DREDDED rejection.
The cover that likely won't come to pass. Someone up the chain at 2000 AD thought it was "all a bit pumped-up Frank Miller style" and didn't fit what they wanted to do. In any event it's a real shame because I REALLY wanted to do this cover, but I'm still flattered I was asked . Maybe I'll finish it for the sketchbook this year.

Ah c'mon Tharg! Try something different. Looks great to me man.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Dec. I'm not happy but I'm not angry. It happens to everyone I guess. I just really wanted to do it.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that it's not what they're going for. But I'm not gonna lie, part of me thinks they're crazy. I think this is awesome!
ReplyDeleteTo gritty for 2000 AD. Maybe resubmit with Dredd holding a bunny, rainbows shooting out of his ass whilst riding a pink unicorn?
ReplyDeleteThanks guys. C'est la vie I suppose.
ReplyDeleteAdjust the color pallette maybe?
ReplyDeleteTharg has lost his punk pretensions and settled into a sedate middle-age it seems.
ReplyDeleteA shame as I miss the gleeful rawness of the old-school 2000AD.
A fine cover. My sympathies.
