Description I was looking it over and i'm really pleased with how the lineart on this one... i think i even like it better than the colored version.
so here it is.
have at thee!

(micron pen and a big black sharpie!!!)
Hellboy and Rasputin (c) Mike Mignola and Dark Horse Publishing.
.... i mean, i suppose that technically the historical figure of Rasputin belongs to... well... himself... but in any case...

I prefer this over the coloured version, while you control the two shades with such striking contrast so craftedly, with confidence and vision.
Grand work, really captures the feel of Hellboy too...

I think the smooshed-ness of it comes from Hellboy's right arm kind being compacted and the way his right hand it attached to his arm.

But Raspuitn <3!

Wow, that kicks ass! I can almost hear Hellboy's head ploping onto the floor...
"look out!!!"
I love your unusual composition also, great work!

As y2jenn said, you gotta love that Mignola and Lissa style cross over (not in those words, but we know what I mean!)

I fucking love that the Mignola style is kept over all, but god damnit, you put in yours and BAM!!!!

did that make any sense or just sound really stupid and redundant? Well, in any case, I love it!!!!! AAQAARYYAAAARRGGHHH!!!

did any of my style really make it in there? it's funny, i can't see it but then again, it's rare that an artist can really recognize their own style at all...

I like the color version too.

But the detail of your black ink drawing is amazing.

I wish I could draw.

Good stuff.

I love how you managed to keep your style and yet it still has that Mignola flare to it. Its rare that I see a hellboy piece that I like but this one is the best so far. Love your work and i'm surprised that this hasn't gotten any comments yet. Its excellent. I get the feeling that its a little smooshed down... maybe its all that open space up top... no biggy. Its perfect.

yeah, people said the same thing about the colored one looking "smooshed". it was an effect i was trying to go for, to give it a real weighted feeling of tension. for good or ill, i guess it worked

My husband, *viper13 is a huge fan of yours and even he was saying that the "smooshed" effect is distracting. I disagree. The more I looked at it the more I liked the empty space. And you're right, it does feel weighted. Good good stuff. And you're so welcome!
