Everyone remembers the international sensation of Ben Grimm’s appearance on the television hit program, Let’s Make a Match! We know we’d match with The Thing - would you?
A peek at family dinner with the Fantastic Four!
Mid-century modern style can be found throughout the Baxter Building, home to the Fantastic Four.
“We make a point to do family dinner every week. Sunday at 7, on the dot. No matter what. We’re all here.” - Dr. Reed Richards
Family was the first thing that came to mind upon touring The Baxter Building, home to worldwide heroes, The Fantastic Four. By placing the kitchen, dining area, and living spaces within a single, flowing area, the architecture naturally supports interaction, fostering intimacy and routine family moments amidst their extraordinary lives.
“Forget whatever Suzie told you, the only thing that matters is the kitchen!” Ben Grimm AKA The Thing interjected at the end of our tour. And when we saw the beautifully designed kitchen, with sleek curved details and vibrant pops of orange and red, we understood exactly why he made that claim.

Now a collectors item, these swell stylings featuring our favorite foursome could be seen adorning the attire of audience members at The Ted Gilbert Show special event honoring the Fantastic Four!
Our heroes in the headlines! Look back at some of the Fantastic Four’s defining news moments from early in their super careers.
Galactus Approaches! Early concept development on how Galactus arrives on Earth 828. Working closely with @ryan_meinerding_art we thought that there is an opportunity here for a striking visual using Galactus' iconic silhouette set against the planet.
Hope you have been checking out @ryan_meinerding_art amazing design work on everything #fantasticfour
Our team is starting to post more art from the film, coming soon in a massive collection in the Art of Fantastic Four: First Steps!

Galactus! One of Jack Kirby’s most incredible designs—-it was one of the biggest honors of my career to work on this character for Fantastic Four: First Steps. This is another image from the Variety article by @jazzt21 about bringing Jack Kirby’s work to life on the big screen.
Galactus in New York! So much fun to work on this character in preproduction!
Galactus concept art! We were trying to keep the big shapes as true to the Kirby design as possible, then add detail that would read close up like a starship to help push the scale. The Costumes and VFX team did such an amazing job bringing him to life! Ralph is incredible! This image is from the upcoming ‘Art of Fantastic Four: First Steps,’ available for preorder now! And go see Galactus in IMAX!
The Fantastic Four meet Galactus, with close ups. So many amazing people worked to bring these moments to life. I contributed a few keyframes like this to help set the stage and scale. @kasfarahani nailed the look of everything with his team, and the VFX team working with Ralph’s amazing performance in the suit that costumes created added up to something really special. This image is from the Art of Fantastic Four!
The Thing, shirtless! He was a blast to work on—we really tried to get those Kirby shaped rocks that would create shadows similar to how the character was inked in those older comics. Everyone who worked on Ben did an amazing job of bringing him to life in the movie! Ebon’s performance is so heartfelt! Thank you to Matt Shakman and Kevin Feige for having me work on this guy!!
H.E.R.B.I.E.! This is the main design image for him. @adamwross did Herbie logo at the bottom of the image. So many people worked so hard to bring him to life, and everyone knocked it out of the park. Adam Ross did a wonderful job building the vis dev 3d model. Alistair Williams built the robotic on set versions, all of them amazing. The VFX teams also did an incredible job!
The Imagineering team that built him for the Disney Parks also worked some unbelievable magic—go see him in Tomorrowland at Disneyland!
Shalla-Bal!! Director Matt Shakman really wanted to focus on capturing a tarnished mirror look to her surface detail, helping to communicate how long she has served Galactus. This is an image from the Art of Fantastic Four: First Steps.
Fantastic Four tech suits! This is the main design image I did to figure out what the characters would look like as a team. Alexandra Byrne and her team did such an incredible job creating these suits, they are beautifully made and look as amazing up close as they do from a distance. Thank you to everyone involved in building them. This is from The Art of Fantastic Four: First Steps.
Fantastic Four together! This was a keyframe I did this early in the process, trying to get a tone of the movie from setting the characters against a retro future city. I didn’t have the suit designs approved when I first did the keyframe, those were adjusted later. This is from The Art of Fantastic Four: First Steps.
Dr. Richards’ laboratory is filled with inventions of the future, alongside symbols of the past. Spotted in one corner, the suits from their previous space launch. Look closely, and you can see the effects of the cosmic rays in the tattered remains and cracked helmet of Ben’s suit as his body expanded, and the charred remnants of Johnny’s as he first burst into flames.
My fellow board artists on Fantastic Four: First Steps have started posting some of their storyboards, so I'm gonna jump on the bandwagon. This beat appears in the trailers so it's pretty safe anyway. The Thing to the rescue!!

