TELLOS. 2017. Photoshop, 5400 × 4175 px.

This was my contribution to last year's huge Tellos tribute honoring Mike Wieringo. I only did 2 pages, but a lot of detail went into it. I relied heavily on the artwork throughout this and previous books to get the characters and environment just right. I don't think I took any reference photos for the main figures, but I probably posed in front of the mirror the get the gestures right.

The fortress plan was a quick sketch done in Photoshop, which was then warped into perspective. This is the fastest way to achieve an accurate floor plan, from which you can build an entire scene.

Couldn't fit all the inspirational art! Every page by a different artist!

DAREDEVIL SEASON 3. 2018. Gouache and acrylic on bristol board, 11 × 17″.

I won't be at NYCC this year, but Marvel and Netflix will be giving out this promotional poster for the 3rd season of Daredevil, which debuts October 19th. I hope to get some copies, but can't guarantee that I'll have any to sell.

That being said, you can find the original art with my representative, Splash Page Comic Art, who will be set up in Artist Alley, in rows J and K. There are a ton of great artists who are represented (and will actually be there) so it's definitely worth a visit.

BLACK PANTHER VOL. 7 #4. 2018.
Gouache and acrylic on bristol board, 11 × 17″.

Black Panther #4 is out today, from Ta-Nehisi Coates and Daniel Acuña. Aside from the character sketches and design work, Daniel provided me with a layout sketch for the cover. This allowed me to take on a monthly painted cover gig, something I usually shy away from. This series has been a ton of fun, both to read and be a part of. I hope you'll pick it up!
