Book 1, Chapter Four: The Olympic Games, Pages 69 and 70
Roars, cheers,
thundering across the hippodrome,
chariot wheels, sweaty men,
a whiff of danger,
the race! It has begun!
The loudest cheer of all
coming from on high at the best view,
is from none other than King Philip himself.
“Come on Laomedon! Come on go go go go”
Chapter Four 069-070
It’s a new chapter already!!
Footnotes:
This new style is based off the contemporary Kerch style variant of red-figure pottery, which features polychromy. Fortunately my normal style is pretty similar to it, so the only changes are a more limited palette, and a process that’s actually informed by the lineless art for Seance Tea Party.
It’s been a while since i adapted a historical style for comics, but I’m having fun!
