I introduced myself in the "introduce" section. So as you know I am a dutch Illustrator and Graphic designer. I created some digital MOTU fantasy paintings. And for your viewing pleasure: they can be found here. www.hits-design.com/visuals-en-magazine-paginas.html My next project will be a Blackstar fantasy painting in the same style. |

Thanks for posting a link to your work! I like how your MotU pieces have a very early mini-comic feel to them - it's a part of MotU that isn't explored enough, IMO. Definitely looking forward to seeing what you do with your Blackstar piece!

Definitely looking forward to seeing what you do with your Blackstar piece! Thank's a lot! That's right, I love the barbarian (pre filmstion) style MOTU was originally intended to be. The original Alfredo Alcala mini comics rule! Split power sword, one for the good guy and one for the bad guy? Got to love that one! |

Holy sh..t man, this is totaly awesome!!
I really like the fact that you illustrated blackstar with the spark action feature.
Wave 2 figures are my favourite and the only ones that came to Greece.

Thank's man! Yeah I also love the spark Action feature. For me personally the most important feature that makes these figures stand out between all other action figures. |

Yes, I agree the spark action feature is cool! But you know what? Warlock and the trobbit wind machine are even better ha,ha!!!
I mean, if you're into sword & sorcery there is nothing cooler than a warrior ridding a dragon!
And wind machine? Man, I think it's the coolest vehicle among the 80s toylines!!! I happen to own it and I can ensure you it's worth every cent I gave!!!

He is very cool for sure! My son wanted to take him in a dark closet all afternoon so he could see the very cool glow in the dark teeth! |

Yes, they are definately a great inspiration! Also the box art of MOTU and Blackstar are the coolest I have ever seen on toy packages! As a kid I always wanted to create stuff like that. Being blessed with creativity, drawing talent and being a illustrator really is a dream come true! |
