The end!

I am slooowly putting together some more traditional solicit Monday mocking, but in the meantime, have a further installment of ( Drawing Troll Horns On 'American Vampire' Covers: )

Sometime I am going to acquire physical copies of this series and attack it with an orange gel pen. It seems like an inevitable outcome.

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a fangirl in possession of an extra pair of canvas shoes, must be in want of something to do with them.

(I'm not sure how I keep accidentally ending up with extraneous shoes, but I suppose there are worse curses.)

( This is incredibly silly. )
 

I was not expecting solicit Monday to come so early! And, for a month with a *really gory* emergent theme to its covers, to actually be fun (otherwise)! People are not just posing boringly on every single book! I can remember why I like this game!

(  Here be May's special Karen variant covers. )

I made too many of these last time as well. Turns out, finding boring interpretations of extreme! illustrations is a pretty easy hobby.

( I wasn't sure if these were average enough, but then Photobucket crashed my browser, and oops there went my quota of caring. MLIA. )

A while ago, I volunteered myself as an unofficial art-side partner for petra and thatyourefuse's polybigbang story!

I had the vague plan of putting together a title page via digital collage, but soon became confused by the logistics of representing a fairly balanced OT4 via 2D media. So I ended up putting together something a bit different, that I hope still represents the story. :) I had a fun time, everyone, I will not lie.

(Oh, and, Petra & Carla, if either of you would like one of these, let me know and I'll mail it over.)

Story Text and Art Links On Petra's journal

There's been some confusion over the comic pages I posted this morning. For what purpose did I post them? What even are they?

Obviously, there was a communications failure on my side. I suspect, after 3 hours of word balloons, I was just *really sick* of looking at words. Everyone should just KNOW my intentions.

The pages aren't from a "real" comic: I found some unrelated art which (with a couple small tweaks) served my purposes, and re-dialogued them entirely! The pages are now a scene that should logically follow the end of the War of the Supermen miniseries, yet does not.

If you read the New Kypton/War of the Supermen story - and I don't recommend it, if only because it seems like DC got bored in the middle of several storylines and concluded with (fairly literally) "Rocks fall; everyone dies" - you were treated to a plot in which the humans blow up a populated planet out of xenophobia, for which the only consequence I noticed was a sad editorial by Lois Lane, after which she flew in Superman's arms towards a hopeful sunrise. Or maybe a sunset, it doesn't really matter. [scans or it didn't happen]

My reaction was basically, "Whaaaaaaaaat?"

So I put together a scene* in which some of the DCU's aliens call us on that shit. (I was waiting for someone more "official" to do it for me, but, well...) Because yes, we live in a vacuum, but we live in a vacuum full of other populated planets who should frown on such actions. If only out of self interest. (The DCU's aliens tend towards jackassery, with luck I got that across?)

*I don't know what to call it. Illustrated fanfic? Narrative meta? Too much screwing around with Photoshop?

I've wanted to redo this cover since reading this extremely well done Racebending Revenge story, in which Golden Age Superman is reimagined as a black man.

I originally tried to draw it myself as homage, but, well. That didn't end prettily. Photoshop still seems like cheating for such a small percentage change, but ( so it goes )
