C’est un peu la galère pour trouver les premiers numéros mais j’ai mis la main sur les 0 à 3. Les autres sont précommandés.
J’adore les dessins et je serai curieux de savoir comment bosse l’artiste : 100% numérique ? Ou ce rendu vient des couleurs ?
Je ne connaissais pas sa série de trading cards, mais je connais son taff de cover artist sur certains titres de Spawn, Vampirella, Silverhawks, Thundercats.
Il fait parler de lui.
Edit : j’ai trouvé ceci sur l’Insta de l’auteur
Some have asked me about my process and I thought I would share this I did yesterday. Was going to do a video but couldn’t get it to work. So sometimes I will start with a sketch to get an idea. Then I will take that into a 3D model program and get a render so I have a reference to work with. These are custom models I made with custom maps. I have basically a model for everything I do, some are not that great though but I make it work. Anyways, I take that render and then turn down the opacity and start painting over that on a new layer with my custom brushes and canvas texture. Then finally you got the finished art. Anyways, a little peak inside a future cover of monsters.
