I absolutely loved the galactic characters in the Marvel roster as a kid, particularly Silver Surfer. Characters like Galactus and Eternity always struck a chord with me so getting to draw this one was a lot of fun. In particular, I got a lot of positive feedback about this one which was really encouraging.

Art wise the character does all the work and really the only thought I had to keep in mind was striking a good balance of universal elements and negative space.

From a colour perspective, this one did all the work for me. All I had to do was ensure I wasn’t clashing elements together, that each individual piece was readable, and that the colours all popped. I include some straight forward shading for depth, and not much else was necessary. Sometimes with a piece with a lot of elements, less is more when it comes to colour.

Here they are, the final batch! I actually finished these early but got occupied with work and with colouring each and every one of these entries. That's right, I have 31 new colour illustrations to post!

I'm proud of having accomplished that, this is the first monthly drawing challenge I not only finished during the month, but early!
