SciFi and Fantasy Art: The Sanguine Widow

As a magical plague ravaged Trillinstad, a widow in a bloodstained evening gown began to lead the people in a revolt, claiming that she could speak to the dead, and hunt down the supposed "necromancer" responsible for the death of the individual. No one knows whether or not this was true, but desparation can breed many followers...

Maybe you could experiment by adding some red on the bloodstained gown for a dramatic effect, it could work or just might ruin it. You’ve managed to combine mechanical pencils with computer generated art quite nicely, usually that combination tend to clash, but here it doesn’t. Interesting and well drawn characters! Matthew W. Gonzales replies: "I'm glad you think it blends well. Personally, I find otherwise. I think the crowd looks more like a flood, lol. If I added red to the gown, I'd probably want to take it out of sepia and into straight black and white."
