Back in 3rd year of uni, I was working on a Haliya/Bakunawa/Sidapa/Bulan comic and never finished it. I'd love to revisit it again someday... but gotta tweak that script and designs
(these are mainly the only pages that made it)

✨ Commissioned Work ✨

Character design gig. A pre-colonial Visayan warrior-shaman and his spirit guardian. This is one of the versions I did for a character in a story she's writing. I resonated a lot with this version 😊

"Mariang Sinukuan"

May isang gabing hindi ako mapakali, nagdasal ako kay Sinukuan at humingi ako ng gabay kung paano ko sya ipapakilala. Nagsimula akong gumuhit at unti-unti syang nagpakita sa akin. Tunay kang mahiwaga, Sinukuan.

"Ang Tagasundo"

Known as "Maria Cacao", her original name is lost & unrecorded, the Spaniards named her. Like Makiling and Sinukuan, her mythology was already developed before the arrival of the Spaniards. She guards Mt. Lantoy in Argao, Cebu.

Quick scene draft for my forest Engkantos. I thought of them as Filipino version of Elves. Wise, ancient, and cunning.

(Character design not final, for blocking only ✌🏼)

"Trono ng Sinaunang Reyna”
[ Throne of an Ancient Queen ]

A follow up to my concept of a pre-colonial ... What if they were an ancient Filipino tribe who embraced their “gifts” & fought back?

A pre-colonial druidess, the queen of the Manananggal Tribe of the Philippines. Not cursed but blessed with great power and agility... Alternate concept for Manananggal.
