Early Look: Luna 2/12

Hello, Legionnaires!  Luna's second phase is ready for the full moon!  The image will be posted later today for the Crusaders along with the usual variants and part one for continuity, but for you here's the original sketch along with the final piece AND, as a little bonus teaser, the gesture drawing for March's installment!  I've sketched out poses like this for all 12 stages.  For the rest of this month I'll try to flesh out the anatomy on all of these (the 12th stage is...

K9 Crusader: Ready For Work

Couldn't let the month go by without an appearance by the Felon Fightin' Furball!  I've got a few different lighting schemes for this one.  Which one is your favorite?  (I may do a poll.)

Valentine's Day Pinup 2022: Julie Kim

Valentine's Pinup 2022: Julie Kim

Always wanted to try this!  

Anyway, this is one I've had in sketch form on my device since November that was on my "Unfinished Business" list.  As the colors got added, I thought she'd make for a good Valentine's pinup.  Julie was the easy winner in last year's favorite character poll, so this seems like a good Valentine's project.  I must say with her fondness for red outfits, Julie really lends herself to this!

The completed pic is below.  A full res ve...

Sketch: Jeepers It's The She-Hulk

For the Legionnaires--the original sketch for today's Daphne piece.

No promises, and just between you and me--the file name for this on my iPad is "DaphneHulkIV." ;)

Jeepers! It's the She-Hulk!

Here's the second of my three Mid Shulkout pinups I've had in the works since last year.   After posting a regular pinup of Daphne around Halloween time last year, someone asked about a Daphne hukout.  I've always associated Daph with lycanthropy (thank you, 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo) but the next thing I knew I was drawing this up.  Enjoy!

Bonus: Enter She-Hulk Comic (BDB Version)

Hi guys!  Just finished this quick comic featuring a TF from the classic 1982 episode "Enter: She-Hulk."  I've posted it both as a page and a comic strip.  Which do you prefer?

Early access for all of you, and a higher resolution than the one that will be (eventually) posted publicly a month or more down the road.  Enjoy!

Bonus! Enter She-Hulk

Hello Crusaders!  I'm experimenting with format for smaller TFs and I wanted to try a 4 panel comic.  The relatively quick 2nd TF from the classic Episode "Enter She-Hulk" seemed to be a good fit.  I've got them here in both page and strip formats along with a black and white version.  As a bonus for the Crusaders, we're leading off with the panels individually at the original size they were drawn in before being assembled--about twice the size of the collected versions.

Bonus: Enter She-Hulk (LL Version)

here's something I started back in December and finally polished off this weekend.  I'm looking at some smaller format TF's to add some variety, and I wanted to do a quick one as a four panel strip, and this scene from the classic 1982 Episode Enter: She-Hulk came to mind!  This is actually the first time I've done a fully completed TF featuring the 1982 Jenny, even though her unique blonde hair has influence many of my other She-Hulk works.

Included is the seuqence in both co...

Gamma Tube--Alternate Version

Hello, Legionnaires.  As a bonus for you, here's the alternate version of the new Gamma Tube Pinup with some of the mood lighting toned down so you can see the subject better, as well as the other versions for comparison, and the original sketch.

Some background:  As you may have read in the main post, this ties into a character design I posted last year named Dr. Rachel Greene.  ...

Gamma Tube (B&W)

January's been slow so now that I've got some more time, I had to get one more TF piece in before the end of the month!  Here's the black and white version for the Brigadiers!   Enjoy!

Pin-Up: Gamma Tube

It's been a slow month, as January often is, creating wise, but now that I've gotten my weekends back I wanted to get one more TF piece in before the end of the month.  This is one of the sketches I've had sitting incomplete on my iPad for some time.  You may remember this character design from last year, Dr. Rachel Greene.  I've kind of moved on from the character, but not before I ske...

BTS: Luna--Final Adjustments

And here's some BTS for the Lunateer Legion!  This was delayed even longer than I originally thought.  I had the "finished" picture uploaded and the caption written Friday, but something about the eyes bugged me and I couldn't go forward with posting it until I did something about it, which I was finally able to this morning.  The first image above is the original, with the final version for comparison.  What do you think?  Which do you like better?

