Description

What a treat to add Fabio Moon to my Cap collection.

I was introduced to the work of Fabio and his brother many years ago when I grabbed a copy of De: Tales off the shelf. It�s been a pleasure to watch them both grow as artists and writers since then, with Daytripper being a highlight for me. An absolutely splendid story that sits with you long after you close the book.

Now, other than a handful of convention sketches and one AMAZING Dark Knight Returns commission here on CAF, it seems there�s not much of his work out in the wild. So, I was pretty surprised when Cadence Comic Art announced they would be taking a cover quality commission list for Galaxy Con, including an option for those who couldn�t go to the show itself.

As soon as I saw the note, I was determined to get on that list. Fabio is an immense talent, and the samples Cadence showed (most of which I�d never seen before) were masterpieces of composition and negative space. Hopefully Fabio will draw commissions more regularly in the future, but I didn�t want to miss out on this rare opportunity in case he doesn�t.

I know it�s cliche, but the scan doesn�t do this one justice. While the composition is brilliant from a glance, there�s elements that rivet the eye in person and keep it lingering long after it could have moved on. The up lighting on the top of Cap�s uniform, for example, is one area I keep staring at and admiring. And maybe it�s the fact Bucky�s face is almost dead center in the piece, but something about the line work of the face and hair demands extra attention as well.

ASK THE ARTIST:
Why this scene? I asked Fabio and he said "Winter Soldier was my favorite MCU movie with Cap, and if I can draw a scene with a nice story instead of just a cool pose, I think I'm more inspired and end up doing a better job."

Incredible cinematic scene needing a well thought out composition to present a mid shot that does justice to all the set design as well as being able to showcase Moon's artistry.

Such a great and fully realized commission. I love the design of the background elements here. I sadly missed out on the commission opportunity this last round. Congrats!

Congrats on a beautiful commission! I've always wanted a piece by Fabio and/or his brother but never could figure out what the subject would be (outside of something from Daytripper). Nice to see Fabio tackle a narrative scene commission.
