Description

So this is a color guide for Akira. However, it is not colored by Steve Oliff but by Katsuhiro Otomo himself as one of his reference guides for Steve. I picked this up in a recent drop from FelixComicArt and Felix gave me some additional background on this piece. This is the only motorcycle colored by Otomo and it served as the master reference for the rest of Steve's work on the series. How cool is that!

Looks great as this kind of direction is probably how he guided the production of the movie.

I thought Nick Pitarra owned this piece? Maybe you're him, lol. Either way, fantastic piece, congrats!

It is already a feat to own a page like this, but to add on something so iconic as the bike? Just takes it to a whole new level. Congrats!
