This is a cover I inked for BloodRayne: Red Blood Run #1 for Digital Webbing back in February 2007. It was published in June 2007.

The entire cover was done in brush aside from the posters and the ground texture. This was also my first time trying a wood texture... I wish I'd been steadier at the time so that it would have turned out better. This had been the first thing I completed after major bone surgery on my face.

Inking is a craft that is often overlooked and misunderstood as being a simple matter of tracing. MechAngel proves that as an absolute falsehood with work such as her inks for BloodRayne: Red Blood Run #1. Having a strong sense of depth and lighting, MA manages to push and pull the shapes of this complicated and layered image into perfect clarity, without sacrificing any detail. She knows just where to save the whites and punch the blacks in empty spaces, filled shadows, and line widths themselves, to transform a good pencil drawing to a great inked image that's compatible with color, or perfectly stands on its own as a powerful and dynamic work of art.

Gee, whillikers! I'm really impressed at how detailed this is, but it retains so much depth, and nothing gets lost.
