For these works, he won the Troféu HQ Mix in 2002 in the category "best colorist" and the Prêmio Angelo Agostini in 2003 and 2004 as "best art-technique" (award for colorists and letterers). He also won the Troféu HQ Mix in 1999 for "best national miniseries" by Lua dos Dragões.[2][3][4]

In 2009, Vazzios published the independent graphic novel Uiara e os filhos do Eco. The book was produced with funding from the São Paulo State's Secretary of Culture and addresses ecological issues. The script was made by Vazzios and Jussara Nunes. He also shares the pencils with Monique Novaes and Everton Teles Valério.[8]
