Other than the conventional ink and Pencil I use Photoshop for coloring on PC.

Where is the place you would like to work or be an Intern if you had a choice?

Both on the Comics and Design side i have many and different inspirations and aspirations, if i had to name some of the most intriguing: comic-wise i'd like to pubish some work in the states with Image and Marvel while in europe i'd like to work with Soleil editions. While on the design-side of the coin i'd like to apply by designing characters for cartoons productions.

Who do you think are the top character designers out there?

I find most inspiring the works of Sean Galloway, Enrique Fernandez, Benoit Springer, Claire Wendling and Stuart Immonen.

What are some of your favorite character designs which you have seen?

John Silver and Dr.Doppler from Treasure Planet are both from mhy top-list, while the whole Samurai Jack concept makes me enthusiastic.

What is your most favorite subject to draw? And why?

The freedom of shapes\possibilities by drawing monster\robots things is absolutely undeniable.

What inspired you to become an Artist?

Since i was a kid is absolutely the chance to give life to images and feelings i have in mind, the emotion of creating something that didn't exist is second only to the ability of creating life itself.
