25th Anniversary
(1996 - 2021)

Yes... 25 years ago I created "Reptile" and here is the very first coloured comic panel in which he appeared:

reptile-universum.de/reptile_b…

After all this time it was only fitting to remake this scene. How would this comic page look if I did it TODAY? Well, here you have it!
Yeah, Reptile is much younger and it's weird to see him this way... but it's cool anyway!
I know the lighting is not realistic but I wanted some kind of "80s-fantasy-cover-art" feeling.
Enjoy!
^^

Drawing media:
Pencils, ink, brush, COPICS, markers, coloured pencils, acrylics (no digital media except adding some contrast)

Working time:
4 days (about 20 hours)

Character and artwork (c) Patrick Reichel aka 2021

***SPECIAL SURPRISE***

Here you can watch a little video that shows the drawing process of this artwork!
