Something Special

This Christmas, I got a wonderful present from Achdé. A copy, fresh from the press, of his newest Lucky Luke* comic album...


...including this incredibly wonderful illustrated inscription. What a gift:


So, now it's on me to give away some goodies to Achdé and Crisse... wait and see :)

*For those who are not familiar with this very cowboy: Lucky Luke (Wiki article)

FRIEND, EXCUSE ME FOR TAKING ITS TIME. I LIVE IN BRAZIL AND I was VERY HAPPY IN SEEING ITS WORK. HE GAVE ME A LOT OF HAPPINESS. It is AS IF I was PART of that WORLD THAT YOU CREATED. I HAVE A DOUBT. Why do YOU USE BLUE PENCIL to CREATE THE SKETCHES? BECAUSE THE BLUE? THEN do they PLACE THE LINES IN BLACK?

VOCE CONHECE UM LIVRO CHAMADO; LUCKY LUKE HISTOIRE D'UN DESSIN ANIMÉE? É UM LIVRO MUITO RARO E MUITO IMPORTANTE PARA QUEM GOSTA DO UNIVERSO DE LUCKY LUKE. ABRAÇOS ALEX.

Florian Satzinger said...

Yeah, a great present! Big, big thanks to Achdé!

Alexandre, the blue rough sketch comes before doing the dark outlines. It works like an analog layer system in a way.
