Death

From "The Sandman: Endless Nights" graphic novel

Art by Miguelanxo Prado




This is one of my favorite visions of the character Death in the Sandman series so far. She comes from the story "The Heart of a Star" in Endless Nights...Death before she 'cheered up.'


Costume Sketch
coming soon


Costume Notes:
Once I have the sketch scanned in, it'll be easier to see how this costume will be made. It's got sort of a tailored Renaissance look, same as the rest of the Endless siblings in this story. (Dream's tailored highwayman's jacket with black-and-white slash sleeves is high on my 'to-make' list.) Death's gown is a plum-violet underdress with a standing collar and sort of mutton-chop sleeves at the shoulders with a black v-neck tunic, waist cincher, and "sleeves." As usual, the hardest part is going to be finding a good black wig.


Due date:
Pittsburgh comic con, April 30-May 2, 2004
