Description Saw Lemony Snicket's: A Series of Unfortunate Events Friday night and can I just say how much I love that movie? Now, I don't want any ranting here about how the books were better, etc, etc. I've not read the books yet, though I will now. The movie, however, taken in and of itself I found to be absolutely wonderful with a great dry wit, lovely satirical angle, and brillian art direction, not to mention all of the great performances. Not just Jim Carrey, though he was wonderful. I was really impressed by everyone involved.

Violet, Sunny, and Klaus Baudelaire. For this piece, I wanted to go with a style that reflected more the feel of the film, so I played around with my pens and came up with this. Kind of an eclectic mix of Edward Gorey and Jhonen Vasquez.

Medium: Inking done with Copic Multiliner 0.5 & brush pens and Micron 0.005, Painting done in Painter 8

Since this art is based off the designs for the movie, not the original books, I am going to say the copyright credit goes to Paramount and Nickelodeon Movies, though the characters themselves belong to the original author.

*Important Edit if you are Going to Comment* : Saying you dislike the movie or the books, etc, etc is not a constructive comment. If you want to say something about the art, too, it's still not exactly polite, but it is certainly your right to do so. If you have nothing to say about the art work, please, do not comment. Thank you much

Hey, I'm doing a review on the Netflix show that just came out. I was wondering if you would let me use your deviation as part of it. I wouldn't be making any money off it as I'm a new youtuber and am not monetising my videos. Would that be okay?

Both the movie and the books (the ones i've read) were great, although, after watching the movie first, it's a little hard to take olaf seriously. XD

I loved the movie, and im on the forth book. Although I've found that the film only focuses on the first three books, and messes up the storyline a bit, i loved it

Do you have a link? I'd love to see. It's been a while since I've seen good Lemony art. As for the style, no offense taken, as said, Jhonen (along with Gorey and others) was just an inspiration, I'd be more disappointed if you said it did look too much like him

I think if you just type in the http, it will automatically show up as a link when the comment is posted, you could double check in preview, though, I've been wrong before

you know, i loved the style used in the credits on the movie and throughout. The interesting bit about it is, I hardly see anyone mimicking that style. I think you've done a very great job of that. I'd love to see more.

Trivia Did you know that the creators of the credit sequence in the movie didn't even get noted in the credits? :question:

This is a great drawing!
Now, I must say that I prefered the books to the movie but both managed to capture an amazing steampunk theme!
but that aside, you have done a good job on this and I adore the detail on sunny's dress the anatomy is good and I think you've proportioned it well!
I think there's a bit of Tim Burton style in this as well... it must be the black swirls on the window.
