👻 GHOSTS OF NAMELESS ISLAND 2 👻
hey hey! 

I've pretty much finished everything! And I have no real notes since everything is almost exactly the same as the sketches. 

I've tweaked the cover colors just ever so slightly and prepared the back of the book too! 

I don't remember if I did the spine last time or if I just delivered the title, but once everything is approved I'll send you the high res files and we can figure it out! 

here we go: 
not much to say here, but I figured I'd leave enough space for the text on the back this time :) 
INTERIOR ILLUSTRATIONS
I actually have no notes here at all since they're exactly the same as the sketches :D just better looking! 
super happy with how this last one came out!

hey hey! 

here we go! a boatload of interior sketches :D 

there was only one that wasn't clear to me, but it's just one of the header images, so that shouldn't pose too much of a problem. 

thanks again for providing the list and having me draw lots of wacky animals! 
there are notes under the images if applicable. 
let's go! 
INTERIOR SKETCHES
01 Nothing too exciting here, the chapter nr can go in the opening of the tent. 
02 same story. The circle is exactly in the same spot as the buoy in book 1. 
3: this is the only one I'll need some more info/ideas for. the previous book had 2 chapter headers, so is this one really necessary? (just checking)
4: my best drawing to date
5: no notes.
6: pretty much looks like my laundry machine to be honest 
7: here we go! Capybaras playing bocce ball (I'll be in Italy in 2 weeks, I'll keep my eye out for big rodents playing there) 
8: we could have these in a different configuration if it works better for the layout. 
9: this would make a great tattoo
10: I've been waking up at 4 in the mornings lately (for no reason whatsoever). so I feel poor Gus
11: There was no info about what the principal looks like, but we can change him if he turns out to be a white man with blonde hair :) 
12: I wasn't quite sure if you meant this with her expression, but that's easily fixed! 
13: I imagined Raj to be a hippy sort of guy? did I get it right? Raj sounds like an Indian name to me but I wasn't sure, so if we need to change his ethnicity just let me know! 
14: No notes
15: we could show Gus full bodied here, but I figured the rest of his body didn't really add much, so this will probably save some space 
16: no notes except that I want one as a pet
17: the description of this scene was a bit confusing to me, so I hope I got this right. 
18: no notes
19: I love this one, I feel it's pretty roaring 20's 
20: No notes
21: No Notes
22: we could split these up and have them line different pages? could be cute :) 
23: no notes
24: what can I say? 
25: what can I say again? (besides that I love both of these spots) 
26: no notes
27: ok, maybe this is my best drawing yet... 
28: no notes 
29: no notes
30: no notes
31: is Gus supposed to hold loose hairs? or is the hair still attached to a (dead) body? if it's the latter we could just have the hair extend to the edges of a page so we won't see an actual corpse in a kids book :D
32: Raj has that big-Shaggy-Energy
33: Miles as a ghost
34: no notes 
35: you asked for a dramatic end scene, I think you've got it :D

hey hey hey! 

without further ado, here's the cover for book 2! 

I actually have no notes whatsoever :D 
👇 PREVIOUS UPDATES 👇
heya! 

I've got a sketch for the cover for book 2! 
it's still in a very rough shape, but I think you figured out how I work now :) 

there are some notes/questions under the image! 
I'm not sure if Miles will be in book 2 as he wasn't requested to be on the cover, but I added him anyway, don't want to leave him out. 
I thought it would be cool to add some circus-flair around the title and other text, besides in the actual illustration itself. I experimented with a border around the image too, but i felt it got too far removed from the cover of book one. 

one thing I was curious about was if the book will have a sub-title? my guess it it will have? because we'll need to keep some space reserved for that too somewhere. 

as always feel free to give me any notes or ideas you might have! :)
