SO great and authentic, Tom! :D Love it! :)
I prefer the first version, where you can still see some washes.

Waiting for part 2 now :)

Cheers,
Francesco

LOL. I was in a Tintin frame of mind earlier and came up with this. Life was hard on the poor boy.

thanks guys.

the bottom is, at least in some small way, based on a series of prints by different artists that casterman put out about fifteen years ago to celebrate one of tintin's anniversaries. the bilal piece had tintin all messed up and hiding from secret agents in some slushy distopian-type future. only time i ever remember liking bilal's work.

cheers.

Oh man, these both are fantastic, but the bottom one brings a sly smile to my face everytime I see it.
