| HELLO DARKNESS #25. 2026. Photoshop, 4125 × 6263 px. |
What's this? Two Wacky Reference Wednesdays in a row? Have I come out of retirement? Was I ever in it?
As I look back over my records and files, I realize that I only did a reference post on the #4 cover, so I guess that's as good an excuse as any to go through the rest of the batch in the coming weeks (or years). You can see the rest of the covers here on the blog.

Below you can see how I started things out. I seem to remember having this idea early on, but it never made it into the first round. Not pictured is a ton of reference of half-naked showgirls, all in the name of research, I swear. When it comes to costumes, the most helpful is often Etsy, eBay, and specialty stores, where people post great pics of things they're trying to sell.
I still have lots of other variations on the "turning out the lights" theme, so hopefully I get another chance down the line.
