SciFi and Fantasy Art: Simon Mooncalf--Memory, Sorrow, Thorn

Just a sketch made in class one day. This is the main character from Tad William's excellent series 'Memory, Sorrow, Thorn'. This is a younger Simon than is presented in most of the story, and therefore the 'Mooncalf'. (10-3-99)

This is definately the 'Mooncalf' Simon before his monumental adventure through Osten Ard. Excellent portrayal.

Very nice, really. I've just finished to read the trilogy, and I was surfong the web. You know, Simon's portraits in the covers of the books seem weird to me. I never imagined himlike that. But your draw, in my opinion, is the very image of his personality (at the beginning, of course). Love!

Very nice draw really, i can only follow the others, that's the way he looks in my mind. However it reminds me of the japanese Manga-Style. But nevertheless, it's great he has the expression of future wisdom in his eyes.

A german Seoman Fan ;-)

PS: In Germany he called "Simon Mondkalb" exactly tranlation of Mooncalf later he called "Schneelocke" what means snowcurl , when I try to translate ;-)

:-) Jennifer D. McCallum replies: "That's so neat! Thanks for sharing. And I -do- tend to have a manga/anime influence...."

He sure looks like a mooncalf. =) Very good work.
By the way, thanks for the comment in my gallery. I had no idea that Tad Williams was an artist. =)

:-) Jennifer D. McCallum replies: "I think his neck is a bit long, but oh well--just showing the gawkiness of youth perhaps..."

Great trilogy, great picture.
It has been said in earlier posts...the portrait captures Simon's innocence.

i must say that your depiction of Simon Mooncalf is EXACTLY what i imagined he would look like, i am very impressed, and jealous! youve really captured the character, down to the tee. really, very cool. (and very cool of you to share your work with everyone!)

Hey, this is cool. Last year in seventh grade, The Dragonbone Chair was my absolute favorite story and I did three book reports on it. My friends didn't understand the obsession I had with the characters. That picture really looks like how I envisioned him. Good job. ^_^

He looks about three or four years younger than I imagined him in the books, though. He DOES have a mooncalf expression on his face, though.
