Fantastic 4 Blank cover drawing

Only my 2nd blank cover work! Loved doing this as everything fell into place :D

Doctor Strange

This has been a challenging drawing to tackle due to the complexity. I had to do a dozen sketches and even then I was not completely satisfied with the final sketch lol. I usually work with 2-3 different "layers" to compose an illustration, but this one required roughly 3-5 and there was tons of erasing and redrawing of lines, and even then I felt like I was figuring out the illustration along the way, never sure of how it would turn out haha... Quite happy with the final version though there's still room for improvement :) Let's talk about coloring it later lol

Edit: Finally managed to complete colours on this! Very happy with the results as I feel I've improved on my colouring (though I still badly need to speed up lol).

 

Sleep Well, Sweet Night

A tribute to Robin Williams. RIP :( May you find peach in defeat and victory in peace. Adieu!

This is inspired by one of my all-time favorite films, The Fisher King.

Hooked on a Feelin' (Guardians of the Galaxy)

My little tribute to Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy which opened recently. Was really pumped with this one as I felt I had elevated my pencils and colouring as close as it could get to Marvel standard (I hope hahahaha) :p

The Original Team (Pokemon)

I had a spontaneous burst to draw the original team from Pokemon lol. Not a cartoon from my generation, but clearly it's one that has affected the lives of many 80s/90s kids' childhoods heh. Did a more edgy spin to the style :)

You Know Nothing (Jon Snow updated with Ygritte)

Reposting a "remastered" (lol) version of Jon Snow with Ygritte. Did a little too well on her so the quality differs slightly heh heh...

Sports Legends portraits

 I got a job to draw B/W portraits of sports legends as decoration for a store. This was a fantastic opportunity for me to expand on and develop my previous ventures with portraiture. I love B/W stark graphic linework in particular so it was great to push myself to greater heights of details and get paid for it :) Coming soon to a store (which I cannot mention yet) near you! 

Gaming is Serious Business!

Just something quick from my new sketch book - I've been putting off for a few months now. I owe my mates in Final Fantasy 14 (an online multi-player game) a portrait of our characters heh.

Godzilla!

Done for the TNP GOdzilla contest. Really pushed the limits on the details for this one heh, but I'm not new to drawing scaly skin heh... just never did it on such a large scale! I may consider colouring it later.

 

Hellboy (Anung Un Rama)

A piece I did for the Multiversity Comics online “20 Years of Hellboy” Art Contest. Helluva (no pun intended) lot of work but extremely gratifying! Felt myself improving! :)

Oh and I am a huuuge Mike Mignola fan. He is truly legendary, I hope to meet him someday!

"Spectrum" cover and interior illustrations

Cover and interior illustrations for a local magazine/newsletter "Spectrum". Sometimes commercial work gets a little bit extra interesting heh heh...
 

Fantasy Creatures

McDonald's Samurai Burger Returns ads (artwork only)

Whoosh! Been a really busy time with scarcely any time to update lol. Here's a doozy of a project - providing artwork to be animated (by the lovely people at Iceberg) into these two ads for McDonald's.

You're Next!

I really love Horror films heh. This was done for a Threadless contest in conjunction with the launch of the new horror film You're Next! But I'll also let this be an overall dedication to my love for awesome horror films.

Jared & Edivita

A very delayed wedding gift turned very delayed anniversary gift (lol). A very lovely (and warm) wedding at the Armenian Church off Stamford held in June 2012. Intimate and awesomely romantic church.

 

Galaxy rangers! No guts no glory!

This is a tribute piece to one of my favorite cartoons from the 80s. Great characters and exciting storylines made this seriously underrated series forever etched in my memories :)

Angels & Demons

Finally, the Thor threadless contest! I botched it up a little here and there, but it was an interesting experience - I had actually hatched it up with more details, but the cleaner one turned out better! :)

Featuring the eternal archenemies, Thor versus Loki!

Update: Uughs the design was rejected because they felt the wings can only be design-based. Having the wings on the characters is misleading the original design of the characters.

I revised a version with "wing-like" capes instead. Hope that gets accepted! *crossing fingers*

Update: Yay! It's in the running so here's hoping!

Overture

Inspired by the coming return of Sandman by Neil Gaiman, drawn for the first time by the incredible J.H. Williams III (Another inspiration!) :)

Man of Steel

Inspired by the Man of Steel trailers. The film didn't turn out as perfect as I'd hoped it would be but I loved it anyway for the themes and biased reasons heh heh.
