Some Steranko comps
I may have put a couple of these up before but the hand image is new to me. At least I don't remember it...

These are from "Unseen Shadows"? I love Steranko's commentary on the creation of the covers. Two key takeaways: he works "two up" is twice the size of the finished product and he preferred still gessoed Masonite over stretched canvas.
ReplyDeleteI prefer gessoed Masonite as well. No give in the surface. As to "Unseen Shadows" I have always wanted to get my hands on one of those sets. Alas, I have to rely on the internet.
