Blue Hood

Here’s the hero I came up with for the Heróica Zine (did you know you can download it for free over athttp://ricardobessa.com/HEROICA-Zine? Go get it!). He’s inspired on the Iberian emerald lizard, which I tried to show mostly with the suit’s color scheme.

Being a part of this zine feels awesome. So many cool people. Seriously, go check it out. The art is great and there are so many cool ideas for heroes!‪ Read it, dig it, share it!

Classic Figures of Terror - Dorian Gray

I was invited to be a part of the Classic Figures of Terror exhibition, a traveling exhibition that features different interpretations, by many great portuguese illustrator, of classic figures of terror - from Dracula to Frankenstein's Monster to Cthulhu, you'll find many familiar faces there. I got the character Dorian Gray, and it was fun to figure out what to do while trying to maybe be different from the obvious interpretations of the character.
I was happy with how it came out, and people who visited the exhibition (which unveiled at 2015's edition of the horror movie festival moteLX) gave me some good feedback.

Maurice Moss

Hey guys, it’s time for another Mike and Carla Jam! It’s been a while since we jammed and I missed it, so it felt great to get back on track. Our theme this time around was Comedy Shows.

I’ve recently started watching The IT Crowd and I’ve surrendered to it. It’s an hilarious show, and I’m currently on its final season. It’s funny, when I started watching, I didn’t think I’d like it - shows with laugh tracks kind of annoy me now - but it really grew on me. So, I chose to draw Moss. He’s a sort of unique looking character - mostly because of his hair - and he was a lot of fun to draw. Initially I wanted to draw more of the gang - Roy, Richmond, Jen - but I’ve been drawing very little lately due mostly to reasons related to my day job, I feel rusty and I feared I wouldn’t do a good job if I tackled them all.

Anyway, it felt great to just draw for fun again, and I can’t wait until the next jam. Stay tuned toMike’s awesome tumblr to see what he did for the jam!

Kubrick's Garage #44

Latest installment of Kubrick’s Garage, poking fun at the fact that, once again, there is no portuguese movie at the Oscars.

We’re also trying out a new layout, without the header, to put the focus right on the comic. Let me know what you think, guys.
