Ask DN: Favorite illustrators?
9 years ago from Alex Hague, Cofounder at kepler.org
Would love to hear what DN folks are into these days. I've been enjoying Olimpia Zagnoli's work lately. Does anyone know of other illos with a similar style?

One of my favorite has always been David Lanham.

+1, my all time favourite illustrator too! David Lanham

Same, same, same.
His work is incredible, the character creation alone is wonderful, but combined with the colours and lighting. Just brilliant.
Diego Lafuente, 9 years ago
+1 to him. I love his style.

Here's a few I've come across recently:

A little bit of a trendier style, but I think Dropbox has built one of the best illustration teams around.
Especially guys like Ryan Putnam & Justin Pervorse

I can't believe nobody mentioned Von Glitschka by now.

Been loving Owen Davey's work. Has similar soft/retro/stylized figures reminiscent of Zagnoli's.

Dave Mckean was my favorite one when I was younger... Now I like Tomás Hijo, Shaun Tan, Pejac and Javier Jaén. All of them are great!
Oh! I forgot Jamie Hewlett. I love his work too.
Take a look to those four artists: Shepard Fairey, Ryan Mcginness, Brian Rea and Todd St.John. I don't know why, but they remind me of Olimpia Zagnoli's work...

Some of them are game designers, other are more local here in Mexico, but I love every piece they make.
Afnizar Nur Ghifari, 9 years ago Ryan Putnam
