cool, will wait... i have been lazy with drawing, but i started work on some carved lamps with a bunch of craftspeople who live in a slum. been riding there every other day, but need to start drawing...
I have a concept for a story. A common gritty and grimy setting is post-apocalyptic. I'm thinking a little twist on this by making a post-war. Two sides were at war for a long time, and then one side ended the war by unleashing a deadly virus. Within a day, the opposing side was eliminated (the virus would have a suicide gene to prevent it from harming those who unleashed it).
The virus didn't kill everyone, the story is focused on the survivors who are trying to live fending off both raiders and invaders.
but the virus does not in fact have the fool proof suicide gene... the survivors figure this. they know that strains of the virus have mutated and the threat can not only be reversed but also exploited for saving what remains of the original idea of rapprochement that they had worked so hard on, but now its a question of survival...
