The Question, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
The Question is blowin' in the wind
Yes, and how many years must a mountain exist
Before it is washed to the sea?
The ink wash blends and weaves The Question right in with the cityscape and even reaches to the stars above! Those JLU appearances did make him a very charismatic figure challenging the animators to show expressiveness even without the face.
Yeah, this is your last Question commission, until you commission a bunch more! It's always fun to see which style Kolins will employ, as he has changed it up so many times over the last 25 years. Throughout his entire career, really.
There's still Question art out there, but come on man, you have to be willing to get into Renee Montoya, she's actually pretty cool! I even picked up a 5 page sequence (I'm a sucker for buying complete sequences!) from the Lois Lane maxi-series featuring Renee AND Vic Sage in a very Film Noir-ish scene including a fight sequence together. There's quite a lot of really nice Question art in that series in fact, but as I said, you have to be willing to broaden your horizons and accept the Montoya version!
I meant this is my last Question commission in hand. There are a few in the works and some long overdue. Until then this one is it.
Fantastic!
So uniquely cool how Scott rendered the negative space, and how he used greys for the shadows. That upward perspective paired with the mist adds to both the heroic and ghostly factors! Great stuff. Congrats!
Question is a great character, and a great choice to get commissions of.
