I really need to figure out the story rather than make lots of random pictures for this. But that’s all I can come up with at the moment… my brain is fried as far as realistic storytelling goes. Maybe once I’m settled down in Brussels and have some time to think without all this stress I can get into it. In the meantime…. concept art!
I made this sketch today while listening to some of my classical music. I think it would be cool if all of the chapters were related to some famous classical music. I purposefully misinterpreted the meaning of this one to be much more morbid, though.
Also, that girl isn’t the main character, some poor unnamed dead girl floating in the Donau river. And yes, that is edelweiss!

Yamino,
First off, I’ve been reading S.C. since about Christmas, and i just want to let you know I’m enjoying it immensely. Keep up the good work!
Now that that’s out of the way, I want to say your Nightingale concept art (both this post and those before it) is the most detailed, striking work I’ve seen you do. Your overall concept of a young foreign female analogue to Daredevil is very pleasing, especially in the possibilities it unveils for thought-provoking storytelling set in as history-filled a setting as Amsterdam.
I am sorry to hear you are finding it difficult to flesh out a working story… if you need an ear to bounce ideas off of, or a brain to storm out some story, I’d be glad to assist. I am a English/Creative Writing Senior at the University of Kentucky, and have a fairly strong grasp of comic book writing and plot development. My email address is (hidden), if you feel comfortable enough with collaborative storyline.
Good luck in whatever you decide,
Andrew Moreland
P.S. It was your Vienna Blood Waltz cover that made me want to write this. Beautiful work, I really want to know her story.
Just…wow! This is all so amazing. I really can’t wait for you to get some story. If you want some ideas, I’m something of a writer myself, so I might be able to bounce some ideas off of you, even though you’re probably overwhelmed with people offering to give you ideas anyways xD’ Anyways, good luck with everything
I’m also graduating this June, so lets split that luck!
