Description This portrait of Gambit was done for the Superhero Masterpiece Project that's been organized by .

Alphonse Mucha is one of my favorite artists, and Gambit is probably my favorite superhero, so I decided to make my picture of Gambit in the art nouveau style and to have it mimic Mucha's Job Cigarettes poster. I looked through tons of Mucha's work before I finally decided on using that poster as the basis for my entry to the Masterpiece project. It was a lot of fun to make this!

I drew and painted all of this in Photoshop with my tablet. Completed in November of 2006.

Wallpaper sized versions:
- 1024x768 (can be sized down for 800x600)
- 1280x1024


I've done some other Gambit pictures that can be seen right here:
- Gambit
- Thief

Mucha is a favorite of mine too. You can definitely see his influences along with your's as well. And I have a soft spot for the X-Men. ^_^

If I had to pick one superhero, it would be by far Gambit. The attitude. The power. The eyes. Hell, even is hair is awesome.

Besides, attacking people with playing cards is just freaking awesome.

You know, I was just digging through pages and pages of Mucha-related art on dA this morning. This piece came up in the search results on something like page 32 zillion. My jaw hit my desk as I said, "Gambit. Mucha. OMGGGGG."

I clicked, and laughed hysterically when I realized it was you. OF COURSE IT'S JACKIE OCEAN IT'S WHY YOU LOVED IT AT FIRST SIGHT.

*coff* So, yeah, I love this piece and I want to have many of its babies. Gambit. Mucha.

That's probably the best looking Remy I've seen in a while. It sure as hell beats the "blue skinned" horseman version. Very nice work.

Blueberrymaiden [2008-08-10 02:27:47 +0000 UTC]

Wow your Gambit is amazing here. Never noticed the smoke was echoing hair from another picture, that's cool. I just imagined Kurt Russell as Gambit out of nowhere... weird... he's definitely got the attitude, but maybe someone newer would be better I'll have to look at this Sawyer guy...

Gambit really does know how to make pink look right >< hehe.
