Here’s a piece I did late summer/fall for the release of BLAZBLUE Continuum Shift, my apologies as I finally got around to posting this now! This was used as the box-art of the game for European release, including all of the bleed and trim. The final box-art was severely cropped from this version you see [...]

AVENGERS – STYLE TEST
Sneak peak at the “new” style I’ve been working on. This is currently being colored by my good friend and ultra talented painter, Doe. Tried to keep my faces looking like my usual style with a bit of a twist. Hair and facial features were more rendered, blacks were done with heavy hatching, pencils were completely eliminated by going straight to ink with *gasp* a ball point pen! Hopefully the end result is something a little more raw, with a little more energy and realism [...]
CHIU-STREAM FIGHTING GAME CHARACTER CONCEPT!
CHIU-STREAM was kind enough to have me on the show for an in-depth interview last week and in case you missed it the sketch challenge for all the viewers was to, “Create your own Fighting Game Character!” You can still catch my full interview on Youtube. This was a welcome challenge for me as I have many ideas for characters for my own vision of SF Universe [...]
WHITE QUEEN & THE PHOENIX
This was a custom commission piece I had taken from my online store of the two sexy ladies of X-men, Emma Frost as White Queen and Jean Grey as The Phoenix! Tried to do something different with both the composition and the gestures. Didn’t want a prototypical super-heroine feel to this, rather a more sensual depiction of our characters.
STREET FIGHTER TRIBUTE
Here is my contribution to Udon’s trade paperback Street Fighter Tribute! It’s still in the process of being colored by myself (for the second time) and hopefully it will be completed by this summer’s convention season, where i will be selling prints of this! Let me just say, it hasn’t been easy!
NEW WORLD ARMY
I’ve been working on this concept for seemingly forever! It’s my, “baby” so to speak, my own personal property that I hope to further develop in the future and eventually release as a trade paperback. It’s called, New World Army and it takes place in a post-apocalyptic Earth where different tribes fight for survival and territory. Colors by Arnold Tsang.
