It is just like me to make a pun, but it is out of love. Moebius was the first artist to light a fire under my butt, when I discovered that lone issue of Heavy Metal in the garage back in the early 90's. It was the one with The Long Tomorrow, Approaching Centauri, and Is Man Good. Shortly thereafter I found myself filling notebook pages with immersive drawings of glowing canyon cities and flying cars, clutch of highlighters in one hand, tongue on my lip, totally there. I make no secret of my adoration of his work. If I'm looking Moebic for a while, don't hassle me- Moebius is just settling in for a haunting.

His imagination, attention to detail, and whimsy is alive and well in your work (and many many others that he inspired). Great sketches!
I was pretty troubled to hear of his passing. Seems so many artists are leaving us recently =\ Great sketches though! Really capturing the feel of his work
was gonna say this looks proper old school, embrace it and take us further on a journey into crazy town.
