Old Stuff: X-MEN Characters (1)

 

                        

          

             Here you can see all these unpublished designs for the X-Men characters for another project with Marvel Comics that was never done. The futuristic high-tech style designs are from 2005 and were for Uncanny X-Men. My colourist Max was also proposed with me. In the next post you will see the color tests that came to be done.

           Here you can see my versions of Beast (above) - Rogue (two drawings) - Nightcrawler - Polaris - Iceman - Emma Frost - Colossus - Bishop - Cable - Kitty Pride - Psylocke
