I always enjoyed the puns, the imaginary words, the twisted humor, the wacky universe Lewis Carroll has put together through his poems and books.
The most famous is of course, Alice's adventures in Wonderland, closely followed by Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There.
But there are also the Jabberwocky and the Hunting of the Snark poems, and the fairy-siblings tale of Sylvie and Bruno.
All of this seems kinda far away from Magic, but who doesn't enjoy a good design challenge ?
Of course, it navigates between source material, added stuff and pop culture versions because somehow I can't manage to stick to a strict line.
But who knows how the flavor will end up after all ? I'm just craving for good visuals which kinda limits the option sometimes.
Here ya go, behold my wacky WIP.
