This is something I did for a client to bolster my portfolio several months ago. They asked for one more image of something to seal the deal on this book.
I had done a very rough version a few months before, just for fun, however, this needed to be good. Loaded with Dr. Pepper and Indiana Jones playing, I worked that night and went from start to finish. Bed time was around 3 or 4 AM. Up at 6.
I was wiped out the next day but it was fun. Ah, my job :)

Great job, Cory. And I kept that same godawful schedule for too many years...that's why I teach now. I really enjoy seeing your work, and the Landon Snow book looks terrific. Congrats!
This is just fantastic, Cory! I love the lines and the colors. The trees and dancing figures in the background are especially magical. Congrats on the book! :-)
Man. Man. Man. Superb art, Corey. How did you get to be so good, when you're so dang young?

I love the velvety rich colors of his garb (especially that cloak; man, I'd love to have a cloak like that). Thanks for showing the drawing with the final version. They're both fabulous!
This is great! Your work is fantastic! Your use of color and character design/styling is superb.