I'm 100% sure this little frame didn't make the final cut of Fantastic Four, but that's fine. Sometimes I just have to throw a little homage into my storyboards. In this case a little nod to Marvels photographer Phil Sheldon and superstar artist @thealexrossart.
This is one of two Ross homages I snuck in. You'll have to wait for the other one though.

Just a few frames from the deleted Red Ghost ape fight I drew for #fantasticfourfirststeps
I really wish you all could see this scene in its entirety, but alas, it's not meant to be!
#mcu #marvelstudios
As promised, here's the second @thealexrossart homage I snuck into my boards for Fantastic Four: First Steps. This time, from the (sadly) deleted Ape Fight I did for Act One. Enjoy!
#fantasticfourfirststeps #mcu #marvelstudios
Some unused frames from Fantastic Four: First Steps. I only worked on it for a few months- developing scenes with Mole Man and Subterrania- which were all scrapped in a later draft of the script. Thankful that they still credited me! #fantastic4 #fantasticfourfirststeps #storyboards #moleman #subterrania
Fantastic!.
I got a few approved images I created for Fantastic Four!
I had the chance to contribute to the new Fantastic Four movie — huge thanks to @kasfarahani for having me on board. It was an absolute blast to work on this project!

Early spacesuit designs for Fantastic Four: First Steps! Alexandra Byrne and her team did the final amazing designs and brought them to life. This image is from the Art of Fantastic Four: First Steps.
Early FF suit designs! This was one of the first images where we were trying to get a retro sci fi movie feel in the suits. I also tried to get some Kirby shapes into the tech in the background, directly based on page he drew where the Thing was lifting a heavy piece of tech in Reed’s lab. This image is from the Art of Fantastic Four: First Steps!
I was incredibly lucky to help bringing a lot of the interiors of Galactus’ Worldship to life, under the supervision of the great @kasfarahani !
Among the environments I worked on, the throne room was one of the most important, as it serves for the reveal of Galactus. This few keyframes were done especially to showcase his scale in relation to the Fantastic Four.
Thanks to @ryan_meinerding_art for his great Galactus design!
#MCU: Ralph Ineson (Galactus) nos sets de 'QUARTETO FANTÁSTICO PRIMEIROS PASSOS'.
Ralph Ineson (Galactus) on the sets of 'THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS'.
Here is another keyframe I did for @marvelstudios Fantastic Four: First Steps. I wanted to do a fun scene of the friendly back and forth interactions Ben and Johnny Storm would have. moreover, I wanted to show how in this world there would be merch of them in things like cereal boxes. I had some fun doing the toy and the cereal boxes and the detail and design that @ryan_meinerding_art put on The Thing is crazy good! Enjoy!
This image as many more can be seen in the Art of Fantastic Four: First Steps.
Here is another keyframe I did for @marvelstudios Fantastic Four: First Steps. This was early on when I was tasked to do scenes of what I imagine our heroes would do to show their personalities and their life. I wanted to show what frankly our MCU celebrities dis in the real world and visit sick kids in hospitals to give them a special day. I had a fun time painting this piece. Enjoy!
This piece and many more can be scene in The Art of Fantastic Four: First Steps
I sorta worked on Fantastic Four... The lines on these taper a bit too finely for the 60s look. They are more bold in the movie. The difficulty was striping enough lines away while still retaining the likenesses. On the 2nd slide I drew over Ryan’s 3D model of the Thing to bridge the gap between his movie look and the 60s cartoon. He ended up looking closer to the 60s cartoon in the final movie. ..ALSO Marvel’s Zombies comes out this month! It’s my favorite What If..? season. I really hope everyone likes it!
