I'm a comic book artist, Dinosaur enthusiast, and slavic-culture nerd. What more could you need?

Povorot, it’s been a long while and I can only hope you’ll still visit here every so often, if only to take a look at some of the works by other artists.
I’d really love to discuss some things with you (especially a possible commission) but I also wanted to point you in the direction of one of the more intriguing exercises in extensive worldbuilding I’ve bumped into on the ‘Net.
Your talent is so inspiring.
You expertly blend the detail and grandeur of Moebius with such amazing economy of line work in a way that is both gestural and incredibly refined.
And your color work is phenomenally atmospheric.
An art thief that has been plaguing DA for two months has your artwork:
I‘ve also been pondering a question for some time and would like to ask - have you ever read A DIFFERENT FLESH or the ATLANTIS novels of Mr Harry Turtledove?
These books represent two alternate histories, each of which produced a curious natural history (In the case of A DIFFERENT FLESH, modern humans don’t reach the Americas until the Age of Discovery, where they find a non-human species of hominids in residence, amongst other things: in the ATLANTIS trilogy* a subcontinent split off from North America and drifted away into the Atlantic Ocean, creating an ecological ark more or less the size of Appalachia - basically becoming a sort of mid-Atlantic New Zealand on a continental scale).
As you might imagine, while reading through these novels the thought “povorot would absolutely NAIL this setting” frequently occurred to me - if you ever read one or more of these books (I’d suggest starting with A DIFFERENT FLESH, which is a done-in-one with a strong Pulp element) one hopes you would agree.
*I usually refer to it as THE UNITED STATES OF ATLANTIS, the title of the second novel in the series, to help distinguish it from all those other Atlantean fictions.
Dear povorot, I wanted to pop in and say how happy it makes me to see you posting on deviantArt.com once more - very, Very Happy indeed!
You alive?
