Nightcrawler Fan Art: From Pencil on Paper to Procreate Colour

Nightcrawler is one of my favourite X‑Men to draw. This post shares my journey with a large A2 pencil sketch, having it displayed in a popular Athens comic book store, and later colouring it digitally with Procreate.

One of my favourite superheroes is Nightcrawler. He’s upbeat, cheerful, charming, and a loyal friend. His appearance is unique, so I really enjoy drawing him.

This is my fan art of Nightcrawler. I drew it with an HB pencil on A2‑sized paper. When I asked a local comic book store if they could hang it on their wall, they gladly did — for a while. I was over the moon showcasing my art in one of the most popular comic book stores in Athens.

Years later, I scanned the drawing and then coloured it with Procreate.

I enjoy to draw In the garden

Who is your favourite X‑Man? I have several favourites myself — but Nightcrawler will always be near the top.

 Doctor Strange Fan Art – A 60s Style Tribute

A fan art tribute to Doctor Strange, inspired by his classic 1960s look. Pencil sketch, ink, and Procreate colours. Plus a quick summary of why Stephen Strange is one of my favourite Marvel characters.

I’m a big fan of Doctor Strange’s comic books.

Let me give you a quick summary of who he is.

Doctor Strange’s real name is Stephen Vincent Strange. He was a successful surgeon — but a car crash damaged his hands and ended his career as a medical doctor. He later became the Sorcerer Supreme after seeking a way to heal his hands.

Although he never managed to heal his hands, he is one of the strongest magicians in comics and one of my favourite Marvel characters.

Doctor Strange Fan Art

So I did a Doctor Strange fan art, following the style of how he looked in the 1960s.

It’s a pencil sketch, inked on paper and then scanned and coloured with digital tools in Procreate.

I referenced legendary Steve Ditko’s art of who I am a big fan off.

Which character should I draw next? The one who gets the most mentions wins!

Northstar

Currently I’m focusing on doing a lot of fan art so I can learn and improve my drawing skills with Procreate, it’s an amazing drawing app.

One of the fan art that I’m working on is Alpha Flights Northstar.

I really liked Northstar in X-Factor but annoyed me immensely when I first read his stories in the early Alpha Flight issues, a bit arrogant.
