 Superb coloring by Tomeu Morey.

 

 

Making of a cover: TALON #0

TALON designs

This week DC COMICS released the issue #7 of TALON. That´s the last issue of the first story arc, but also my last issue. After that I won´t be taking care of the art. These months I´ve enjoyed working with Scott Snyder, but specially with James Tynion IV. James will keep writing the book, so keep an eye on it!
Not to mention Tomeu Morey, one of the best colorists in the industry.
As an homage to this book that kept mebusy for more than 7 months, I´ll be posting some "behind the scenes" images during next week, starting today with some of the several designs I did for the character. Enjoy!

First sketches ever of Calvin Rose. When he wasn´t even named Calvin Rose!

 

 Our friend Calvin was supposed to wear goggles, the ones in the middle, which seemed cool to me. Actually they were used in the first version of the Talon #0 cover. After that I was told they wanted his face covered like a typical Talon, but with the hair visible.

 

Editors have the first and last word in every character or cover design!

Making of a cover: RED HOOD AND THE OUTLAWS, starring STARFIRE

I went out of my comfort zone by doing this cover handpainted, with watercolors. The final image has some digital retouch to fix what my skills weren´t able to do right. Anyway I´m happy with it after all. Instead of going digital, I´m going traditional!
