I am still sort of working on the concept of this character. One of the books I am working on in the ELECTRIC SADDLES LEATHER COFFINS series is "4 knives 4 crimes." I think this or something close to this concept is going to be the main antagonist.


I imagine a vampire who only exists in negative space and only has a small amount of detail in his person. I think this will be a really cool effect, and I get to stress silhouette and line of action a lot. This is still in the early stages of development, and I for sure have to figure out how I am going to do it in a way that is still going to be easy enough to follow visually, but I am really stoked about the idea.


What are your thoughts?

man he looks sick. I love it! This "splattering colors" thing combined with the vage silhouette outline is really awesome. Good job dude
I bet it's hard to draw in such style

ITSROOSTER responds:

Well luckily I've drawn 200+ graphic novel pages in this style lmao

You might as well have reached through my screen to personally grab my eyes, the colors pop without over saturation thanks to their complements. If I saw that on a shelf I'd pick it up.

Would make a pretty sick over sized poster to.

ITSROOSTER responds:

Thank you that really means a lot! I really do love the sorta desaturated jewel tones tbh.

If you are interested in keeping up with the style and the story I am releasing the first graphic novel in the ELECTRIC SADDLES || LEATHER COFFINS series ina couple months. probably in March on my website.

Man's out there getting frontpaged with one stroke for each day of the week.

ITSROOSTER responds:

Tbh I did NOT expect that lmao. but hey I ain't complaining.

sick af!! love how u created the shape of the character with like negative space. also the splatter and all the angles and lines and textures are so well done. super awesome piece!!

ITSROOSTER responds:

Thank you thank you! I'm a big fan of texture and controlled chaos. :]

I really love this concept, shadowy figures are always some of my favorite designs despite their simplicity, and this is no exception.

ITSROOSTER responds:

I think this is going to be especially cool since I plan on giving him more detail in very specific scenes! just gotta solidify the design a bit... or lack there of lmao.
