If I recall correctly, I believe he's nine years old in the anime.

I think he's supposed to be like 8 or something... Although if you consider his creation date... Brand spankin' new!

Excellent work. Love the color palette.

Interesante forma de dibujar un sentimiento o expresion.

Interesting form to draw a feeling or expression.
I like the approach

This is just beautiful. Is just as that other pic with the same mofit, but in a lighter mood. I think Astro seems about 10 to 12 years old in both Old and New anime, which I like in the new though since it has cooler stuff as the Doki program.

Astro must to have around 50 or 60 years old, after all, he was the first, the one who begun all what we see about anime and manga. Long live Osamu Tezuka, Long Live Astroboy.

Gotta love this.

I'm a big Astro fan. I love this picture so much cause it really captures him in the same style Tezuka would have loved to see.

Dragonrider1227 [2005-09-06 18:14:35 +0000 UTC]

age depends on what you're watching. The Manga says he's 12, the 2003 series says he's nine. And I think the 80s series says he's nine too. I don't know what the 0s series says. BTW, AAAWWW to your picture. *hugs Astro* ^_^

hm.... how old is he? physically he's not even a year old I think but mentally he's 9 or 10

mrbreaker [2005-02-07 09:38:28 +0000 UTC]

Dunno how old he is, in the comics he's died and been born again, so it's kind of an unanswerable question.

This is probably one of my favorite pictures of Astro that I've ever seen. It captures the style, but moreso the heart.

I think his creator Tezuka would probably be astounded by your rendering if he were still alive.


theres more info on his site about Astro

I just a-stumbled upon this randomly, but lemme just say great work! I like the colour scheme especially. Anyway, I have an unhealthy if not insane obsession with Astroboy, so lemme give some anwers on the issue of his age. Dr. Tenma's son Tobio was killed in a truck crash at age 9, and he modeled Astroboy off Tobio, so it could be argued that he is nine. However, Astroboy was published on the 7th of April 1953, so the character is 51 years old as of today. Additionally, in the series, Astro is supposed to have been created in the year 2003, which makes him one year old by our time frame.

Nice and tender picture: You always manage to draw full-feeling pictures with few lines: that's artistic style!

AtariRaccoon [2004-09-16 01:49:45 +0000 UTC]

I know for a fact that he was made in the 60's, I think either 64 or 68, but I could be wrong.

Anime-Detectives [2004-09-16 00:59:58 +0000 UTC]

Well, technically he's less than a year old. He was just created when the series opened (if I'm correct).

I really like how you used a soft lighting technique here. You blended the highlight colors and the shadow and background colors beautifully. Very nice job.

MilesTailsPrower-007 [2004-09-16 00:28:33 +0000 UTC]

By his appearance, he looks to be about ten years old =]

I love this @__@;; Geez, if this were traditional art (as in drawn on paper) I would buy this from you. It's incredible. I love the title, for one thing, and the pose angle and lighting came out REALLY well. Glad to see Astro Boy art XD
