magicaloctopus asked: What about face models of Hella, Hector and Batu? :))) Cause I have a strong feeling that I saw Hector and Hella somewhere in real life XD Like on tv or in the Internet :) Also I've just reread some issues and I noticed that you are very good at drawing facial expressions and features. I mean most of comic artists draw characters with similar faces but all Supurbia characters look absolutely different *______*

Thanks so much!  Love doing all the faces and character stuff.

Hella and Batu didn’t have super well-defined models - they’re a mix of a bunch of different influences.  For Hector, he was described as having a sort of long, masculine, 70s build.  I took that and threw in some Brad Pitt.

epigenetics asked: So I'm really loving Supurbia! :D I watched this interview you did with Grace on one of her YouTube shows, and there was a mention of suggestions/notes she'd given you about face models (not sure if that's the right term, sorry) for the characters (I recall seeing Jon Hamm for Sovereign... and thinking it was so perfect). I was wondering if you had such "models" for all the main characters, and if you could share who they were? (I'm particularly curious about Gio, Paul and Alexis, haha.) :)

So glad you like the book!!  Yeah, I had specific people in mind when designing the characters.  The casting process really helps as a base to build the design around.

Here’s a few:

Sovereign: Jon Hamm (Grace nailed it on this one!)

Paul and Gio: Ever watch Million Dollar Decorators?  :)  These 2 were influenced by Jeffrey Alan Marks and Ross Cassidy.

Alexis: Naomi Watts/January Jones (Things really clicked with this design in volume 2 after I saw a pic of Naomi Watts looking especially icy/elegant.)

Tia: Laila Ali

Ruth: Martha Stewart

Eve: Ginnifer Goodwin

Jeremy: Jesse Tyler Ferguson/Ewan McGregor

Zari: Willow Smith (I may have been obsessed with Whip My Hair at the time)

Thank you!

My commission list is actually closed for half figure and full figure commissions, but I should have a couple spots open for head sketches - those are $35. Stop by the booth and say hi!
