Title: January Bonus: Travel Plans (Alt Artwork)
Post by: Daphne on January 22, 2016, 05:18:13 pm
The January 2016 bonus is Travel Plans, artwork by Mystic Mind.

"Wait," you say. "There was already a title Travel Plans?"

Yes.

So, the whole story is long and complex, but we ended up with two separate sets of artwork for Travel Plans. There's the artwork we ended up using, and then there's this artwork. It's lovely, but the artist was... preoccupied with other jobs, I guess? In any event, it would be a shame to hide this work from the world, so there it was!

Yep!

Blessing in disguise.  This is good, but your published art is better.

I'd agree with that.

Beautiful art.
I think I like the originally-published art better, but it varies a bit scene by scene. I think what tips it is that the first set of art portrays MC better in the faces/eyes. (Blank eyes on the final page aside.)
Great bonus!

I agree with the others that the artwork is good but the the original published version is generally better - and more accurate (BA livery, the union flag, and not using a prohibited number plate on the taxi - although that could perhaps be put down to whimsical humour...)

We've all really been spoilt this week!

The reactions do indicate a deeper trance, and there's also the background spirals where as in the second the only cue is the raised finger.
Neither comic has legal number plates. But the women are way more attractive in this one. Plus they retain their pupils. Only my opinion, obviously, but I'm right and you're all wrong.
Indeed the hair styles are more ... lively, I guess.  Take the banker for example: the way letting her school-marmy hair down marks a delightful transition that the straight haired business casual version lacked.

There's pros and con to both.

I'm surprised it was taken down after only 10 days up. Doesn't it usually stay up for 2 weeks especially when it is posted so late in the month?

The bonuses always end at the end of the month that they're posted; this can mean they go by in a couple of weeks, yes!
