Description
For fun.I really love the AKIRA graphic novels. The movie is okay, but it's VERY condensed. For me, the novels work way better. But that's just my opinion. Plus, Otomo's art in those books is absolutely mind blowing.

The movie was REALLY great in my opinion though, guess that means I'll have to check out the graphic novels.
Awesome sketch though, you do all of these characters complete justice!

But it's really hard to find the comix anymore.
I listen to the soundtrack on my commute. Burns out the memory of work.

Hey M!
Thanks! I think the secret is mainly trying not to care too much about how the ink turns out. That and my magic brush, of course!
It's good to see you posting new drawings!!

Fantastic work. I'd love to see you do a book like this of your own. Love that rough ink look to it.

Well, that should be in the works. For now, you can check out my pages in the PUSH comics! Same style there!

Yep! It's always fun to see something of your own, too, though.

Oh yes. And I know it'll get better, because Tetsuo's hair is still short.

You've done the material justice. Great line work, it captures Kaneda's smug attitude.

Kaneda's smug attitude till about 1/4 way through the story, you mean... I recall something wipes that look off his face!
