Searching For Trouble 13 RECONSTRUCTED

Well, I'm sticking my neck out here, but hear me out. C0re1 drew a series called "Searching For Trouble", commissioned by BondageLoverTravis. The series ended at part 12 fav.me/d4l3iut , and then c0re1, a talented artist, vanished from DA without a trace in 2009. (His last journal entry from Jan 2009 was titled "I live... again" which doesn't sound so good.) BLT posted the last thing he got from c0re1, a partial greyscale sketch that would have become part 13 fav.me/d38fykw . Then BLT himself vanished early last year. Stvkar , who also used to get commissions from BLT (see "Dinner For Two" stvkar.deviantart.com/gallery/… ) hasn't heard from him since ("He just stopped emailing and that was it"). All of us have limited time on this earth, so you just have to hope for the best but this unfinished series has been gnawing at me for years, and I finally decided to take a crack at finishing it, just for the heck of it. I was able to reconstruct the background "forest" layer by borrowing from the last several finished parts of the series, and then colored c0re1's greyscale sketch using the other finished installments as a guide to his style. I'm kind of shocked at how well it worked, and humbled because it kind of blows my own original work out of the water. To reiterate, THIS IS NOT MY WORK. It's entirely c0re1's work, left unfinished in 2009, just reconstructed and colored "by-the-numbers" by myself. Stvkar thinks BLT would have been pretty pleased to see this. I wonder if we will ever find out. If a returned c0re1 or BLT ever ask me to take it down, I will. May lightning strike me if I have done wrong...
