Anton Van Hertbruggen

This is a spread from Anton Van Hertbruggen's 'The dog Nino didn't have'. This definitely has a hand made quality. Some of the angles are not quite right but it gives the piece a sense of charm. I also like the textures that you can see left behind by the brush. I think i like the brush strokes effect because a lot of technology has been made to help us refine illustrations and we can now make designs that are flawlessly clean cut and filled. But i think its good to see a bit of chaos in it, there's less control with a brush and there are lots of streaks and flicks that will be done by accident but those little flaws are what make it look genuine and handmade. 

Magical Game Time

For a while i've been visiting Zac Gorman's page magical game time. I like the small animated touches he makes to his comics, it makes them feel more real. And in some of the cases can make a scene more intense.

Intense storm at sea

I like the use of line, every thing definatly has a hand made quality about it and the loose shapes and colouring kind of remind me of Quentin Blake's work.
