Update on Book Progress

So I've finished the manuscript and have been doing some sketches for the illustration styles.  Still working on it and playing around with different ideas but here are a few of the roughs:
Possibly a sketch for the queen when she goes to give the apple to Snow White. I really like the high contrast of the shadows and the creepy vibe of the figure.




The queen giving (or receiving) the box containing Snow White's heart from the huntsman. My basic idea for this queen is that she's extremely eccentric so all her hairstyles and clothing will reflect that.



The queen asking the magic mirror who is fairest in the land. This is presumably before she gets the bad answer.



A concept sketch for one of the seven "dwarves". Going for a really creepy look to them (you do not want to bunk with these guys). And, yes, he's carrying a steel pike not a stick.



Another concept sketch for one of the dwarves. Might draw another one with a bloodier stake or munching on a thigh bone, or something.



Rough sketch for Snow White. Trying to give her that crazed waif look with the messy hair and dark shadows under her eyes.



Possible sketch for Snow White's death.
