Description
Like everyone else who attended, I've got to say OAX was such a blast! Congrats to Bill and Kasra for doing such heavy lifting! I picked up this Pre-OAX commission by the immensely talented Matt Allison from Sean at Athenaeum Comic Art! His inking skills are some of the best today. I chose Colossus because it would be a layup for him to have texture and the power conveyed in such a neat and tidy package! Look out for more Athenaeum awesomeness as they made a big impact at this show! Don't forget to ask Bill for 2027 Pre-OAX commissions on the next CAF update! And make sure he hears about the hotel food.

Very rich colours, and Colossus is given a hydraulic feel. Now I'm left wanting to know about the hotel food. Were the bread rolls so large that you needed Colussus to lift them up?

A very succinct recap, and an even better piece of art! The farm boy still has what it takes to clear a field.

Great piece, I think you should push for OAX West for future shows.

Wow! Sick!!!! What a Matt Allison piece, and those colors! I'm so glad I was there to "see" you pick this one up. I was on a lot of pain killers and muscle relaxers, but I'm still pretty sure it was you!

I think I just missed seeing you pick this up! Athenaeum and its artists were indeed the highlight of OAX for me and I expect them to make an even bigger splash next year! Congratulations on this colossal piece!

You can tell colossus likes zingers, how else would he get his strength!

Wow, I love Colossus as much as anyone, but this has to be the most unique commission idea I've ever seen! Tell us, how did you come up with the concept of Colossus standing facing forward, while reaching up to fondle a pair of sloppy, alien boobs?!? Awesome!

Matt Allison is the world’s number one artist at drawing segmented metal/coils/wiring and this drawing is a brilliant example of him really flexing his muscles. Excellent choice of subject matter – you are just like Alan Moore who always played to the strengths of his collaborators; and like him you’re none too shabby as a wordsmith neither.

I was so excited to have been able to record video of your OAX Colossus pickup . your face lit up like that of wee child on Christmas morning. But alas, when I got home and began sorting through the clips, the whole shot with you was strangely out of focus.

Hawaiian shirts tend to be hard to focus upon.

Awesome Colossus commision. Matt Alliuson did a great job capturing the look of the Russian mutant. I love the way he conveyed the power that Piotr possesses. Fun to see how he emphasized the shiny surfaces of Piotr's metallic skin! Fabulous OAX pick-up, congrats!

Matt understands dynamism, whether it's a crazy creator-owned character like Cankorr or everyone's favorite Rasputin!

Unreal color work, especially the sheen effect on the armored skin!  Allison showing out for sure.  Congrats!
