Hi guys, 

it's been a while I don't post something here. I was very busy actually, with the makeover of my house. :)

I'm almost done with it (yay!).
Anyway, I worked on new illustrations, but for the moment I can't show you anything and tell you anything... but stay tuned, soon you'll have some news!

In the meanwhile, here you are a little sketch, a personal work I made yesterday.

 

Lilla stjärna. (Little Star)

2013. No ref. Pencil, color lead and watercolor on sketch paper.

She is my tribute to Theres, the main character of "Little Star", last novel by John Ajvide Lindqvist.
I love his books, have you ever read "Let Me In"? Sooner or later I'll draw also Oskar and Eli.

I hope you like her!

Hi guys, how have you been?

I'm sorry for the lack of presence here but I was literally overwhelmed by work in the past month (coloring Star Trek pages is such an hard work to do!)

Anyway, some news for you and some new illustrations.

Let's go! (click to enlarge the pictures)

2013. Photoshop CS4 + Wacom Cintiq 22HD.

No ref used except from some details.

Finally, I can show you this picture. I made this cover art for a brand new magazine called KOF (Kingdom of Fantasy), published by DieGo publishing
As requested, I got inspired by the two movies about the Wizard of Oz, (one of my favourite books, by the way), the brand new one called "The Great and Powerful Oz", directed by Sam Raimi, prequel of the old movie by Victor Fleming, "The Wizard of Oz", in 1939, and this is my tribute to those amazing movies and to Frank Baum too!
As you can see, I didn't want to portrait all actors involved in the new movie, I just wanted to catch some similarities and paint all characters by myself. I still have to go to the cinema and watch the new movie, but working on this cover made me pretty much curious about it (I had to do a lot of research), and the color are pure awesomeness!
Anyway, I hope you like it.
And yes, it is my very first painting with my brand new Cintiq! I love it!

FYI: you can find a workshop of this cover inside the magazine! Out the 29th of March! Stay tuned on www.diegopublishing.com.

No ref used except her right hand (by: [link])

Another piece from Truckers first project "What The Fake!?". Inspired by the Bloody Mary legend. I wrote the story myself.

"[...]Mary screamed and screamed until that darkness filled up her lungs and took her breath away. She struggled until her nails fell off
her fingers, and a weird cold pervaded her body. She finally surrendered, closing her eyes to that last, distant sound of a little bell."

our book: What The Fake!?

2013. Photoshop Cs5 + Wacom Intuos4.

Done from scratch, no ref used except for the ivy leafs and her hands (mine! ).

I made this picture just for fun. Actually, in the beginning she was not supposed to be Poison Ivy (here you can see where I started from: [link]), but while I was painting and finding a good palette, turned aout that way. By the way, I'm in LOVE with Poison Ivy, probably one of my favourit comic female character ever...  and I was thinking about painting a fan art one day... and it came out practically in a random way. I think the whole picture is totally out of print gamut (all these bright green and red colors)  but I just wanted to have fun and don't think too much about technical stuff...
I hope you like it!
Enjoy.

This is my work done in collaboration with my partenr in crime Valerio Schiti 

 As usual, I made the colors and Valerio did the awesome art.

I had a lot of fun coloring this series, it's a shame they stopped it. As for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, these comic books have something really cartoonish, and I tried to keep that mood in the best way possible.

I hope you like them all!

2012. Photoshop CS5 + Wacom Intuos4.

No ref used and no lineart.

Brushes and textures by me and CGTexture.


It's been a while I didn't paint something just for me, so I guess I made it because I had an art block recently. Anyway, no particular meaning, I just wanted to messing around with some brushes and textures and lights, with rough brush strokes.
I was inspired by this article (only in Italian guys, sorry!): L'indefinibile aroma del bianco: it's based on a recent scientific research about the "white scent".

I hope you enjoy it!

Uncensored version: Here

I just want to let you know that I'm involved in a new project, called Truckers. Yes, I know what you're wondering...What is Truckers?
Truckers is a group project, we're all females and we're so proud of it!
Lucca Comics and Games 2012 was outstanding, we had a lot of fun and we sold a lot of copies...

What the Fake!? project

Some refs used for the faces (Maggie Smith and James Franco).This is one of the illustrations I made for the What The Fake!?, an illustrated book project, based on urban legends seen and interpreted as movie posters.

The book is a self publication, written both in Italian and English, and soon we're going to put it online on sale. So stay tuned on our facebook page, Truckers

I hope you like!
