Description
War is Hell... but War of the Independents is all kinds of cool. It's a 6 issue mega-cool mini-series, by Dave Ryan & Scott Lobdell... I strongly recommend folks keep an eye out for it Summer '08. The cast and crew represented here in part, is a really good example of why I love comics so much.Not sure how it happened, but one day I woke up and too much time had passed since I gave in to the muse that keeps tugging at me, to draw my creator owned character-- XSTACY. This pic is dedicated to Deviant's very own Y2Jenn... for reminding me of what I had been missing out on, and lighiting a fire to make the time for Xstacy... stat! While drawing this image-- I had more fun than any one person has a right to... so if that's wrong, I don't wanna be right.
as always... thanks for looking

I was honestly at a loss for coherent words when I first saw this. I had to take a moment to collect my thoughts before I could pull myself away long enough to write a comment. This is absolutely beautiful, everything about it is just gorgeous. You have such an incredible talent for natural and animated figures, expressions and composition. This is a killer piece and XSTACY is a wonderful character. I love her design! She's got such personality in her pose and in that picture of her on the wall. 
I don't think I've ever told you how big of an inspiration you've been for me as well. You're a breath of fresh air and a reminder of why I love the comic book world so much.

You really have such a wonderful blend of animation and naturalism. It allows your images to flow and move with the excitement of a cartoon, while still feeling realistic enough to be natural. It's the kind of heightened reality that comics do so well, and you're a pitch-perfect example. I'm a huge fan of your work, and this piece shows why.
Fantastic work.

I agree with jpm1023, you draw wonderful women. You absolutely must do a tutorial or something. It would help so many aspiring artists.

Hahahah, jk. Thanks for posting man, you rock. Going to Chitown this year for Wizard World?

Fresco,
This is a super clean piece of pure magic!
I personally think you are at the top of your game with unlimited potential to go where no man or Fresco has gone before.....
Like the Watcher, I can wait to see what you do and where you go next!!!!
Note: Please remove any "creep factor" from that last statement... I succumb to fits of fanboy-ism but am considered by case study workers (voices in my head) as generally harmless!
MUCH respect Fresco!!!!

Hot diggity dog Francheso, that's one of the best things I've seen from ya. Trademark hot babes, and lotsa crazy ass details all over the place. Seeing this really makes me want to go out and get my shite together and draw draw draw.
Awesome work brutha.

wow, your attention to detail always astounds me bruddah! This is a true example of practice makes perfect, or, the right price to the devil will show results lol.
Gotta tell ya a story about the latter sometime lol.
Great work and wonderful fluidity on this! Amazing details with ALL the characters in the back. Kinda reminds me of days of future past, but thankfully not the same way EVERYONE draws the recreated cover.

Damn, Fresco. That's bad-ass. Ultra props for drawing all those background faces.
I'm glad you got to X-Stacy again.

Hello Sweetness... thanks for the props on the pic. I drew them all in... and it killed to have to cover up any of the mugshots. Maybe one day I'll post the poster in its entirety without the figures in front of it obstructing the view.
Glad you're glad. You were one of those who made me really nostalgic when you drew Xstacy... whatta beautiful gift. Always loved seeing different takes on her from day one, but I was like... wish I could draw Xstacy... but one project after the next after the next kept coming up. I decided this weekend that I was gonna play 'hookie' from work and draw me some Xstacy... and dammit, it felt good!
Thanks again for your very own vision of 'you know who' CHAOS GOAT...
(have you been to my website lately?)

The new layout (and awesome new art!) looks great, btw.

Awesome piece man. Love the background and portraits.
I'm so happy to hear XStacy is in WOTI too. I'm sure the project will be a huge hit.
Cheers!
