Thanks! I did a doodle that inspired me. As I get caught up I plan to serialize new ones on my website, eventually. :P

That's awesome! I was actually reading the strip a second time when it suddenly hit me where the joke was coming from (yes - I'm sometimes that slow... ). That is hilarious! [No. I really do get it...]

You have some very great, and diverse, talent texaspoet! That vampire girl looks like it could have been in the Vampire the Masquerade 1st edition. The girl with the dragon could have been in CJ Carella's WitchCraft rpg. Excellent Ying-Yang piranahs for the album cover.

Also, that gladiator is fantastic! Very rich colours and excellent shading. Great texture effect for the top of the helmet, shoulder plate and chest ornament.

Wow! Thanks for the compliments, MrJupiter! I do a lot of different stuff. I'm about to get started doing sculptures again (usually fantasy) and I'll post some when I do. I did metal fabrication as a minor in school and so I like putting together jewelry and found metal sculptures, and actually the only professional art show wins I've had was at ChattaCon in Chattanooga several years ago, for polymer clay sculptures of Cthonic style monsters I did :P Picked up a win in the professional sculpture category.

Great! We'd love to see them (for me, I'd especially like to see some pictures of your Cthonic beasties).

I don't have any of the cthonic beasties at the moment, but I also just moved and am resetting my studio. They were mostly made of polymer clays, fimo and sculpey. Pretty cute, but I usually sell them as fast as I can make them.

Anyhoo, here are some superhero illustrations that I and Mike Ceranko did.

Here is the first one that I painted. This is with Photoshop.

I do the painting, when we colorize.

on some of them you can see the author requested changes between the line art and the colored version.
