So the next story takes place at the same time as The Better to Find You With (You get Connor’s side of this phone conversation). While I have their uniforms down, I realized they will need coats while they run around in the snow. I wanted Connor’s coat to be a little more stylish than Jeff’s but also imply being closed off. The high collar was I thought would be a good solution. I might make his coat a little longer so it can flap dramatically while he runs. Maria’s coat is more in line with the average coat that’s been showing up in the series.

So I redid Mina a bit after doing the first design. They were mostly small tweeks to push what I want out of it.

During the book there is also an investigation scene that is in a poorer apartment. I wanted this to contrast Maria’s apartment a lot. Again space and what level the apartment is on are the two factors in apartments. So the poorest ones are gonna be small and have no windows since they don’t get light from outside much anyway.

And here’s just another view of her apartment. I wanted to show off how much of her kitchen was visible from the living room. It was mostly kinda a layout thing.

Inside Maria’s apartment, she has a lower level apartment going down slightly I thought would be more visually interesting than going start into the apartment. Since I do a lot of talking scene that height differences would just add variety.
