"For decades now I'm reading Bill Watterson's CALVIN & HOBBES and ofcourse I had to come up with a Comic Stripped version for my favorite comicstrip. I decided to cover a 16" Qee with black and white copies on white and orange paper - so no original comicbook was harmed!
I added loose brushstrokes to adapt the style of Watterson - I know I will never pay justice to the great Watterson but I tried to capture this style anyway." ~shares Germany-based artist/customizer VISEone.
This 16" Qee is currently available for purchase at €650 (price inclusive shipping). Do email
contact@viseone.de for enquiries. And as well we have CEO of TOY2R USA INC;
Kevin Winnik weighing in on the piece too!
"With so many talented artists creating customs each day, every now and then a custom piece comes along that makes you stand up and notice while harkening back to your younger days. ViseOne not only transports us back to the lazy and adventure filled life of Bill Watterson's Calvin & Hobbes - but the detail that he put into the custom simply makes one smile and be astounded at the same time.
Part of ViseOne's continuing Comic Stripped series, this new 16 inch Qee Custom is another fine example of his work and talent. Departing from the hero genre and focusing on one of pop culture's loveable duos, here is a custom that captures the essence perfectly! Toy2R is thrilled to have ViseOne select Qee as his platform for this amazing and clever creation." ~mwntioned Kevin Winnik of Toy2R-USA.
