Matt Speroni is one fine artist

Like holy damn, those are awesome.

If I had money, I'd totally ask for a comission. Instead, I pass the buck to the rest of the forum.

Hey guys if you have money ask Matt for a comission because I have a sneaking suspicion that you won't be disappointed.

I thought the same thing when I saw these (which you're most likely referring to).

Unfortunately I don't have any money to spare either. And no ideas for a decent comission.

He already did a commission for me. I almost feel like I ripped him off, what with how good it was.

I am totally ripping him off with every page of HIKYM. Don't tell him though.

He's been working on a commission for me, and let me just say, Matt's a wonderful artist but an even better human being -- he's been a pleasure to converse with, really receptive and communicative throughout the entire process, and he's handled the project with the utmost dignity and professionalism.

And of course, he's incredibly talented. (But y'all already knew that.)

Awww, that means a lot, thanks

. I just wish I had more of yours done to show you. I'm getting there though! (note: it was an Email from Solid Snake that sorta got the ball rolling on the White Mage pic)

And thanks all for starting this thread! What a nice gesture

A good thing about working with someone you've been a fan of for so long (been reading 8-bit for about 8 years now) is that even though you might be getting ripped off it doesn't really feel like you're being ripped off. He lucked out :p

And the Persona 4 pic NonCon was referencing can be found here.

To be honest, Matt's work is quite better than some of the stuff we see around in comics these days. I like how his characters can have Heroic Proportions but without looking ridiculous. It always look good.

However, this thread title was the third time i saw his name and read "Matt Pepperoni" and now i'm starting to feel bad about it

I think one of my favorite drawings that he's done was one he did of an older version of Chie from Persona 4. He pretty much nailed it.

You know whats weird? Yesterday, I was just thinking "I wonder when we're going to see that Red Mage wallpaper".

Oh, I've got an idea. But yeah, same trouble otherwise. Car insurance or commission... car insurance or commission... tough choice.

But I can't drive a picture, no matter how awesome it looks or how many wheels are drawn in it.

Can't say anything bad about the work I've seen. It looks great. Is that Deborah in the second wallpaper? Yow! I'd be fooled. Not hard to see why red mage wears the mask for his male persona.