Full Moon PinUp: Luna (Brigade Version) (Phase One)

So my car starting having serious trouble Wednesday night, which is not great news.  What is great news is that being stuck at the garage with it Thursday morning gave me a break from my crazy work schedule and allowed me to finish this.  Following the unfinished business theme of this year, I'm revisiting this project, which was intended to be a 12 stage werewolf transformation scene that never got past inks for stage 2.  I'm not thrilled at already getting a late start, but I...

Fan Art Freebie Friday: Zelda

I've been trying to get to the last couple of requests for Fan Art Freebie sketches.  Here's Zelda as she appeared in the American animated series from the 1990's as suggested by Spotts1701.

Speaking of unfinished business, I still have a couple of Fan Art Freebie requests to finish!  This is Zelda from the 1990's American cartoon, as requested by Spotts1701.

Ericka Samuels--new 'do.

Ugh.  I knew the back half of this month was going to be bad, but I had no idea how much.  6 am to 9 pm some days, with just enough time for commuting and sleeping in between.  Plus Saturday hours--and I had been counting on the weekends for playing catch up.

That said, I did manage to pull this together over the weekend.  I follow a couple of vintage/retro fashion accounts on Instagram and one focuses on the 70's--the very era in which Ericka Samuels, aka the Savage...

Weekend PinUp and Updates for the next few weeks

Hi gang--I just wanted to touch base on where we're going these next couple of weeks.

As you can imagine,  I am thrilled to have completed the two biggest project of my entire art career. and I thank all of you who hung in there over the last 2+ years while I slogged through them.  I've been seeing some new faces popping up both on the patron list and in the comments, and to you also I say welcome and thank you!

Obviously I'm stoked to have my slate clean and to get roll...

Throwback Thursday on a Friday: Jen Walters—JennyBomb

Part of my “unfinished business” for 2022–one of my earliest sequences posted on the web—JennyBomb! Although it was later colored and lettered by another artist named Eegore, I still consider it unfinished as even then many of the pages they were working with were unfinished sketches. Also, he took the colors in a different direction than what I had envisioned. So on Thursdays as I am able I will be working to finish this old sequence, which even in its unfinished state was one of m...

WIP Wednesday: Setting the Stage

So here’s a look at what I’ve been working on today. As part of this year’s “unfinished business” theme I’m revisiting a project I started over a decade ago but never followed through on. Does the background look familiar to any long time followed? Scroll down for more if you don’t mind spoilers!

Julie Takes Wing--Legionnaire Version Plus Teaser

Hello, Legionnaires,

As a bonus, here's Julie takes wing with color and textless versions of the covers, plus an extended preview of the next sequence, CroMagna's Revenge!  CroMagna's Revenge was actually the next sequence I had planned to so after Sandy's Holiday, but it got pushed to the back burner when Savage A2Z and Julie Takes Wing came along.  As you may be able to tell from these sketches, it's going to cross a long overdue item off my TF artist's bucket list!

Julie Takes Wing: Canine Crusaders Version

HI Crusader!  

Here's a little bonus version of Julie Takes Wing.  You'll see the covers in color and without text, and a quick teaser of what's next!  Be sure to let me know if you have a favorite page or panel, and thanks again for your support!

Presenting: Julie Takes Wing!

Here it is, at last!  The Brigadiers have seen the teasers, and the  Crusaders and Legionnaires have seen the sequence itself, but now, for everyone, here's the entire complete sequence... the longest I have ever done... Julie takes Wing!  Be sure to let me know what your favorite page or panel is--I like to know what works!

When I started this I never for an instant imagined it would be at this scale.  Remember that sketched sequence I did a while back with the DCAU...

Run Daphne Run

Guys, help me.  Sometime last October  I fell down the Scooby Doo hole and still haven't clawed my way out.  Partly from working on the Velma werewolf sequence for Halloween, and partly from getting access to HBO Max, which has a vast library of Scooby Doo material, including all the original series, most of the direct to DVD movies of the last 15 years, and some of the most recent series, including Be Cool Scooby Doo, which, once you get used to the "modern" animation style, i...

Julie Takes Wing Page 22+ Complete Sequence

Here it is folks... all 22 pages of the Julie Takes Wing Sequence.  Will be adding a few extras for the official unveiling, but I wanted to get this to you for New Year's.  Hope this gets your 2022 off to a decent start!

Oh, and as I mentioned to the Legionnaires when I posted the full size page to them earlier today, that teaser in the last panel is just for fun... I do not plan on making a direct sequel to this.  However given Julie's popularity I expect we'll be seeing...
