Inked with calligraphy pen on copier paper. Drawn in 1993.
We learn to use the calligraphy pen for art lessons in secondary one and I thought I might be cool to try drawing with it. This artwork is the outcome.
Executioner’s character design was loosely plagarised from Marvel’s Dark Hawk. I created him as a [...]

One of those big-muscled characters who moves slowly, but is huge on raw brawn. The name, Rampage, is apt for a giant ape like this.

Again, this follows the same drawing style as Crimson Phantom. Not much thought went into creating this character. The superhero name is lame and so is the lame razor costume. Not too sure what he can do other than running around and cutting people with razor [...]

The name rhythms doesn’t it? I was quite proud of it myself when I thought of the name. This “original character” was modified from Marvel’s Doom 2099.
I like the effect of mixing colour pencil with minimal ink strokes and will continue to do a few more [...]

Four characters I created as the ultimate super villains in the A-team universe. Collectively know as the 四大魔王 (literally translated as “Four Demon Kings”), each of them controls an aspect of Mother Earth.
Withcraft is the queen of sorcery; Slog rules the soil and [...]

Josh is one of my favourite original character in the A-Team universe. He was conceptualised when muscle dudes like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone still ruled the movie box office with their bulging biceps and penchants for heavy machinery coupled with giant weapons.

Drawn in 1992. Ink and colour pencil on copier paper.
Inspired by Marvel’s Cable and the New Mutants, I created the Goddamn Force – a ragtag super hero mercenary force who believes the means always justify the ends, even if they have to play dirty.
