Pacific Rim: Cherno Alpha by Alexander Brick

When one art rep at the local con put out a call for commissions that would be completed before the show, I was introduced to not one (see Art Grafunkel) but two artists that would impact not just my art collection, but my personal life.

Brick was a name which rang no bells, but the examples offered in that call were a sight to behold. Here was a fully formed, insanely talented artist producing Travis Charest level pieces like he was slurping a Tequila (Brick don't drink).

This piece wasn't my first or even my second request. We had been kind of brainstorming on things we liked, with a strong tech impact, because he clearly enjoyed getting deep into intricate detail, odd textures & weird design.

Cherno is easily the most impressive of the Jaegir, so that was a no-brainer.

If I HAD to offer one piece of criticism, I guess Cherno could've been doing his signature fist-punch.
