My first Black Lotus! One of the most expensive printed cardboard on Earth, ha. Another beauty illustrated by the same artist as Granite Gargoyle: Christopher Rush.

I’m playing Magic Shandalar for the first time and came across a beautiful card I didn’t know about, Granite Gargoyle. I’m trying to build a red deck around this creature because the artwork is so evocative (basically because it looks like a sphinx 😏)

Some of the tubes I used while painting Khanef. For the blue of the sphinx, I used two Blue Nicker: Light and Cerulean. For the rest of the painting, I worked with Daler Rowney and Pébéo gouaches with a very limited palette: Yellow Ochre, Naples Yellow, Primary Yellow, Burnt Umber, and Primary Blue.

My copies of Métal Hurlant #16 just arrived 😤 Featuring my story The Uterus of God (l’Utérus de Dieu). "Trapped in a state of perpetual childhood and dependent on the uterus to survive, the Christ Child suffers the weight of his own creation".

Last week was all about wrapping up production cycles. Besides finishing the inks for Ringbreaker #2, I also completed the layouts for The Shadow in the Jungle written by Aaron Shaps. Now it’s time to go over everything, make some adjustments, and dive into the inking process across these 22 pages.

The ink pile for Ringbreaker #2, written by Alan Bahr. Since I went back to traditional inking over a year ago, I’ve felt more comfortable, faster, and genuinely happier with my work; Immersing yourself in inking a page, switching tools, cleaning a brush or loading ink.

It's almost a constant that Buddhist iconography seeps into the comics I create. Here are the concept designs of the Christ Child and the Buddha Child, the main characters of The Uterus of God (l'Utérus de Dieu), published in Métal Hurlant #16.

I was surprised by the amount of technical information the video offers. If I'd had this as a kid, I would have worn out the VHS from watching it so much. What surprised me most is the explanation of how to balance the black in a panel, a balance you continue to pursue throughout your inking life.

Wonderful interview. It's truly a pleasure to read the masters speak so in-depth about Urbicande. I had no idea it was originally intended as a full-color album. I'm glad they decided to do it in black and white; it adds so much drama to the story. Excite about every post on this substack.
We have published the English translation of the excellent interview by Régis Duqué with François Schuiten and Benoît Peeters about La Fièvre d'Urbicande and Urbicande - “L’enquête sans fin”.

François Schuiten and Benoît Peeters throughout the creation of a page, it’s in French, but everything that’s happening is very easy to follow. One of my favorite duos in the world of comics since I came across with La Fièvre d´Urbicande, architectural science fiction.

Returning to the onomatopoeia drawn in my panels, a resource that I had put aside because I couldn't do it well, but which I love to see in other comic artists when they incorporate them organically within their panels; it's a very beautiful compositional resource.
