My New Colin Wilson Pieces!! Judge Dredd and Blueberry Goodness!!
Heya guys.
On my trip to Melbourne. I managed to catch up with Colin Wilson. Hes a great artist and its a crime that not more people know him.
These are the two pages I got off him.
Blueberry
Judge Dredd

Colin is probably better known for his work for European publishers (in particular "Blueberry") but has done a number of US books (Losers, Point Blank and Battler Britton) in the last few years.
You can read more about him here as well as a listing of his work - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colin_Wilson_(comics)
Best,

Gadzooks, Paul, you're on a roll. These are bada$$! I wanna see a bigger scan of these. Especially that Blueberry page. There looks to be an insane amount of work on that page. This stuff is pure quality. I'm only sorry I just recently became aware of Colin's work. It's incredible. Congrats!

Thanks Chris.
Colins work is amazing. I love his European style of art. I dont know if that is the right description but theres just something about it that I cant quite put my finger on but it catches my eye.
He is also an awesome bloke. Which is a plus!!
I will definitely try to get a better scan of the work. Its just hard. The Blueberry page is the bigger than a double page splash. Aparently the art used to be done so it can be split into three and put into newspapers. Like Modesty Blaise comics. Its very detailed. Definitely one of art pieces that I am going to get framed!!

Heya Alex,
I will do that when I get home. I dont have it on me here at work.
I do know for a fact that when I last saw him he had not done it. He was a little busy catching up with some Dredd work. He had only drawn a small batman piece for someone else.
It was nice. It had a Mike Mignola feel to it. Yes I am sure that it was not yours. I asked. See. Always thinking!
