Some explorations on The void for the film #thunderbolts aka #newavengers. We explored different possibilities that gave nods to the comic and tried to find the right look that was in line with the story that was being told. #film #marvelstudios #disney #conceptart
early costume concepts for #sentry for the #thunderbolts #newavengers film. one of my initial passes was leaning towards a more military fatigues. As the story evolved they so did our concepts. Really fun exploring these possibilities. #character #concept #illustration #film #superhero #characterdesign #marvelstudios #disney

Led by the amazing @andyparkart , director of visual development. I am incredibly proud to have worked alongside amazing artists such as @constantinesekeris@rodneyimages@jwsze@wes_burt@janaschirmer@jihyeleeart@jsmarantz #concept #characterconcept #marvelstudios #film
Personal piece of Vash the stampede.
I was reorganizing my hard drive for preparing the #conceptdesignacademy demo for #lightbox2024 and found this. It is my personal take of the character Vash from the comic called Trigun. It was sitting in my computer for a while. I am glad that I have something to show. Thanks to everyone who dropped by at lightbox. Great to have met familiar faces and a lot of new ones.

Early pass on #cassandranova. There was an emphasis on her fashion so I tried to give her this high fashion look but still is reminiscent of her comic look for this pass. Loved Emma Corrin’s performance. #marvelstudios #disney #deadpoolandwolverine #emmacorrin #cassandranova #void
A bunch of us got to do some Wolverine variants! This was my take on patch :) I’m sure you’ve already seen but be sure to check out all the amazing work done by @ryan_meinerding_art@andyparkart@wes_burt This piece will also be included in the upcoming The Art of Deadpool & Wolverine #marvelstudios #wolverine #patch #deadpool #deadpoolandwolverine
Early on I was given an opportunity to do an early pass on #elektra. Such a treat to be able to help design and paint this character. This version was meant to show that she has been in the void for a while and her costume has changed through wear and tear and fixes and adjustments. This piece will also be included in the upcoming The Art of Deadpool & Wolverine #marvelstudios #marvel #disney #conceptart #illustration #sai
