No this is not Rome, this is somewhere near Bolzano at 2500m height. The day before we started our trip to Rome, we went up the mountain with the guys from helios, ate a lot of knödels (yummy, good knödels!) walked back, long after dark, got lost in the dark… but this is another story.
The day after we were in Rome!

We saw a book presentation by Luca Russo and Christiano Silvi, but I don’t have a picture of the authors so I’ll post one of the two musicians playing at the presentation.

The day after I was at Odio L’estate, held a little speech about Giètz! and had the pleasure to meet Alessandra Umiliani (daughter of Piero Umiliani, one of the musicians appearing in the book) and Francesco Argento, who manages the official Umiliani website.

A tourist’s round to see some churches and roman ruins, several glasses of wine, a trip to the Tunué headquarters, a Sunday at the lake playing games and watching buffalos ruminate and we were back on out way home!
It’s been an intense but beautiful weekend.

Friday the 21st of May. Somebody decided it had to be the national comics day. I still don’t know why, and I might never know it.
Sill, I was part of it, at the library Gheduzzi in Verona. Which is a really nice place.

The presentation I made for Giètz! last friday went smoothly. I talked a bit about how the project was born, and about my workflow. I used pictures from the tutorials I made here on the blog (which you can find here and here), which reminds me that I haven’t done the last one of the series yet, the one about the colouring process. Will try to get that one done as soon as possible. In the meantime, here’s some pictures (thanks to Armin for the pics).
