Customer Reviews

Here is why Sala is such a master of the medium:

Story: No need to overthink or question why he tailors the story the way he does- the insanity makes perfect sense and the sanity is prescient! Art: Wonderfully weird is such a signature way that oozes quality and preparation. The details are as to-die-for as are the characters who are killed by or in the presence of them. His colors are even his own which is hard to find in this photo-shop palette parade of digital do-it-with-a-mouse in a single day dryness. Look at the mask/cape of Enigmatix (IAGGrotesquely) for his mastery of TEXTURE on a flat page!
