You saw a glimpse of this on my promo shots & pics, but here's the real thing, in HD, for you guys. You can expect a detailled step by step too.
I can confess I struggled a lot with the cover of this first LUST comicbook: so much pressure about it, do I draw the two main characters? How are they acting? Etc. At some point I wanted to recreate...

This is the final step by step for LUST chapter one. And this is very special of course, I had to modify my usual stages to fit that giant panel with all the details. After the sketch I went from top to bottom (hem hem), the very last step was the black suit. This for the very convenient reason: to avoid the spread of black graphite everywhere, eve...

Meetings & signings next week at the BIGGEST comiccon in France: le Festival d'Angoulême! 😃 I'm invited not to one but TWO booths! The mornings I'll be on the "Des Bulles dans l'océan" booth (CM15 Le monde des bulles); the afternoons meet me at the LGBT BD booth (F39, Bulles du nouveau monde, BD alternative). I will...

He's more bulk & fit than what I have in mind, I gotta pay more attention next time. So, the scan is once again blurry, I had to filter this image too, I really gotta figure out what's going on.
On a personal note, some of you may know this, I live on a tropical island called La Réunion, on the south eastern coasts of South Africa. We're exp...

I drawn this yesterday and could scan it at night, just to realize it was blurred, although the graphite original is not. I hope my scanner is not having trouble... so I had to use a filter to correct this one, not great but will do.

YES! First big news to announce, and first to you my dear patrons, is that the comic sees its first chapter getting printed: the very first comicbook will be available at the end of the month!
There you see some pics I made of the test version, the one that allows me to give the greenlight to the printing of all the copies. I'm very happy with th...

I know you see new sketches & new characters coming & coming, hehehe! This is another one and we're not finished!
The big challenge for the forthcoming new LUST episode is the number of characters. It's not the only challenge, actually, but it's a first step. Expect something very different from what you saw, but still with lots of emot...
Well, it's humpday, so it had to end with a nice booty somehow! I enjoyed to get back to some anatomy study here, although I was very distracted by that big bum of his! XD

About this panel, the biggest work was the jungle, for sure! I wanted a frame for the guy, showing he was going to the background, where's the light.
The other difficult part was the pose, all the other stages went smoothly, like his skin, hehe! I wanted to get the on the go posing and, of course, a very beautiful bum showing off. I'm pretty happ...

Another character that may feature in the next chapter of LUST. Love that big dark beard & the piercing eyes.
Posting all the new sketches lately, it brings us back 8 months & more ago, when I was pre-producing the first chapter. A nice memory, although I was so stressed out, unsecure about the project. Now finishing the 1st chapter, whil...

Some more of him, the next guys I will study are black. It is really challenging to render black skin properly with graphite. I did some nice pin-ups before, but it's a bit different here for the comic, with the technics I use in mind.
Oh, I forget to give you some lil news of the comic, indeed, hehe! Still working on the first chapter, stay tune...

For the last step by step of 2017, I show you an unsual stage, very important for the final rendering: the mix & balance between the raw final scan & the finished piece.
As I scan myself with a classic flat scanner device, I got poor quality regarding the hard work on the paper: the light disrupt the black graphite & I often get...

We're close to the end of 2017, but not over without some sketching of the next characters to be featured in LUST chapter TWO!
The actual chapter one is done, folks! More news soon ;-) Enjoy the last days of 2017!

Here you see the detailled color process too.
The main stage to see is the lines, which is, as said to me Patrick, some kind of inking process. You can notice it's a bit different from my usual artwork: I challenged Patrick's style, mixing with my own. Here it looks a bit like I'm already performing some shading: like little lines to make some sh...

Just a lil souvenir from last saturday, I was signing with my artist buddy Issa Boun our comicbooks published by french publisher Comics Trip! éditions.
You can see me sporting my Bad Bearry t-shirt & the comicbook around, hehe!
Have a blast during Christmas celebrations!

Fanart of the sexy demon character from the Class Comics universe, created by my super talented artist friend Patrick Fillion 👍 Be ready for a sexy step by step next week ;-)

Well, that's a last minute event, but I was up to, so why not!? I'm gonna sign my comicbooks all day long next saturday, right before the christmas celebrations! We'll see if last minute buyers will enjoy my stuff, hehe!
No LUST comic there yet, I started page 24 today & so pleased with the result. Just gotta draw the final BIG cliffhanger an...

Couldn't wait to show off this creative process, as we celebrate hump day & this panel from page 20 is the perfect fit :-)
As the previous one, we have a special SWEAT layer. I enjoy drawing this, although it's still more work, like hair, but it's worth the trouble when you see how it renders on the final piece.
I'm so into drawing face...

I was so focused when drawing this panel from page 19. I remember thinking he's gotta sweat like he's in hell! That's why you get a special stage here "sweat", just before the shading and after the hair part.
Funny to see I was carried away with his face: I didn't stop at the lines step, you already see the beard, hehe!
Thanks for your supp...

A little memory from august last year! The point of view was a blast to draw and seeing this I'd like to do such again.
At that time I was enjoying doing some videos, it was really fun but took so much time, unbelievable! Anyway, you gotta forgive my terrible english accent XD And I'm still laughing at me saying "shaping" instead of "shading"!! I...

I also recalled I made a step by step video, and I realized I never shared them here! So I'm gonna show it to you right now!

Face studies for the new character. I went full render for one of them, Iove to play with the shading, hehe!

Probably my favorite panel for them both. The pose was amazing to draw at the sketch part, I was really concerned with the one bending that much & the hands, but it went smoothly & all the other stages went well too.
The hair part was HUGE, but as you noticed lately there's another layer that I did not separate here from the shading...

Working on page 21 for LUST comic, I drawn this and I'm really happy with the result. I wanna share with you the full artwork just scanned. I guess it's the kind of panel where you realize just how much you're in love with your character, hehe! Oh, but maybe it was obvious before? ;-)
