Another Vlad Tepes, a slightly more lighthearted version this time. Made at the (hopefully) revived Drink&Draw session in the Tücsök (Cricket) Beer Garden.
Too many great artists passed away in 2016, several of them definitely before their time. Maybe this is not true of Leonard Cohen, who "had many good innings" (as a British mate of mine said), but his death is still a great loss. This portrait actually resembles a bit to my Dad, who passed away a week after Mr. Cohen, so may in fact be my tribute to him.
A female Agent Kitty, just to walk on the bright side. Head design kindly borrowed from French comics genius Boulet. Merci!
Next up, a lot more serious cat. Fanart of Blacksad, the title character of an utterly awesome Spanish-French comic, finally being published in Hungarian.
Sadly, another tribute was in order this week, as Carrie Fisher was also claimed by 2016. The original Star Wars movies were defining childhood experiences for so many of us, and she formed an unforgettable female lead character as Princess Leia . May the Force be with her!
Last but definitely not least, let me show you something drawn by one of my finest comics buddies (the cover designer of Corvin himself ), Gábor Pápai. Gábor is one of the proud ones who completed the whole Inktober challenge. He also published his drawings and made personalized covers to top it off. So here's me and Mr. Colin O'Gara, whose further adventures I need to work hard on in the new year.
So, let's call it a year, and please allow me the audacity to wish all of us a slightly better 2017!
