Faux-Fashion Chapter 3 Cover Art

For a while now I entertained the idea of how I could possibly make the cover for my comic more visually attractive for someone to want to come and pick it up at anime/comic convention artist alleys. I had also entertained how amusing it would be to me, personally, to ape a fashion magazine's style. It made sense to try and do something like that for this chapter, though largely with regard to the chapter revolving around Katey, following her day, and the subsequent fall-out from the big surprise.

It was fun throwing together the lettering once all of the art was done; it was almost lazy in a way. Katey's character is big into fashion as a career, so I thought it'd be a unique juxtaposition of having her most aspirational status on the cover, despite the absolute shock and spiral that occurs within the pages.
