Now, with this educational web log, it is wonderful that they can be shared with an even larger audience.<br /><br />The newest post in my "Sequential Art Primer" series showcases some pages from Moebius' "Arzach" which continue to be a similar source of inspiration.<br /><br />Namasté,<br />ShanthShanth Enjetihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07349550967504447034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4820410960569996127.post-45523548035548098132011-09-10T17:07:04.672-07:002011-09-10T17:07:04.672-07:00Incredible!

I fell in love with these designs (as well as the work of Moebius) as a college student, and when I started this web log, I knew that I wanted to showcase this collection of work and the paintings of Sensei Akira Kurosawa in some of my first few posts.<br /><br />To the thousands of you flocking to this link, thank you for sharing your enthusiasm for this collection of artwork (created by Moebius in the 1980's) that I also find so much inspiration in.<br /><br />This web log is meant to be an educational tool where visual storytellers can find quality resolution scans of the visual work by master artists as well as information on how myth, metaphor, and psychology inform our pursuits.<br /><br />Responses like the ones you've been sending make the hours of scanning and image clean-up well worth it.<br /><br />Namasté,<br />ShanthShanth Enjetihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07349550967504447034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4820410960569996127.post-69037810168754035012011-08-14T16:47:34.113-07:002011-08-14T16:47:34.113-07:00Here's an additional Moebius concept for Willo...Here's an additional Moebius concept for Willow that is missing from the group- <br /><br />http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DznxFkyxcMI/TkhdzbBxJwI/AAAAAAAAClY/pKf746GIASA/s1600/FusionsPg51.jpg<br /><br />Guy is sucha legend.<br />This and the other Willow concepts can be found in;<br /><br />Moebius: Fusions<br />128 pgs HC<br />Casterman (1995)<br />ISBN 2-203-34605-1<br /><br />Also- I twitter about art books and art shows so check me out @en_b<br /><br />Rather inspired by your blog post so probably will do some peeks into my Moebius art book collection in the next week or two.<br />Cheers<br />ianenbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03639409975414487664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4820410960569996127.post-70005780541959156792011-08-14T15:41:36.459-07:002011-08-14T15:41:36.459-07:00Wow, neat.

Maybe... a sequel will be considered, and these ideas can be used. <br /><br />With the Moebius drawing video, it would have been nice if the camera was on the left side of him, since he's right-handed. It was tough to see the drawing at times.rgratzerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18039142526218317613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4820410960569996127.post-91567208754205509472010-05-18T15:13:57.799-07:002010-05-18T15:13:57.799-07:00Thank you for posting this work and for the insigh...Thank you for posting this work and for the insight into his role in projects I wasn't aware of. For me, part of what I find so remarkable about Moebius' work is his ability to visually invent using mostly his own personal visual mythology. I can see the 60's psychadelia influence in his form calligraphy but it's a note versus the theme. Please speak some to the forms he uses as you see them with your perspective on character design. He's one of the more singular illustrators and designers of our time.Kevin Mowrerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18185897154771617493noreply@blogger.com
