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.

Wow! Lots of compliments and comments on this one. I'm glad y'all liked it and a big thank you to everyone who took the time to say so. Nice to see there still fans of these characters out there too!

Now lets see about some individual replies.

Bikerbot - you're right about the title lettering, I got a little lazy on that part and used a cover scan. The glow-y parts are my subtle swipe at all the "enhanced" covers that are used these days. This cover would glow in the dark!

BarnabusBlackoak - the only name given for the model is Hanna, although the hair I used for Arisia is more well known, it came from Renee O'Connor who played Gabreille on Xena Warrior Princess.

soccerkd11 - Thanks for defending my pic, the reasons you stated match my own. Although I don't think android's comments were a critism of my work, but those of a fellow artist offering his thoughts on what could be improved.

android - having green highlights on the GL's costumes and skin would be more photo realistic and I actually experimented with this a little bit during the manipping process. While I managed to get some nice effects on the dark parts of their costumes, the white gloves didn't look right and more importantly (to me anyway) it changed Katma's red/purple skin tone into a dull brown, so I abandoned the idea and went with the traditional GL look, which I think works nicely. I do however appreciate your suggestions and that you liked my work very much.

I think this is really good, it's very glow-y. It tells the story of the story, so to speak, very well (shuttle had explosion while astronauts were outside, GL Corps to the rescue!). If I was going to quibble about anything, you could have spent more time on the lettering, especially the title lettering. I only say that because Photoshop is so good/easy at manipulating text.

Lots of stuff to compliment here, so I'll stick to
giving you a silver-age thumbs up for using the old
DC logo, the Code stamp and the "go-go" checks!
Nice job!

I feel that I should step in and defend the artwork here. The artist followed vintage and even modern style Green Lantern art in haveign them sillowetted in Green, that allows the characters skin color and costume design to show through to the reader.

Do you know what would be interesting?

Since both women are protected by their rings, I think their skin colors could have more green. How about some green lights on the space clothes?

Also, you could rearrange their facial expressions to show us the urgency on the scene.

But, above all, I am only saying those things because I like your work very much. Well done. Good image researches.
