Robot Challenge – Nicolás Giacondino
Hi folks! Better late than never, as they say. This month's challenge was a tad difficult, even when it seemed tailored to my skills at drawing machinery and technology. It's the fact that I draw science fiction so often that had me wondering how could I come up with something original amidst

Introducing Nicolas Giacondino!
I've known Nic for years, now. I first found his work over at deviatART.com, where it jumped out at me as being something different and unique, but still very well done. His work with markers is really some of the best I've ever seen and he get's some really fantastic effects that I still don'
