I was recently invited to participate in a contest for Mike’s HARDER, to come up with an illustration for a new, limited-edition drink called Tiger’s Blood. While I don’t normally go for contests, I really liked the brief and felt this was a nice opportunity to work outside my usual style. The result is an illustration that is very different from what I typically showcase in my portfolio, which was a lot of fun for me to do.

Here’s a shot of the initial drawing stage:

 

And here’s the image alongside a mock-up of the final product:

 

Really happy with how it all came out!
