Artist's Comments

Six years have passed since Tunnels Of Blood. Darren has settled into life as a vampire's assistant, and feels at home in the Cirque Du Freak. But now he must leave the freak show and his friends behind, to travel to the distant Vampire Mountain with Mr Crepsley, where he must be presented for approval to the Vampire Princes and Generals -D.Shan

===
Ah finally~ i had no doubts in my mind what concept to make for book four! all i kept thinking about was the journey to Vampire mountain, little master Shan said it took months! This is why everything else looks dark and earthy, they were travelling mostly in the night, to avoid the sun.

So there are four new characters here. Everyone else will recognize Darren Shan in a cute woolly bonnet. Larten Crepsley is next, being laughed at by another vampire Ganver Purl, because of the wind messing his "only" section of orange hair hehehe! "Aw you look like a starfish, Larten! HAHA!" I know Gavner is s';pose to look old and with a wrestler-built body but i can't help think of him with a younger one. :p Plus I think i made Crepsley look like the only obvious vampire in teh crowd (pale skin) and Gavner is not tall (he's s';pose to be a distance further away than crepsley, that's why he looks tall) hehehe!

ok next is Harkat in his blue robes. when i got to thinking how to draw him, i kept thinking of Vivi from FFVII game. and i know there're s';pose to be two of the Little People with the vampires, but i based this part after the bear fight. So then there's also Darren's new furry friend, a wolf he named Streak because it had a black stripe somewhere beneath its belly. Now the blonde one faded behind Crepsley is Kurda Smahlt, a soon-to-be vampire Prince they'll meet in the mountain.

hope u likes (esp those darren fans out there)! :glomp:

I like their clothes alot. When u read the books ur not fully thinking about that stuff, but once someone draws it does make u think back and say, 'oh yeah, dude, never thought of that'.
Mr Crepsley looks really young too. I like it when people give him more hair, he looks more handsome that way. Go you, man.
