About This Style

A black and white illustration style with the feel of inked manga pages, gothic graphic novels and film noir stills . Everything is drawn in deep blacks, clean whites and soft gray tones, with a fine grain over the whole image. Faces and eyes come out sharp and expressive, fabric and lace keep fine detail, and shadows stay heavy and dramatic. It handles single portraits, full body scenes, multi panel manga pages, and empty atmospheric scenery with no characters.
