Shang-Chi Official Design

Sean Chi? No it’s SHANG-CHI! This is the approved concept art design I did many many months ago during preproduction on the film. What an honor it was to come up with this design for our amazing director in Destin Daniel Cretton. It was a long process of exploration like every character we design for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And every new character introduced in the MCU brings a new dimension- from Tony Stark/Iron Man way back in 2008 to Xu Shang-Chi in 2021. 25 films & 3 Disney+ series so far! What a deep universe Marvel Studios has created. Simply amazing! I can’t WAIT to see where he pops up next!

Oh, and did I mention how much fun it was to paint & design for the amazing Simu Liu?? Pure joy! He’s a real life superhero! He was born for this role!
