SciFi and Fantasy Art The Hive by David Mitchell


	This ward consists of the worst slums and tenements in Sigil. Most people, be they primes or native cagers, avoid it at all costs.

10 Oct 2003	Natasha S Saunders	Loading... Just... wow. I think you really get across the atmosphere and mood of the area really well. If a place can be said to have mood that is... I'm sure someone out there knows what I mean. Really a very good pic.
18 Nov 2003	Lieuwe Boer	Loading... Finally I'm able to comment, having access to the internet has become somewhat of a rarity for me these days. I like the dark, messy atmosphere here, but the upper part of the drawing probably could have used some more worked-out detail like in your Lower Ward picture, I think it looks a little too messy. I wonder if Valese (if it is indeed her) has anything to do with those dead bodies lying further down the street... David Mitchell replies: " Yes, that is Valese taking a stroll down this Hive street, though I'm really not sure the corpse is her doing. You see, I originally drew this picture to serve as a cover for a short story of mine entitled "The Hive", so the background looks smoggy so I could crudely write in the title with a black marker. She kills quite a few people in this story, and though one of them was in an isolated Hive alley, I originally thought it would end up looking like this. The story's complete now, and I'll put up a link to it. Please read it if you have the chance: http://www.fanfiction.net/read.php?storyid=1604844"
28 Feb 2004	Edwyna D. Hunter	Loading... Just as I sort of imagine The Shades from Terry Pratchetts Discworld novels Wanderers Beware!
10 Aug 2006	Lorraine-Danielle 'Erynn' Donovan	Loading... Nice. And yes, kinda Pratchett-esque. I love the way you've done it, the so... scribbly? There's a word for it that I've forgotten. Anyway, it's lovely and atmospheric.
