Ever wonder what visuals inspired the artists working on Rip Curent? Well, today's your lucky day! I've just created a brand new gallery, with images of the real-life actors I 'cast' as the main characters, juxtaposed with their counterpart from the comic.
I'm so pleased with how Patricio captured the essense of Rip Current in the pencils -- he used the references I provided but managed to bring a special life to everyone... soon after I saw his sketches, my imagined scenes with them changed to match their new 'selves'.
Just one of the many ways Rip Current was brought to life by the artists involved, Patricio, Christian and Aya, for which I'm eternally grateful.
I'd love to hear what you think!

Very cool choices Maria, I like how you lined up your gallery with the fantasy and what Patricio did in the end.

Thanks!! I've been thinking of doing this for a while, and putting the gallery together reminded me once again of how amazing this whole process has been. To see those characters literally come alive... yowzah!!! But to get the full impact, at least from the point of view of a creator, is really in seeing the two side-by-side.
