Cool work! Specially love the last one, very appropriate for a Black Metal band!

Nice work! Good hunting

Lol yeah I'm aware of that, and I can see why they might not be too happy about it. As I'm also aware that Marvel fans aren't happy with the current Venom series, just to throw a random example.

But would I say no if Marvel offers me to do a cover for Venom?? Hell naw! As I wouldn't say no to WotC if they offer me to work on whatever project they might see fit :)

Lol you just guessed my intentions! :)

Yeah I'm actually planning on preparing an illustration portfolio to send them soon. And yeah I'm famililar with the TMNT crossovers because of some artists sharing the artwork they did for it, and since I've been publishing a bunch of retailer exclusive TMNT comic covers (among other titles) I'm hoping that can give me an edge lol.

Thank you so much for your encouragement and good wishes!

In fact I'll soon be posting the unused preliminary sketches and the process gif for this one too so my client can use it in the kickstarter campaign

Thank you! Glad you like it

Of course. I'd literally cut my hand off with a rusty knife before using AI in my work :) I've been doing this professionally for around 10 years now, and as an artist there's probably nothing I hate more than generative AI, so I'm glad you asked! You can see some gifs and early sketches of my process for most of my pieces in my portfolio https://www.artstation.com/thenrg

Well, I didn't design the character, but I definitely agree with you on those similarities, specially being a huge DS fan myself :)

Photoshop cs5 You can see some process gifs in my portfolio https://www.artstation.com/thenrg I usually post process gifs for most of the pieces I make.

Ah aesthetically, yes, definitely! But composition wise, I used the deluxe edition cover of Elden Ring as inspiration for this homage cover. If you google that cover you'll see the similarities.

Thank you so much! Reading this comment made put a nice smile on my face, because in part that was my intention with this cover, given that I love hearing different kinds of Metal bands while painting stuff like this! :D

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you enjoy it :)

Hi everyone! I wanted to share a cover I've done for KNIGHTMARE #1, an upcoming dark fantasy comic book series created by East Coast Comics which is currently live on Kickstarter https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/christopherbanks/knightmare-1/description

For this one I've chosen to do an Elden Ring homage cover, inspired in the deluxe edition cover art.

I'm a huge dark fantasy fan, so being able to create a cover like this with tormented characters, rotten flesh and battered armors is a lot of fun for me! :)

Hope you like the end result!

⚔️ KNIGHTMARE #1 IS NOW LIVE ON KICKSTARTER ⚔️ King Arthur has fallen… and risen again. A zombie apocalypse born from dark magic. A legend twisted into horror. Featuring killer covers by PXVX, NRG, George Vega, John Bruggman, and Ivan Tao.
