For Doorkeeper’s 5th Anniversary in 2022, our publisher wanted to republish Doorkeeper with an updated cover. Below are some of my conceptualizations and color concepts for the new cover:

Each illustrator was assigned a chapter to illustrate that had its own setting and time period, and we were all encouraged to interpret the titular Doorkeeper in our own way. I was given the chapter set in the Philippines in the 1980's, during the Martial Law era, when free speech and dissidence were quickly silenced by the government.

Rough concept art from 2017 from when I was conceptualizing the different settings and characters that would appear in Chapter 4. They were made as a personal guide, and so I kept it pretty loose as I threw ideas at the wall.
