Psycho, hero or villain, is looking scary.

Fabulous!

I really appreciate you having this thread and wished other rpg artists would do something similar.

Thanks for the great pictures,

Geez! The cockles of my heart are warmed! Seriously, that was some nice words there. Thank you.

A great karmic turn for me, a man named David Boddie wanted to redesign my website. He has done a fantastic job. So, check it out!

But right now, he is looking for more ideas with oomph... the ones so far have not wowed him yet. So if you have a superhero or supervillian idea that you would like to see illustrated... I suggest you get your fingers a tappin' to the link below.

Does this still stand? Or do you have your had enough concepts for his "credit"?

Another vote on the coolness of your new site! Very easy to navigate.

A question: have you thought of hiring a writer to do a villian book or sourcebooks based on your art? I know the formula normaly runs the other way (publisher/writer hires artist to design publisher/writer's concept); but with your art, I'd think you'd have no problem selling one.

(F.Y.I.: not suggesting me, there are a heap of more talented folks out there. I know you post on the Hero Forum as well; got to be some good writers there also.)

I agree with the group here in saying that your new site is looking great

I also like the new site. Very nice.

Looking back at my HERO books I am really impressed by your art. It is one of the best things about the HERO books and seriously makes me reconcider my choice of super hero RPGs. Alas the simplicity and beauty of the MnM books has me spell bound (Green Ronin shame on you for not hiring this guy already!).

I am curious...What books have you done for WoTC? I have never really seen your art in any of the 3rd edition stuff. Also who are your favorite artists in the 3rd edition books?


The idea of a RPG (MnM hopefully) book featuring your art would be really awsome. I would spend a good amount of money for this. A full color book (the MnM treatment if you will) with professional stats and backgrounds for your characters would be sweet.

How about a PDF using art that you already have finished (commisons etc. featured on your web site). This would be a better buy then most of the PDFs I have already purchased. Please consider a bookand or pdf. And my God dont make us wait on it like we do the MnM books.

All completed. The green figure with the blue shields was the final result.

However I may be tempted to do something similar again here provided I am lavished with praise. Wait until I have actually posted stuff first though.

Swordfire wrote:1) The picture done for Death Tribble has the colours fading towards the feet. Is that because she's capable of going intangible or something like that?


No Storn's idea entirely. Infinity has the A bomb symbol clearly visible so her powers are radiation based. Now if I tell you she is the only normal looking member of her family that can trace its roots to the people who were at Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945, what does that tell you ?

Power level wise she's quite high. She would oppose people like the Atomic Brain and Omega but would see nothing wrong in meting out punishment to those she felt deserved it. Like the Yakuza, corrupt politicians and corporations. She believes the guilty should be made to suffer in this life as well as the next. And she will protect innocents.

Rachel is too small. The picture of Britannia is based on a British model called Vanessa Upton. You can pics of her on the web.

There is a magazine called Front and Feb 2001 had Vanessa on the cover in a Union Jack bikini. Now as any clear headed person knows you cannot fight crime or save the day in a bikini (or in a man's case a thong). So I adapted the idea and drew a parallel with Wonder Woman.

As of June 29th, I have no character commissions. So my schedule is open in spite of the publisher workload.

I'm also very, very poor due to all kinds of financial snarls.

So, if you were thinking about commissioning some artwork, consider this a nudge. <g>
