Шикарные работы! Посмотрел с удовольствием!

There's something about drawing that makes me envy the ones who are talented and gifted enough to be able to give birth to that magic and unique something that they have in mind. I love the kids in your drawing. they give me joy.

Очень круто))) сочетание цвета замечательное)

Erwin, your illustrations make me long to write middle grade instead of young adult. How wonderful they all are.

I realy loved the second one :)

Amazing work!

Love it!

Works great for the eyes!

Depth !

Awesome!

какая красота))) супер)

This is beautiful!

Did you make on purpose unmatching light source/girl shadow?
Or there is something glowing on the left side outside of the picture. BTW amazing works especially handling light...

Anonymous - Yes it's on purpose. Picking up from the previous book "The Lost Children", the girl Ida doesn't age so her woman size cheated shadow is her true self.

I'm the same "anonymous" from previous comment.
Interesting, and I didn't know the story... I tried to find it on internet but no luck. Is that book in the store?

All the best!

Nice one Erwin!

Always beautiful!

its cute, but somehow it seems that the previous pictures are much stronger in color and composition.

Sweeet , Erwin!

awesome! The cat's face is very cool! Great work.

Love the colors and overall design! I can just see the wonderment in her. :)

wonderful!

Of course, I adore this book cover, and feel really lucky!

Your website is amazing!
Kuidate

Marvellous! So beautiful things!!! You're cery clever! Compliments

great stuff there. really diggin the lighting in those pieces

Wow! Great work! I really like the colors and layouts of your illustrations. Megamind was a really good movie, it's great to see the concept artwork for it!

these panels are incredibly beautiful! wow

Awww WOW these are amazing! this may be premature but do you have a potential release date for your comic?

I want to see all the panels, man! Too bad those balloons block part of the view! (hand drawn balloons look better in my opinion)

very interesting....I'm curious to see the final opera!

I really like the style of your graphic novel. Very clean and graphic and also atmospheric.

I would also suggest, to try some different styles for the word bubbles. The current ones look very technical and dead and don't do the fantastic visuals justice.

I'm waiting eagerly for more!

absolutely gorgeous! thanks for sharing this.

Thanks guys, I'm glad you like it!

Jason - If I were to guess, sometime in February 2010 in France.

cannot wait! you're a true inspiration, no doubt!

awesome erwin!

WOW!!!!

i am really unsure as to what this comic is about right now

very cool man! I'm looking forward to this comic!

OK, so preorder two for me. One that will get drooled over and another pristine copy for posterity. Great work, seriously I would like to preorder.

Shoot me an email if you'll be at CTN-X this year.

beautiful work

I have become a big fan of your art Erwin..

good stuff you got going erwin! can't wait to see the final product

Thanks Nikki!

Thanks Wayne! The book is 46 pages.

Another nice one Erwin. I enjoy the combination of believable light with the paper cutout style. Really neat stuff dude.

Cheers from Canada.

wow, love the dimensional paper-cut style! The stark white speech balloon is a bit jarring, but I'm sure it will look awesome when it's all put together.

good job and nice colors. congrats ;)

great stuff. I like the last one a ton too.

Beautiful, this looks so far a great book; best of luck with it!

Man, these are amazing. Slow down, please.

Yah I love this stuff. Finish and I'll buy a copy.

AMAZING!!!!!!

I agree with everyone... this is just priceless! beautiful work and detail, colours and composition! VERY inspiring!

How do you start each illustration? Sketches, or...do you paint right away?

Wow. This is fantastic man! Really great job my friend!! How can I nab a copy of this? And will it be printed in English ever?

This is very eye-catching. Love it, and can't wait to read it.

awesome erwin!

Wow, awesome!

Increidble work! Love these pages, can't wait to get it!

This is painted so well, wonderful pages.

what everyone else said:)
Ill be sure to pick it up

Hey Thanks guys!!! I appreciate it:)
I can't wait until I get a copy too!

Abz - I always start with a simple thumbnail pencil sketch, then I start blocking it in right away in photoshop to get the values and colors right. Then I break down each panel with more detail.

Rawls - I think this will be available through Amazon France but I'll follow up with a post later next month to let everyone know where they can get a copy. I don't know if it will ever get printed in English, I guess it depends on how popular it is, but I never do like the english USA versions because the printing is always crappy and soft bound instead of hard.

I'll pick it up too. wonderfull work!

B

Jeez dude your work is incredible. I thought you were painting these in a computer but I see you're using some sort of cel paint. Fantastically animated characters and super strong compositions. I hope you have great success with your publication.

these are beautiful panels.. Can't wait to buy it!
