Mazinger Z, 88Graph ‘Maginger, My Machine (Washi ver.)’ / Kazuhiro Ochi

This is the art print of " Maginger Z" signed by Kazuhiro Ochi in a limited edition.

Comments from Kazuhiro Ochi
Based on the cover illustration I drew 18 years ago for the Italian publication of a comic adaptation by Gosaku Ōta, I completely redrew the illustration for the art prints, except for Dr. Hell and the background.

On the Art Prints, from EDITION88
Initially, by printing white ink on the main character areas to create a base, we were able to create the effect of the printed surface appearing slightly raised and give depth to the art print.

In addition, by applying a glossy sheen to the eyes of Mazinger Z and the shield on a helmet, there's an effect to glow for a moment depending on the angle from which they are viewed, successfully expressing the impact of the artwork.
 
These art prints are made on handmade washi paper made from bamboo and hardwood. Washi is a traditional Japanese paper and the washi we used is particularly produced for EDITION88 in cooperation with a washi studio in Tokushima. It is characterized by the soft texture unique to handmade washi, and when ink is applied to it, it looks three-dimensional. We would be very happy if you could see the product in person.
 
This washi is designed with hand-torn edges, that is why we chose float framing so that this can be seen.
