Crowdfunded Illustration: "Without Fail"

meeksp has done an exciting sketch illustrating my Torn World story "Without Fail."  It makes clever use of depth-perspective in which the foreground (at the top of the page) is above  the background (at the bottom of the page). meeksp has also registered at Torn World; if this sketch gets enough comments and/or donations to justify a round of refinement, she plans to submit it there.  More sea monster art, yay!  Please go check it out and let us know what you think.  There's a donation button at the bottom of the post if you are so inclined.

"Without Fail" is in front of the Canon Board currently, and should be close to approval.  I just need to find time to check the comments and see if there's anything I need to tweak.  It's a story about warsailor Brelig and his adventures on the cruise ship Wavebiter.  As you can see from the illustration, Torn World doesn't make for smooth sailing.

Previously meeksp did this charming sketch of my Origami Mage poem "unfolding wings."  Both the original rough and the update are posted, and now there is a new detail image showing the Origami Mage and the beggar.  (Detail images are a new perk; we get one for every $10 in tips on a given cleaned-up sketch.)  Tips on this one are currently at $10, thank you for your support of the artist.
