Description
Book cover artwork for a collection of scifi short stories. If you are wondering what the glowing alien text on the floating platform says... it reads 'Please remember to wear pants when sitting here'. Clearly you are not the only one who can't read alien hieroglyphs
Pencil sketch, painting in photoshop.

Somehow photographically realistic subsurface scattering, somehow the smoothness and flair of an illustration... I feel like your knowledge of skin and all its particulars must be brimming at the seams to make each colour/sat/brightness choice here read so right, and yet so effortless and full of style.

See I prefer the heated floating platforms to avoid that first moment of "Owww" when one sits down...

Thats because you like to read the instructions first... even if they are written in alien hieroglyphs

Wise hieroglyphs indeed - I'm delighted she neglected to read them...

I'm thinking her tuchas is regretting the fact she didn't read them about now... that seat looks pretty cold from here!

Maybe a friendly spanking may help her to warm those cheeks up a little?

Fascinating! Really cool, and I'm impressed with her collection of tattoos. I like the dead astronaut, and I love the tattoo of this scene on her thigh. Very creative!

Thanks! I've always been fascinated by the whole picture within a picture within a picture thing (or as the french call it 'mise en abime').

I suppose if it were a book with a collection of short stories about the Czechoslovakian agricultural trade her tattoos would look quite different... or maybe not. Those Czechoslovakian agricultural traders have some wild and colorful times.

Now I need a book of Czechoslovakian agricultural trader tattoo art on my bookshelf.... and I blame you

I agree with the poster comment.
This looks like an amazingly professional version of like a Yes album cover or something. XD
Stunning work, LD. The details are legendary.

I have a book of Roger Dean illustration and album cover art around somewhere... haven't looked at it for years. Glad you like... and maybe I will make it into a poster or something
Cheers my friend.

Totally. It has Roger Dean written all over it.
Maybe that's what the footnote is on those alien hieroglyphics.
XD
You're amazing, brother,
