Artwork Details

DescriptionI was again at Baltimore Comic Con (9/23) and Don Rosa kindly continued my art project there :-)By drawing Scrooge's "Currency Market View" portraits, how old miser is thinking about our fiat currencies. Well, needing to say that Scrooge is following currencies very carefully, of course ;-) This art project started already in 2018 when I was thinking about a "holy triptych" from USD, EUR & JPY, but then extended it a bit idea when visited again in BCCs. As said, and illustrated now here, Scrooge's emotions are in line with market expectations: when having Brazilian Reals in your portfolio, well, things are getting very complicated. You need in-depth analysis and needing to localise to get an idea of what could be expected, and still, all guesses can go wrong. Just look at the historical USD/BRL exchange curve; the Real is not always sinking like many other weak currencies, so how to make market entry and exit? Scrooge is trying to localize of course, now wearing a traditional Brazilian cowboy hat, but he knows how difficult it all is, so can't be too happy... This drawing is done on A3 size paper (30 x 42 cm, 11.7 x 16.5 inches), so it is about twice the size of what normal convention sketches are done (typically in comic book backboards). Liquid gold marker is for sure the best one for this kind of artwork. # DonRosa; #ScroogeMcDuck Social/Sharing |

Pretty fun that Scrooge's expression is based on the money he's about to lose on some currencies around the world.
