go🥲
eh good enough
can't find this one book on any illegal website for pdfs and i'm spiralling rn
as a horror fan, i think perhaps the most exciting thing i have to work on regarding the comic is definitely the horror-esc aspects of it - the research is certainly disgusting, but i find the subject of depicting death and decay in art oddly fascinating, having everything to do with taking all the images from the text and making them real(the first scene from the visitation to kemmerich where paul imagines his decaying corpse in the grave with his nails and hair still growing lives in my head rent free so the only way to get rid of it is to make y'all suffer too sorry guys)
Listen ik the 2022 movie isnt great as an adaptation but fuck if the actors didn't have such a great chemistry you mourn them All the same. Also every time i re-read the book All i see are the Paul and Kat from the film and idk how to feel about that. Ramble over.
BRO THIS
to me, one of the strongest aspects of this movie was the actors, i think they did an amazing job, especially felix kammerer, with this being his first film, and worked quite nicely together
i have to say myself that the two mains with their portrayal of kat and paul looked so eerily similar to what i had in my head as i was reading the book that i got creeped out a bit when i saw the movie lmao
march 2023 vs july 2023
