From the Archives: Martian Hunter


Martian Manhunter redesign. This one I had been playing with for a long time, but I decided to finish it and enter it into the Project Rooftop: Heroes in Need call for entries. I was trying to keep the funky suspender things and the red/blue color scheme and yet make the suit more.. spacey...? http://www.tencentticker.com/projectrooftop/

SotM: Gorilla Grodd


New Superhero of the month entry!!! This time is Gorilla Grodd from the DC Universe. I was reading on Grodd, and he gets high intelligence, telepathic abilities, and ultra tech from aliens... Thats right aliens. Anyhoo, everytime I think of aliens and space, I think of Kirby, so I decided to run with that theme. Also, I can never tell Grodd from any other gorilla, so I thought I'd solve that by making him silver. Its been a while since I"ve sent in an entry to http://www.superheroofthemonth.com/. I hope yall dig. I had a lot of fun drawing him.

From the Archives: Harley Quinn


Superhero of the Month entry. Really liked the outcome on this one. More modern take on Harley; rich, and crazy Psychiatrist chick trying to impress her madman patient.

Daily Sketch: Ottis


This is my homie and coworker Ottis. Quick sketch while in a work meeting. Strangely enough, I find it easier to pay atention to people talking at seven in the morning if I'm doodling.

From the Archives: B.P.R.D.


The B.P.R.D. is probably one of my favorite books and teams of all time. Created by the genius of Mike Mignola, Hellboy reminds me that there is no such thing as destiny; God gives us all the power of choice. Who we are, where we are at and where we end up, are all a result of the choices we make everyday....

Red Death Rendered


Well, just as promised. The full color pic of Red Death. Gattica is the second largest kingdom of the Allied Thrones, in its heart lies the Da Castilla Castle, home to the one of the wealthiest families in The Domains. Still, few criminals dare make their stay a lenghty one; for this city is said to eat criminals alive. Some of the best of the worst have tried to come away with the famed Da Castilla riches, alas, only a few have returned, and none coherent enough to speak again. It is almost as if they had seen death itself...

The Red Death


This are the inks for the first character in a concept story I am working on. He's Batman's counterpart in a dark ages story set in what may or may not be the DC Universe. Ala Marvel's 1602; Just for fun and all.. More on the story and character bios on the next post....
And a good Year to all. My name is Omar I Landeros, I am an artist. I am starting this Blog in order to get my art out there and hopefully find my place in this world; I hope this space can be put to good use by giving me a faucet out of which ideas and work can freely flow. This being my first post, I wanted to thank God for the opportunity to live another year, and the will he's given me to come out of this art/life slump. Last but definitely not least, I want to dedicate this blog to my beautiful, loving and patient wife who has stuck with me thru all this time, and who makes me want to be a better person... I love you.
