Guillaume Poux aka El Gunto is a French freelance illustrator, currently based in Barcelona, Spain. He has worked on several comics for publishers Bamboo and Soleil, and worked as a concept artist and character designer for the entertainment industry.
Poux studied illustration at the famous Ecole Emile Cohl art school between 2000 and 2004. After graduating, he illustrated for children’s books and magazines before releasing his first Comic book Lenny Valentino, Tome 1: Poison Town in 2006. It was written by Fuat Erkol and Christian Simon, and was followed up with Lenny Valentino, Tome 2: Dead End a year later. He has also worked with writer Jérôme Félix on one-shots Mort & Entêté, and Le Plan, both published by Bamboo.
Alongside his editorial work, Poux works as concept artist, designing characters and developing visuals for Duncan Studio, Gameloft, Nerd Corps, Triotech and Axis Animation. Through it all, he always finds time to produce a pretty pin-up, or two.
