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).
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
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 :)
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.
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.
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!
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.
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 :)
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!
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.
Star Trek characters in a Fantasy setting heh. "When
Ranger Kirk takes on a bounty hunt accompanied by Royal Historian
Spock, they are ambushed by a Klingon patrol while on their journey.
Fortunately, a ragtag team of circus performers encounters them and
saves them from death! Together they embark on the long quest to slay
the great dragon Khan!"
