Jonas. 

More Book of the New Sun exploration– Jonas acts as a literary combination of the mythical “Wandering Jew” archetype, the traveling lone samurai, and of competing sci-fi elements like robotics and time-travel. 

Also, I post to Twitter often. I’ve all but abandoned Tumblr, so please check on my work over there instead.

A couple creature design explorations from The Book of the New Sun. Man-Apes and Alzabo up-top, the Salamander on bottom.

A recently finished character design from Gene Wolfe’s Book of the New Sun, this time, Agilus, carrying the deadly Avern flower before his and Severian’s duel at the Sanguinary Field.

-The Shadow of the Torturer, chapter XVII, “The Challenge”.
