Thank you I love to collect illustrated fairytale books, my favourites are those illustrated by Rackham, Bauer, Goble and so many others from XIX and early XX century. When I do the ink doodles I rarely plot much and then I scan different ones and "construct" more complex illustrations with the computer though many stay like this in traditional form. Some of them for the new album I overdid the digital, and my friend and well known illustrator Charles Vess (Stardust, Sandman...) told me Pris, you need to keep the line, or if not it becomes too polished, so some I'll leave digital but for ohers I'll be trying some place in-between
I remember also in the fairytale books there are smaller black and white illustrations along with the text and then the full colour plates, so will be some of the sort. I have done around 30 of the 70 drawings I want to do for the third album, been lazy last while but encouraged to give it a final push
