"The Raft"

[Grillslinger]

Here's a drawing from King's sotry, "The Raft". It's always been one of my favorites.

That is very cool Alberto, the wood detail is great.

Was it uploaded to the fan art section in the gallery?

It's been a while since I've read that one.

Is that the story where:

Spoiler:

the main character eats himself to death?

Cool picture btw!

No, that story is Survivor Type.

Thanks, friend!

Great picture, Grillslinger. Thanks for posting.

Thanks for the feedback, everyone! I have a question....but I'd rather only ask those who have read the story. I don't want to spoil the details for anyone who hasn't read it. If you're familiar with the story, click here.

Spoiler:

In the story, the "oil slick" comes up under the raft, and latches on to Deke's foot. It starts crushing and dissolving it so that it can be pulled in through a space between the boards. I'm not sure I've pulled off the effect that I want. Does it look like his foot is being forced through the crack? Or does it just look like it's been torn off? Any feedback on this, and what may be wrong with the effect would be appreciated.

Matt, I'm not sure I know how to do that!

Grillslinger: your picture is great, but answering your question, I'm afraid it's the latter.

I will send you a PM over lunch and we'll look at it.

I really love the picture Grillslinger!

But yes, it looked to me upon first glance that the leg had been cut off.

I REALLY like the drawing though.
