Ouh ! Farinas c’est pas mal du tout ça, un jeune artiste à surveiller de très près (ses segments Gamma sont excellents). Bon, j’ai l’impression que soit j’ai loupé l’info dans mes pre-order soit que c’est programmé un peu plus tard, je vais surveiller ça !

@Douglas Wolk

I know he [Ulysses Farinas] can do these amazing cityscapes, and he really likes designing things. He loves coming up with interesting looking characters and devices. I just give him room to do a bunch of that, and when he started coming up with things…

If you look at that big spread on pages 2 and 3, there’s this giant robot in the foreground, and that’s something he drew near the end of drawing that page. He was like “Yeah, I just decided it needed something more in the foreground, so I made up this robot, and then I made up what this robot does, and then I made up these other robots that go with that robot, and then i wrote eight pages of history about that robot and what they do.” Great. That is excellent, I am totally putting that in there if you want to draw them later on, and I’ll write a bunch of stuff for them.

@Ulises Farinas

I’m actually obsessed with his face. Ever since we’ve been working on it, I always ask Douglas what he looks like. I know everybody says you can’t see his face, but for me, as an artist, I need to explore that question. When it comes to drawing, I want to draw everything, even the things I can’t see. Like when I draw Mega-City Two, there are things I put in there the readers won’t even be aware of. Douglas and I have emailed each other back and forth clues trying to figure out what Dredd looks like. The second issue of « Mega-City Two » actually has a paper doll cutout with different outfits, and his head itself is just a big question mark.

In the beginning, I had a complete head worked out. I had an indication of the face on the page. But then it became much more difficult to draw it with a head underneath it, instead of just drawing the scowl. I ended up abandoning his face and it became that I was drawing his head and helmet as his entire head. No face. Whereas with other characters who wear helmets, I’ll draw a face and then draw the helmet on top of it. Judge Dredd doesn’t get that.
