This tribute to Moebius is letting me discover very talented artists from the balkans, and the fact is they are very friendly and always willing to cooperate if possible. Chapeau to that.
This week the popular comic-book artist born in Zagreb, Dražen Kovačević visits this blog with a gift: a wonderful lieutenant Blueberry drawing and, as usual, answers our questions in a very interesting interview...you can't miss it!!
Anson Maddocks...let there be art.
Paul is a French comic-book artist, born in '75 and Toulouse resident working for both European and French markets. Marvel, Image, Dark Horse, IDW, Dynamite entertainment, Basement comics, amongst others...are the credentials of this talented artist.
He has happily answered our request for being part of this blog, share his art with us, do an interview and send the sketch of Lieutenant Blueberry he has created for us.

A fabulous portrait of Blueberry by the great Miguel Quesada Ramos...
Miguel
Quesada Ramos is a versatile Spanish cartoonist based in Valencia,
active since 1979. His name is linked to the return of the mythical
"Guerrero del Antifaz" comic in 2016.
But
Miguel has a long career behind, which includes works in European
comics, some of them in Germany as Connie, Spook, or Gespenster,
developed until the early 90's, when he enters the world of animation,
with jobs as a Graphic designer, colorist or storyboards, in titles
such as El Cid.La leyenda, Gisaku, Libelulas, Excalibur, Pedro y el
Robot o Comandante Fly.
He
also presents works as illustrator in books for publishers as Susaeta,
Magisterio, Ortells...and other kind of works, such as characters design
for video games, graphic design in television spots ... shortly, a
master and a real off-road.
As
soon as this blog contacted Miguel, he did not hesitate to offer us a
collaboration and to accept to answer to our classic interview:
Anson Maddocks...let there be art.
Let there be art. So be it. And then I discovered Anson Maddocks' art when I was 14 and bought my first Magic the gathering deck and a booster with my brother. It was the 3rd revised edition and an expansion booster....fallen empires. We shared it to be able to play one against the other; didn't have money for more at that time. Spent hours playing and watching the art on its cards.
And now, the master who created the sengir vampire, hurloon minotaur, fallen angel or llanowar elves, joins the tribute to Moebius with a collaboration and an interview. I can only say I woudn't believe it, it certainly is a dream come true.
Anson, as Drew Tucker (who also joined this blog tribute), is one of the original 25 artists that began Magic the Gathering along with Richard Garfield under Wizards of the Coast.
Born and raised in Alaska, moved later to Seattle where he attended the Cornish College of Arts for a year and a half, after he decided to go freelance, and finally took part in the born of what became a worldwide card game, magic the gathering. Now is a reknown artist, spends his time in proyects, commisioned work, and still appears in mtg events.
Jean-Luc Serrano in our blog...
What to say...?
What to say...?
Chapeau. Thank you monsieur.
When you get to
reach someone like Jean-Luc Serrano, you feel comfortable since minute
0. It's really a pleasure to talk to someone who has conquered the U.S.
animation scene with his talent at Dreamworks' service (Kung Fu Panda,
the prince of Egypt, among others) and still he has that touch to surprise.
Judge by yourselves, this collaboration of a magnificent Jimmy McClure and get to know more about him in this fresh interview:

It has been an
honor that Drew accepted the challenge of capturing his art in our tribute
to Moebius - Jean Giraud -, and in fact, a personal dream come true,
since he is one of my favorite artists.
We've had the best of communications during his creative process, and he's had all the freedom to choose how to develop this tribute, I didn't want guidelines, just wanted him to choose. His unique style is one hundred percent in this artwork, take your time to analyze each detail and enjoy.
