New illustration of my boy #Sabretooth roughhousing with #Wolverine.

Still working on figuring out the best way to give it the comic book look but there’s progress, especially in form/positioning etc. Next one should be better.

Finished my Beast illustration.

I'm very happy with my new illustration. I wanted to draw two characters interacting and used a lot of references and tutorials to get the look I wanted. It's not quite there yet but I did feel a bit of a level up.

Hope you dig it.

Broke the 400lb squat today. It’s so rare that I feel proud of myself and it turns out it’s because of heavy cicles.

Still trying to find my technique. This time, it's TERRAX, an awesome character I had the pleasure of giving voice in the last LEGO movie. I'm not quite there yet but I like that these are coming out a bit better than the last.

Discovered a new way to do digital paintings. Still got ways to go but I think this is the right direction. I'll keep practicing. Soy ese (though if I was an orc I'd still have a beard).

Tried another #Hulk illustration with the "comic cover" schtick, this time with a "horror movie" vibe.

A character I love (soy ese) whom I don’t draw enough. Juggernaut. This time more “animated series” rather than “comic book”.

A new illustration I did, based on the goofy trenchcoat and hat they gave Bane in "Batman & Robin". It was a joke at first but I ended up liking it so I took it all the way.

Hope you dig it!

Re-uploading because an easily fixed mistake (trunks) was driving me up the walls.

King.

I’ve been strengthening my lower back to squat more. I topped at 335 lbs today for three good reps. I know I can do more but I really don’t want to risk another injury.

I feel like I’ve added more mass to my legs this year than in the last four. My sweatpants actually feel tight.

New bench press PR: 330.

POV you just said lucha libre is fake right to my face.

Having fun with brushes and perspective. I don’t know why I hadn’t drawn King before he’s literally me literally.

KING WIP.

I don’t know why I had never drawn him before.

The original artist for Kai and Jim, @htoast.bsky.social, knocking it out of the park with a new illustration.

Hey I’m the Spanish voice for the Omega beast. I’m happy that I got to join this legendary show as a big, BIG bad!

Hulked out again thanks to Sheru George!

Ngl it’s pretty cool to visualize myself as my favorite character. Makes me want to hit the gym that much harder.

Bane.

So I made this one of his lion character enjoying himself at a metal show. It was a lot of fun to draw.

Jorge Sheru (sheru . george on IG) made this awesome illustration of me fully hulked out. It’s pretty badass.

Late night Bane #WIP.

Now it's my turn to add to the #Villainous anniversary celebration. Sadly I had to rush it, but it was a lot of fun to draw.

So I always wanted a realistic and even functional Metauro costume, but you just know Black Hat wouldn't give it away without a catch.

I'm constantly awed by the sheer scope, beauty and detail put into every aspect of the game and I can't wait for it to see the light of day in 2026. I can guarantee: it will not disappoint!

You can now by wishlisting "Duskfade" on every platform (Steam, PS5 and X-Box)!

Every aspect of working on this absolute diamond of a game alongside Ricardo Chorques, the talented lead writer, has been a dream. The story is profound and full of heart so I've made it my quest to protect Ricardo's vision and do my best to help tell this tale as well as it can be told.

I've been dying to share this news and now that the game has been made public through a beautiful gameplay trailer, I can!

I was chosen by Fireshine Games to join Weird Beluga Studio's crazy talented team as a Narrative Designer on #DUSKFADE, their newest game coming 2026!
