I used an abstract style for the following reasons:
- the abstraction leaves a lot of room for guesses and ambiguity. #suspense
- the things shown are so abstract and far from reality that I could show the horrors MOA is speaking of without disturbing the readers. #family-friendly
- this style is a nice change from the usual style of the comic and it visually seperates the vision from the normal world / story line. #diversity #structure
- symbols hold more meaning than realism, so I could tell a lot more with a lot less pages. #economy
- the symbolic depiction gives the spread an ancient feel. #hieroglyphs #maya
- And last but not least I really enjoy going all abstract and wanted to incorporate this style into my project ♥
