To pro marker, or not to pro marker

So lately, I was introduced to an adorable piece of software called Fire Alpaca. Very similar to Paint Tool Sai but with not as many brush options. This is mainly down to the fact that the software is fairly new. That being said I'm enjoying using the software to quickly get my ideas visualised. The more I use it the more I'm questioning whether to integrate it into my final character designs instead using my lovely pro markers. Perhaps I could do the line work in Fire Alpaca and colour with promarkers or do the line work with fineliners and pro markers, then go on to colour on fire Alpaca. These are the choices I'll have to make pretty soon!

Alternate Frankenstein Covers

Here's a little bit of a different angle. So I've been exploring with a wilting flower idea for Frankenstein however I like the idea of featuring body parts on the cover. I've formed the image of a flower-like shape using a human heart. The stem is an artery with bolts sticking out like thorns.  For the back cover ive used simply imagery and left a space for the blurb. These were both done with letraset/windsor and newton promarkers and derwent inktense blocks.
