| Here is the 2nd version of my lauren_anderson supergirl. As you can see, some changes on the boots, skirt, T-shirt and more. What do you think about ? Don't forget to check the original picture on the Adult side, if you want to see the original girl and possibly to assess the manipulation work. |

For all the fanboys out there I thought I'd team-up DC two female powerhouses together for this cover. They would make a good team, I think. They have sort of a good cop/bad cop thing going.
Once again I used Charlie O'Neale (face) for Powergirl and Monica Bellucci as Wonder Woman.
I've also realized that these covers are in the vein of the old She-Hulk covers where she was actually speaking to the reader. Oh, well it works! |

This is my second manip and I hope not the last. I enjoy as much doing them than seeing the work of others. |

| Well, I have to say this was my hardest manip ever, and probably my personal best. I took the idea from a manip I saw on here, featuring Superman,(I hope nobody minds), and I put my own spin on it. This was 3 seperate images to start, all in large format. The original to this pic is HUGE! I spent hours perfecting Supergirl herself, then working in the plane and the background. The overall theme of the pic is cool, but the final product to me is breathtaking! I would appreciate any and all comments that you might have. Gahhh, I tired!!! ENJOY!!!!! |

| Well, here's where I stray from the original A-Next Cover. Darkdevil's head is cut off in the original cover and quite frankly, his costume is too cool not to do. I'll crop it down in the final cover. For those of you non-Spidergirl readers Darkdevil here has the most convoluted-origin-ever! (Imagine I said that like the Simpons comic book guy.) It's the Spider-man clone's son with the remnants of Ghost Rider's abilities and Daredevil's spirit. |

As usual, been working on this a while with varying degrees of success. I almost scrapped the entire piece, but decided to persevere and I think things fell into place. Here Mutant X's Victor Webster has been cast as Gambit.
This was about 80 layers in all, the coat was a sunnuvabitch to manip/frankenstein together.
As always, comments welcome! |

2. Commenting image: The original image is fantastic. I almost did not use it because it would be very easy to reach the desired result. The pose and the shadows made a spectacular photo.

| Hey guys! Been way to busy to even lurk here lately, but I wanted to post my latest. This is a pic I just finished for a kid w/ muscular dystrophy, and a huge spidey fan. That's actually me in a halloween costume made by my wife. I obviously enhanced the lighting (trying to correct it for the background) The rest is all me baby! (How do superheroes stand the heat of the summer months? I was sweating my @$$ off!) Anyway, It was for a good cause! Peace! -Leif. |

| Well this is a manip I have been working on of Kristiana Locken as Supergirl (the actual photomanip isn't finished but I wanted to try something different with what I have done so far.) The original pic of Kristiana was of a magazine cover and she is wearing a purple swimsuit. I manipped on the costume (will provide details when I post the actual finished manip) and then have been trying to tweak it for the past week or so. Anyways I wanted to submit something new and I thought I might try giving it a sketchy look. I have tried this before with various levels of success and failure but I think this one turned out ok. I merged all the layers in my WIP together to get Kristiana in costume cut out on a layer of her own then I found a nice background at eldargraphics.com which matched the lighting and coloring of kristiana quite well. flipped the background to match pose and merged both layers together. duplicated the layer. On one layer I added some random white noise and then used my trusty old penpartner tablet and began to 'scratch' away at the picture to give the impression of pencil strokes. The other layer I used the edge preserving smooth at max and then enhanced edges and finally traced contours to give 'layout' lines and add some definition back to some of the shapes. all in all I think it came out quite well.. and now back to the manip itself. |

And btw, the model is Anna Kournikova, but that's obvious, right? |

| Some frankensteining was used with the cape. I used bedsheets from several pics and smudged em together. Her hand is from a pic of Jenny McCarthy. Some of her hair is from Torrie Wilson, which I touched up with the paintbrush. The model is Jamie Bergman from Son of the Beach. She was leaning against a lifeguard station railing so that's why I had to replace her hand. Done on Photoshop. |

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.
