I got nostalgic and got my favorite childhood manga Rakudai Ninja Rantoroud. I’ve never gotten the chance to draw the fanart for this manga with my current style.

Practicing egg head from Burne Hogarth book

[chaunguyenj]

Try drawing Éowyn for the first time

Destined One tries to find the road….but he forgets the road is underneath his feet (Journey to the West 1986 ED song reference. Shrug)

Hope this year I will get better at anatomy and armors.

[chaunguyenj]

My brain isn’t really into un-organic objects, but I want to draw armors and swords so why not start practicing now. And like a punishment I have to start with Wukong’s armor, from the photo of 3d model of him in the game.

Another old sketch and watercolor. I still try to remember why I suddenly got into drawing sir Sun here because the game definitely hadn’t come out yet at that time.

Done inking

[chaunguyenj]

First I drew the Destined One then there was another page on the right, so why not Sun Wukong too. His golden armor set gave, and still give me a headache.

[chaunguyenj]

More old sketches. The one with the Banana Leaf Fan is from when I tried the style of the artist Dai Dunbang

[chaunguyenj]

Found some old sketches couple of years ago before the game came out. Back when I still practiced how to draw monkeys without too much human/monkey facial features

[chaunguyenj]

More expressions from Sun Wukong

[chaunguyenj]

I have no idea where Father of Stones used to stay in Yellow Wind Ridge. Guessed the place had had enough fauna and flora for humans to live.

[chaunguyenj]

Sketch study for upcoming short comics (hopefully). In the novel and tv series, SWK expressed his emotions quite alots, including crying and sulking, not just angry alone.

[chaunguyenj]

Small satisfaction of Mad Tiger. His story was messed up, but I think he was somewhat happy being the kid’s hero.

[chaunguyenj]

The Destined One takes a break, enjoying some peaches. I want to try a full page drawing next time.

When you face Wukong, the actual Wukong you know for 30 years, and remember how unhinged he can be.
