You deserve awesomization.

IF: Clandestine

sparkyfirepants | December 29th, 2008

Paul Revere’s ride was a clandestine operation. Until he started yellin’ and wavin’ fire around, of course.

Another rough sketch from the book. I may post the finished art. I may not. I really can’t say at this juncture.

  • I love how dynamic the sketch is.
  • Indigene
    Very clever, whether you finish it or not, it has the emergency of that historical ride! Hmmm...I believe the word "clandestine" came about during 1790s I wonder if we can really tie Paul in there somewhere with the originality of the word? Well...it's certainly food for thought! Great line work and Happy New Year!
  • Thanks for the comments everyone!

    @PainterWoman It would be fun to get a group of people together to "invade" Bath when they ring the bells. Just for kicks.
  • Great sketch. Would love to see it finished.
  • I just found out that Bath (maine) has a Paul Revere Bell Ringing "party" for New Year's Eve. I think the clandestine part of THAT will be flasks and tummy warmers.
  • now thats sweet ...hope you do post the finished piece
