TINTIN by Francesco Francavilla

Al Williamson Tribute
(click on the above image for a larger view)

I am still in a Al Williamson state of mind, as you can see.
Since Tintin had a cameo in my tribute last week, I thought it was fitting to have an "Al" inspired take on the little guy.
Hope you guys dig it even if it's not the classic or popular rendition of Herge's creation.

Cheers,
Francesco

P.S. I hate putting on the pimp's hat but... today's issue 3 of GARRISON is out in stores: please support (by buying the book and/or promoting it) this creator owned title of mine, I will truly appreciate it :) Thanks!

Is Tintin sad because he couldn't 'get his toy rocket to fire'? Is that a euphemism? ;)

Love this, seeing your style on Tintin is very cool, just like the Archie cover. Great stuff!

Fantastic composition. Very nice and emotive. Just a masterful use of blacks.
