A picture is worth a thousand words, right? Got art?

Here's one I accidentally changed the background to black, completely changing the picture (let that be a lesson, wine and computer use don't mix!). I kind of like it though, I'll have to post the pic I was hoping to actually draw when I get it done.

Ok, this is what I was aiming for (mas o menos). Which one do you guys prefer?

Your original intent reminds me of Gemini from an old Champions mod called Zodiak.

I like your "mess up" too. Looks magical. Maybe stuck halfway between two dimensions.

Yah she's kind of a mashup of Hel, a Tron suit, and a stripper ('cause I can't explain why I drew platform heels any other way). I'll have to come up with something to use the pic for.

I tried to look up this Zodiak chick but I couldn't find a pic. Glad you liked them though!

Ok, so maybe a bit excessive, but here's a third (and final!) version of her. I lost a bit of the detail, but I like how the background and color contrasts came out. Gives her a bit of a metallic sheen I think.

Weird, I have no idea why she's larger now, it's the exact same format as the other two. Oh well.

Well, here's a sneak peek at one of the villains for the upcoming first adventure for the BASH! Living Campaign! Maybe one of you folks involved with writing the adventure could shed some light on who he is...
Enjoy!

He looks great. Anybody who play-tests can get a sneak peek.

I really like this new piece Dustland. I'm eager to see the other characters you're doing for the Living campaign!

A quick break from working on the Living Megapolis illustrations and Urbwar's rather sinister dragon man (yes, he's almost done).

Introducing, Wildcard, my probability manipulator from a 60s Silver Age game I just joined. As of now his ability is similar to Domino's in that he has little active control over the power (pretty much just dodges attacks and hopes for the best), but he is beginning to develope his TK and Telepathy to the point that they are useful powers too.

And no, this is not 100% original. I used some existing line art and modified it from there. Had to get him done quickly for the game!

I really like how this one has turned out! I'm not sure if you can somehow clarify the eye on her dark side a bit more but otherwise love the dancing energy effect (and the stripper-heels). I can definately see the cool Tron influence in the picture.

This picture is a perfect fit for the BASH-style of art. It easily looks as good as the best work done by Dan Houser for ICONS. Keep up the great work Dustland!

I'd be willing to clean up the pic if someone wanted to use it for a project. It's definitely a look I'd like to revisit for an illustration in the future.

Wow, thank you sir! This has been a big learning curve for me this year but a fun one.
