In issue number three I put Powergirl up against another relatively obscure villain, Knockout.
I've went back to Charile O'Neale for the face on this one. The arrogance in her expressions is perfect for Powergirl. For Knockout I used Tiffany Taylor.

Are you old enough to drive? No? Then you do not have permission to visit this site.
2. Commenting image: Our favorite princess starting a rescue mission to save some poor soul from the domain of Hades. Well... I don't think she should do that.
3. Making of:
Step 01: the original Adriana's image had no legs and hands. It was a hard mission.
Step 02: resizing head. The head was too big (visit the above site). I HAD to "fix" it.
Step 03: the costume. This was the major problem. I made my best on making a "movie" costume but I am not an ancient costume researcher (I don't know if I wrote it right). I believe that an isolated civilization is condemned to evolve very slowly (as its fashion) but there is an enormous difference between what I think and what I can do.
Step 04: background. A lot of cave images mixed together.
P.S.: Did you notice that Diana's comic book costume has nothing in common to an ancient greek culture? I believe this would have to be revisited.
One more thing: I do not endorse the idea of having this woman in the Wonder Woman's role. I simply liked her pose in the original photo. |

For the cover challenge I wanted to combine vintage DC logos and modern characters. Arisia and Katma were two of the many alien Green Lanterns that visited Earth. I got lucky finding good flying poses so the only frakensteining I did was changing their arms and hair. The background, shuttle and astronauts were all found using Alta Vista image search.

| I spent alot of time on this one. I used a very large base pic for both the city and the model. After some serious tweaking, I got it to blend about as good as I could get it. I spent the majority of the time on the model herself. The rest of the time was getting all the hues to blend. I really am please with the way this one turned out. ENJOY!! |

This is a poser redo of a Steve Ditko Spider-man picture that was in The Sinister Six annual. Sandman is Tom Sizemore. After smudging his face and eyes around to make him look angry he ended up looking like Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. I added the highlights to the hair to help the darker image show up against the black background. I scanned the Ditko picture and tried to reproduce the pose of Spider-man in poser. I got it almost perfect. I used the comic image of the Sandman and traced the outline of the pose on a transparent layer. I tried to do him in poser but it looked too much like a video game. I ended up doing him entirely with an airbrush and pen and the old dodge and burn. The logo at the top took hours. I did my own Spider-man costume and webbing. I'm getting so good at it I can do a full Spider-man in costume in about an hour and a half. I used a nude pose and I copied and pasted it on top of itself. I hued the one on the bottom red and the one on the top blue. I just cut the red parts of the costume out of the blue layer to reveal the red beneath. I did the webbing on a transparent layer with a 2 point pen tool. When I'm done I gausian blur the webbing layer .4 pixels. That is with a 600 pixel wide picture at 300 pixels per inch. I've seen the downloadable costumed poser figures but I like to do it myself. The sand was done with a tan airbrush and then I used the film grain filter set at varying degrees for effect.

| The Scorpion is a Ditko pose in poser, Goblin is a manipped Bowen Designs statue and the Lizard is part Frankensteined things and a velociraptor head from Jurassic Park. The base pic of the street and buildings was really pixelated because it was taken from a screen capture of a TV show. I put 4 cars on the street and removed some that were there. I added 50 fleeing people on the street, a pedestrian crossing sign and a couple of traffic lights, six pigeons and I added room interiors on 3 of the windows on the building on the right. That's me in the window pointing at Spider-man. I didn't spend too much time on each of the smaller characters because I was going to blur them and the details wouldn't be visible at the size they would be displayed. I wanted the only images with details to be Spider-man and the Vulture |

| Jetsons

| I tried using actors and costuming them as the Jetsons but it looked terrible. I ended up using a picture I found on the internet of Jetsons statues for most of their bodies. I couldn't just put heads on the statues because they were, like the cartoon, in rediculous proportions. George has no shoulders and short legs. Jane and Judy have a waist smaller than Barbie and tiny necks and they all had over-sized heads. I decided to split the difference and make them as caricatures. I widened their waists and adjusted their proportions but not enough to make them realistic and not too far from the cartoon. Cogswells Cogs is the Cloud City of Bespin from the Empire Strikes Back. That's Elizabeth Shue as Jane, Tom Hanks as George, Tara Reid as Judy, Jake Lloyd as Elroy, Scooby-Doo as Astro and, of course, Danny Devito as Spacely. I'm not sure if I achieved what I visualized but I'm glad I did it anyway. |

| The background is the road from the first Batman movie after the Batplane had flown down the street. The body of Spider-man was done in poser and the costume was hand painted in photoshop. That's Ben Kinglsey as the Vulture, Oded Fehr is Kraven, Tom Sizemore is the Sandman. I added the car and the bus too. This was made to be a 1024 x 768 wallpaper |

Here it is! The finished project. Sorry I took so long but life stepped in to slow me down. I wish I could have had this done on time,and I really felt bad about letting Android down. But we still put it together.
Anyway. Being that she uses any and every hero powers that we can come up with, here is my take on Lady HeroMorph.
It was hard to find what I needed so I had to do some cut and paste to get her into this pose.
"Making of: Dennis Newman's head mixed with another two different bodybuilder's images.
Earth found on Google and very manipulated.
Lightning effects, nebulae and stars made by hand.
Description: A classic scene of Crisis on Infinite Earths (an enormous cliche). The two web sites, through a cosmic anomaly, touch themselves creating great catastrophe."

I figure with the X-Men down a telepath/telekinetic after X2, they're gonna need some new brainpower for the team. Enter Elizabeth Lee Braddock, the Brit born, psy-blade wielding newest member of the X-Men. Throw in some new romantic tension between Bets, Scott, and Logan and you've got yourself a sequel! |

| HM - C2F Crossover: Quicksilver By Shaylinn & Flash By Aharmona
Aharmona DC Comics 2004/8/10 20:28

Well Shaylinn worked diligently on her Quicksilver and patiently waited for my Flash to finally arrive. This was an idea I was very nervous about; with Flash being my favorite character, I wanted my first manip to be perfect. I think the crossover went very well and I had a fantastic partner in Shaylinn. I think our desire to use the same model allowed us to see our manipping styles and really push each other to better ourselves.
Shaylinn's original comments:
We decided if we were going to do a cross we would cross everything ;) So since aharmona is more of DC fan and I'm a Marvelite we decided to do a Flash/Quicksilver crossover and while we were at it did a crossgender as well. So for the manip itself.... aharmona provided the base image so I am unsure of the model. Started with a nude image and reworked and recolored both the costume pieces and the hair to match QS. The costume was done with three separate layers of recoloring and then cutting out the correct shapes. Then a couple of layer effects over and I was lucky enough to get the shine you see. Then since aharmona was going to have Flash on the Cosmic treadmill I thought I would have QS working on an "alien machine" to account for the pose. So I found a cool image on the net that I frankensteined into the device you see. The globe on the top was originally silver but a layer effect gave me the glowing orb look I wanted. Once that was set I had to slightly alter the position of QS's back arm and the back leg so they would rest on the machine. I also altered the angle and reworked both feet since in the original pic she was on her tip toes. And I shortened her hair a bit to something I felt was more appropriate for a speedster. The background is two images I found on the net worked together with lightning added to the Flash side and that side recolored to match Flash's dominant color. I was trying for a spacial rift sort of feel trying to make it seem as if they were working from their own universes to save both. |
