Additonal Information:
Creation of this peace took around 4 hours (Or somthing like that, I honestly don't time myself). This peace was created for use in my Video Game Theroy & Culture class project. Although the criteria was rather vauge at the time, we were supposed to pick a comic book (provided by the teacher, most of which were obscure) and then write up (what was essentually) a sales/idea pitch for a game that involved at least 5 key elements from your comic book.

In my case, I ended up with Soulfire Issue #0 Season #3 (not the easiest place to start, in the middle of a series). As we were only allowed to base our pitch off of the key essence of the single issue provided (not the entire series), things were really rough at first. But eventually I identified a good 5-6 key elements that made up this issue, the most prevelent one being the engulfing of the world in a shroud of darkness. Not your horror-movie darkness but rather a slowly encroaching one, not much unlike how things seem to be in the current state of the world.

Anyways, point and case... This picture was created to be a "prop" for my presentation in class.

Artist's note:
In hindsight... I really hate the shade of blue that I had used for the background, it's way too bright and contrasts a little too heavily with the rest of the image. Also, although the image is rather abstract, it's supposed to portray a darkness slowly swallowing the sun."
