Artist's Comments

Not much to say here, cover design for the novel "Good Omens' by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett. I've seen various different editions of the novel and none of the covers have ever done it for me, so I decided to play with illustrator and make a cover. This is one of my first big vector projects.

So on the left we have Aziraphale, the bookworm angel, and on the right we have Crowley, the yuppie demon.

That is awesome! I love the simplicity and the shapes of their bodies, it fits the characters so well. Aziraphale's wings are so cool. *fav!*

Wow. Wow wow wow. This is great! I love the stylized characters and the colors are wonderful.

Good lord, girl! I'm in love with your style. I definitely wouldn't mind seeing this on the cover of the next edition!

(Why is there an "S" on Crowley's tie?)

Woah, how much do I love Aziraphale's pose? This is so stylized....it's sassy and swanky and fun, just like the novel itself! Wonderful work!

commented on lower_tadfield, wanted to say again over here - absolutely delightful :D love the rubbery cartoon styling and the colours and just everything... aziraphale's pudgy tummy and fiery wings are really doing it for me ;)
:iconfudge-1:
Aziraphale's hair is simply great. Looks a bit like Loki's, but I'm not complaining. The costumes are simply great, especially Crowley's pinstripe suit. And I agree with Leuke: Azzy's wings are amazing. And I love the way Crowley's tail is just sneaking into Aziraphale's frame. Flash bastard.

Excellent cover.

Wow, this is gorgeous! You have a really unique style. I love Aziraphale's wings/hair that hint at him being the angel with the fiery sword. Both their outfits are brilliant.
