Mahârâja cover by Artoupan

The very cover of Mahârâja by Artoupan which created quite the buzz upon release :)

This is my very first franco-belgian original cover and I must confess this feel special...and good :)

I believe mr Artoupan had a very very bright future ahead of him in comics ;) His art is so precise and intricate, full of mood!

Here the (sexual) tension is very present between the two characyers but not without some tenderness and playfulness.

Note that the cover was modified digitally (characters positioned closer, inked and colored). Done in pure pencils.

Thanks to the artist and the gallery owner for the opportunity ;)
