A concept for Lord English I’ve had laying around for a while. The thought of him showing up soon in the comic prompted me to actually get off my ass and do something with it. Aw crap there’s no read more for photo posts! Sorry for the wall of text.

I put a stupid amount of thought into this design. His height of course had to be tall enough for the Cairo Overcoat to fit properly, but I also wanted him to be proportionate to Doc Scratch the way a ventriloquist is to their dummy, albeit a rather large one. At the time I drew this Aradiacestor hadn’t been unveiled, so I incorporated the only two direct servants’ designs, via his vest, cravat, and dress shirt. As for his head or lack thereof, I thought a being of nothing but destructive energy was appropriate. Also lack of any sort of identity would be a good troll move to everyone who’d been trying to figure out which among the already introduced cast could possibly be Lord English - I imagine Hussie would pull something like that.

Also 1,000th post! I was saving it just for this.
