Going back to my Darth Vader drawing, I decided to give him his original costume. After playing around with the colours, I felt that the black costume cloth doesn’t pop out. However making the costume cloth the same colour as his cape seems to work a bit better.

Just some more sketches of my character, Dimitri, working out. These drawings from my personal instructional exercise book project. The idea behind the book is to demonstrate some basic Dumbbell exercises in a fun and easy to understand way.

Here is Marvel Comics’ Russian Super Solider, The Red Guardian. For this illustration I did a combination of using the costume found in the comics, but giving him the body shape from ‘The Black Widow’ movie. I just liked the idea of this super hero character who has let himself go a bit and gained a “bit” of a gut.

An illustration of the Marvel’s trickster God character, Loki, but this time the female version as seen in some 2008 Marvel comics and the 2021 Loki TV series. This illustration was done for my friend, Ray Ray, as she is a massive Loki fan, so I did a drawing of her as Lady Loki. This is why this version of Lady Loki has red hair, same as Ray Ray’s, although I think the red hair works much better against the green than the black hair or blonde hair does.

This is me just messing around with Marvel’s Iron Man Armour design. I had the idea of making the armour more like a robot, so the person inside the armour would operate it like a biped tank. This is illustration is me just working out the colours and seeing how the armour will look, there will be more finished and I’ll be demonstrating the size as well. But I do like it’s round size, it very much opposite to what we expect from an Iron Man armour.

The whole “Instagram Vs. Reality” joke always makes me chuckle. For those who are unfamiliar with the “Instagram Vs. Reality” gag, it’s when a photo of a person or event is taken and then highly polished and highly edited so it looks too good to be true. Then that photo is compared to a photo of the actual reality of the person or event for both laughs and to prove how fake Social Media can be.

So this is the Lifeguard edition of that gag and since I used to work at the Leisure Centre, I know that Lifeguards that appear on Baywatch are pure fantasy.

These illustrations are of my friend, Shereen, dressed up as a little Kaiju monster. Kaiju being a Japanese word for giant monster, like Godzilla. I would like to return to these illustrations and try to demonstrate the massive size of Shereen-zilla. I did some tests by adding some basic blocks for buildings to see how it would look like to have Shereen stomp her way through Down Town Tokyo.

I think there is a nice little Juxtaposition of having a cute monster causing such destruction.

Just some random sketches of heads and faces. Just playing around with some different expressions.

Two Henchmen concept character designs I created for a comic idea I had a while ago. Fat Man and Little Boy, named after the two Atomic Bombs used in World War II, are the muscle for the two sisters who run the gang known as the Nukes. There is a lot of tweaking and redesigning I want to do to these characters, but one thing I do like is Fat Man’s power pack where he uses two oversized Duracell batteries to power up his Electro Knuckle Dusters.

A selection of some Star Wars characters, so here are some illustrations of Chewbacca, the Bounty Hunter Boba Fett and the ultra cute baby Grogu.

A couple of illustrations of everyone’s favourite Princess of the stars, Leia. The first image of Leia is actually for a friend of mine who is massive Star Wars fan. So I decided to draw her as her favourite Star Wars character, this is why I drew some serious bangs on her.

Here is an illustration I did for my cousin’s little girl. Since she loves Illumination Entertainment’s Minions, my cousin asked me if I could draw her daughter as a Minion. I thought I would try and be a bit more creative than drawing her as a massive yellow ‘Tic Tac’ mint, so I had the idea of her covering herself in yellow paint and splashing the paint all over the place. I can imagine this has happened to few parents.

To quote Christina Aguilera, “What a girl wants, what a girl needs is cake!” Okay, they might not be exact lyrics to her hit song “What A Girl Wants” but I think she would agree with me. Here are a couple of illustrations based off of a friend of mine who will happily admit that Cake is her best friend.

The concept design for my little Frog Knight character. I used the tree frog as the base model for my little Frog Knight because it doesn’t look to weird when I put him on his hind legs. His little armour does need a lot of work, for example, I don’t like his helmet, but I still love the idea and basic model of my little Frog Knight.

The breakaway star from the movie ‘Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse,’ it’s Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham! I did a fair bit of redesigning with this character, mainly because I felt his design in the comics and the movie wasn’t very Pig-like. So I made him way chubbier and gave him trotters.

Marvel’s web slinging wonder, Spider-Man. For this illustration of Spider-Man, I decided to have a bit of fun with the costume, I added some elements from the first Amazing Spider-Man movie and changed the blue to black. The greatest thing about Spider-Man’s costume is there is no way you could ever beat the original design, so it’s always fun playing around with it.

As you can probably guess, this illustration is based off of the character Pennywise from the Stephen King book, It. I was looking at the 2017’s movie design for Pennywise and thought the costume was way too busy and fussy. So I decided to give him a basic clown outfit and completely limit the amount of colours I could use.

I like the goofy cartoon smile, makes him look funny, scary and weird all at the same time.

Here’s an illustration of the main character from ZA/UM’s role playing game, ‘Disco Elysium’, Mr. Harrier “Harry” Du Bois. This illustration was created using a combination of using pencil, pen and ink and Adobe Illustrator. I want to return to this character one day and make him much dirtier, since that fits his character much more.

This should be an illustration that every Cat owner can relate to. No matter how much you adore and you love your cat, it’s a fact that your cat probably thinks you’re, well, a bit of a dick.

With the Netflix show, Cobra Kai, being a massive hit and entering it’s fourth season, I thought, “How can we make this TV spin of 80’s hit movie, The Karate Kid, even more popular?”

The answer, my friends, is simple. Add cats! So I present to you, The Karate Kat!
