Over at C2F, they had a challenge to do a manip in one hour. You had to include time for base model searching and any other prep work in your one hour time limit. For the full rules of this challenge you can find it here ( http://www.comics2film.com/UBB/Forum7/HTML/003168.html ). I thought that it was an interesting Idea so I took part. Normally, I work pretty fast but this one really had me rushed. I did this on thurdays evening just after diner. Here is a breakdown of how I spent my time.
6:20 started
6:21 had base picture & opened it in photoshop
6:35 Finished making skirt from scratch using dodge and burn on a solid colour.
6:38 Finished cleaning mess on hands and arms from skirt I made.
6:45 finished making blue shirt
6:50 finished internet search for "s" symbol
6:55 cut and pasted "s" symbol onto shirt
7:00 added in some details, drop shadows and a couple of wrinkle.
7:15 finished cape
7:17 clean up from cape.
7:18 added my "W" logo
7:19 croped picture and re-sized
7:20 saved optimized for web
I was really surprised on what I could do in a single hour. It was fun. Some of you guys might want to try it, it was a good training exercise if nothing else. |

Okay, obscure character time, but I couldn't resist when I saw the base pic as an advert for Game Boy Advanced. Vincente has always been a favorite of mine that was criminally underused. He was in the 4 issues of the Age of Apocalypse based Generation Next, then vanished from the radar. This version has the young Jeremy Irons cast in the role. Dunno why but he seemed to suit.
A real quicky this one, taking an hour or so rather than a month or so that it seems to have taken me recently. ;) |

certainly not the best of the bunch but i love the expression on her face. this took some time to do, mainly just figuring out how open the suit should be cos i wanted her to look like she was almost bursting out. the zipper wasn't as difficult as i thought it would be and i think it turned out okay.
at some point i should redo the earlier ones as they already look quite primitive by comparison.
anyway i hope you like it, i have more on the way. |

I found a sketch of superman in my images folder, i'm not sure who it was by, possibly Khary Randolph. Anyway I decided to color it in PSP using vectors. Picked out the best lines from the sketch and used bezier curves to 'ink' the drawing. I didn't like the angle of the left hand (looking at the picture) hand or foot and so drew my own. Then picked my fill colors and line colors. The shadows are done with vectors also and set to multiply at 25%.
The pink sky background I found on google. I added the city skyline at the bottom using filled shapes to create the buildings and set it to soft-light. The superman logo at the back is my own vector one.
I like how it turned out, a sort of retro animation feel. |

alot of the SP2 pics have this sort of twilight look to them and i thought it would look good in a teaser for SP3 assuming they use the much cooler venom suit. |

upon returning to his alleyway home, after narrowly escaping certain death in heaven...Al uses a tiny bit of his power to make a physical image of his former hunter turned ally turned lover whom although an angel herself...helped him escape her sisters...while lost in thoughts of her, he does not feel the violators powers observing him...gleefully waiting on the last drop of power to leave simmons and therefore finishing him...
(man, i put WWAAYY to much thought into that...LOL, but everyone enjoy! and please let me know what ya'll think....) |

lately on how to sharpen up my work. I hope it's
working. What do you guys think? I really appreciate all the suggestions and comments you guys give me! (Even if they're not always complimentary- Be tough- the Mage can take it !) |

1. Source: a very, very dubious one if you know what I mean and I have no idea who the model is.
2. Describing the image: Supergirl at the JL headquarters (like in "Kingdom Come"). The table and structure were made with Green Lantern power. So why the chair is gray? Errr... Forgot to paint it with the correct color. Supergirl DOES NOT appear in "Kingdom Come" except in a small square, Android! Answer: I know, I know.

this is a quick manip i did of collosus using a method i came up with. it is nothing more than multiple dodging and burning of an image and coloring via color balance to create the effect. i hardened the face with some lines and set the layermode to overlay. if you would like to see how the process plays out you can look at my tutorial at

| This is a repost. This image has a funny story. My buddies and I were (are) diehard fans of The Batman Animated series. A while back??????? 1999 or so??????? my buddy admitted that he had a sexual crush on Harley so I decided that he needed a more three dimensional Harley to worship. So, I looked thru the archive of girls and found this pose fired up Photoshop[ and BAM??????? a Harley Quinn that could torture me any day. |

This is a repost.
Again, this image lacked something when I considered it finished. So I figured maybe a little ???????Braveheart??????? face paint. Since the Cheetah is my favorite large cat, I decided to give her the stripes around and under a cheetah????????s eyes. Your call??????? I made them so I like them both. But I lean towards the Paint. |

| Shania will kick your a$$. - no paint

This is a repost.
Again, a manipulation stemmed from a lust for the hottest (OK maybe not THE hottest) Canadian around??????? and she can sing too! I wanted to experiment with a little bit more old school metal and leather. I needed the metal to look as if it had been in battle before, or at least worn. And the leather needed stains??????? so I practiced on these two items on this image. |

This is a Repost.
Again, an early manip to experiment with the power of imagination and Photoshop. Nothing behind this except that I thought the girl was hot and needed clothes. Oh what was wrong with me? HAHA

I saw this base image of an underwear model and I thought he might make a good john stewart GL. And then I had the idea that for some reason he has ended up with two power rings (perhaps Kyle Rayner) was incapacitated) Anyways that's what I thought. This is another of me trying to keep my hand in until I get really inspired.
I should have waited before uploading this.. or I would have noticed I hadn't added my siggie thing... my bad!
Heh but i do get to add some taglines like they have on movie posters.. taken from comments on the previous submission ;) please feel free to vote again ;)

| Inspired by the sassy, sexy Cat that appears in the Spider-Man 2 video game. A lot of frankensteining went into this, but I did all of the hair and fur by hand(by mouse..?), as well as some of the shinies in her outfit. I am pretty happy with it overall, though my edges are still rough, and the cat looks fake. |
