Iron fan-art

Iron fan-art
This is a sketch of Angel, the main character of a comics made by Iron (published in Heavy Metal magazine). I could'nt find any information about him so if anyone knows something about who this guy is, i'd be glad to know. All I can say is that he is a fenomenal artist. Most of his work features alot of violence and they give a feeling like that of watching an action film. Everything is very dynamic and he has a great sense of space and timing. He also has a very distinct style. Brilliant work.

Frezzato fan-art

Frezzato fan-art
During my early twenties I was subscribed to Heavy Metal magazine for a few years. For those of you who don't know, it's an adults oriented comics magazine (alot of the comics involes violence and/or nudity). In every issue I didn't like at least half of the comics. Either the story was stupid or I didn't like the drawing style. But it was those few other great comics that made every issue worth it. At some point I sat down with a pencil and copied some of the characters of some of my favorite artists.
This is a sketch I did of a character from Frezzato's graphic novel The 2nd Moon. I really love Frezzato's art. It's the perfect mix between manga and european-style comics. Aside from his great artistic ability, Frezzato also shows an immense imagination. For this fantasy story, he created amazing landscapes, cities, mechanical flying machines and great characters.

Another sketch in my Field Notes sketchbook.

Note: I will be updating this blog once a week - every Saturday. I find it difficult at this time to keep up with two updates a week.
