| The Last Rose of Winter blubeetle3 DC Comics 2005/3/20 10:29 4241 8
To celebrate the first day of Spring, Ice (from the JLI) says good-bye to Winter. |
|
| Ice: Tweaked! blubeetle3 DC Comics 2005/4/10 16:58 3201 8
I spent a lot of time this weekend just tweaking characters I created on Poser. Ice here is one.
I have a genuine, authentic Marvel Comics "No Prize" for the first person who guesses correctly what got changed on her. |

| Blue Beetle Mini Poster blubeetle3 DC Comics 2005/6/22 17:15 3567 6
A nice BIG picture of Blue Beetle. Print it out. Hang it on your wall.
I know. I know. Just what you wanted! |
|
| Better Days blubeetle3 DC Comics 2005/6/26 19:40 4965 16
Remember when comics were fun? I do. Ya gotto love the JLI. This is my first major group shot using Poser. It would have been easier if my computer were powerful enough to let me pose all six figures at once. Alas, it is not. So, the ol' "cut-n-paste" skills came in handy. |

| They were... FORMERLY KNOWN AS THE JUSTICE LEAGUE! blubeetle3 DC Comics 2005/7/4 8:59 5033 17
Recreating a comic cover, even one without a background, is never easy to do. The fact that there are seven characters in the picture doesn't make it easier.
But, all in all, I think it came out well. What do you think? |

| Justice League International: REBOOTED! blubeetle3 DC Comics 2005/7/11 15:55 4607 10
What if the nations of the world found out about the JLA's dirty little "mindwipe" secret? What if the nations of the world pushed the United Nations into severing ties with the JLA and forming a new superhero group to be govern by the U.N.? What if there were a new JUSTICE LEAGUE INTERNATIONAL formed?
"They're BA-AAACK!" |
|
| Booster Gold: BOOSTER-RIFIC!!! blubeetle3 DC Comics 2005/9/3 15:12 3861 9
How can you have Beetle without Booster? You don't have to. Here he is in all his shiny glory! |
|
| Fire: Too Hot! blubeetle3 DC Comics 2005/9/3 15:15 4146 2
You've seen Blue Beetle, Booster Gold, and Ice. Now, it's Fire's turn! |
|
| Guy Gardner: Real American Hero?!!! blubeetle3 DC Comics 2005/9/3 15:17 2751 3
Well, at least in Guy's mind he is!
This is still a work in progress, but, I'm getting closer (inch by inch, little by little) to what I want. The hair still bothers me though. |
|
| In Memorium blubeetle3 DC Comics 2005/9/3 15:18 3918 12
I'm guessing the language in my last attempt to post this was too profane.
Suffice it to say that I'm extremely upset with DC Comics. Preview issues of DC's "Countdown" book have come out and Blue Beetle is the latest victim in DC's ever-darkening universe. I lament the fact that there is no room for humor there anymore. |

| Silver Sorceress: Re-Imagined! blubeetle3 DC Comics 2005/9/3 15:38 4269 6
"Who in the flipping HECK is the Silver Soceress?"
The Silver Sorceress was a character created in the pages of the old JLI comic books. She was one of a trio of superheroes who came from an alternate (Marvel-based) Earth that was destroyed during a nuclear war. Silver Sorceress (Scarlet Witch), Blue Jay (Ant-Man), and Wandjina the Thunderer (Thor) were determined not to let that happen on DC's Earth and set about ridding the world of ALL nuclear weapons.
The one thing that always bugged me about the Silver Sorceress was that her costume WASN'T silver! It was a bronze color. (Someone should have notified the colorist.) So, here is the RE-IMAGINED Silver Sorceress. And when I think "skin-tight, silver bodysuit" (and, really, who doesn't think about it), I think of ol' "7 o' 9". |
|
| The Blue Beetle: Ready for Action! blubeetle3 DC Comics 2005/9/3 15:43 3882 13
Yes, I'm back with a vengeance. This is the very first character I created with Poser 5 (hmm...I wonder why?). The Blue Beetle- adventurer, super-genius, beloved by women everywhere (o.k. I'm pushing it with that last one)! Steve Ditko's greatest creation! Yeah, that's right, Spidey! DITKO'S GREATEST CREATION! |
|
| Love in the Afterlife? blubeetle3 DC Comics 2005/9/3 23:25 3998 8
I rendered this pic and immediately thought, "Jeez! This looks like the cover to some cheesey romance novel!" So, I says to myself, "Self, why not do it?" Plus, I haven't post anything in awhile.
Sooooo...
"Blue Beetle and Ice. Former teammates. Both had their lives taken from them too early. Can they find a second chance with each other after death? Can they find... LOVE IN THE AFTERLIFE?" |
|
| Broken Trinity blubeetle3 DC Comics 2005/9/12 14:53 5017 9
Uh-oh! This time I "sold-out" big time! Not one... not two... but, THREE "first-stringers"! I'm soooo ashamed of myself right now that you wouldn't believe it! |
|
| SUPERHERO SMACKDOWN: In the Bug blubeetle3 Smackdown 2006/5/27 17:30 3680 5
In the past, I've been lambasted for lack of backgrounds in my renders. So, I decided to put Blue Beetle (YES! Steve Ditko's GREATEST creation!) in the Bug, the best superhero vehicle in comics. Plus, this is my entry into the SUPERHERO SMACKDOWN! |
|
| Beware FAN FICTION! blubeetle3 DC Comics 2006/5/28 10:46 3435 12
Blue Beetle and Ice are SHOCKED (SHOCKED, I tell you!) by a dirty little piece of fiction written by a hack!
I told y'all that THAT picture would make a good romance novel cover. |
|
| J'Onn J'Onzz: MARTIAN MANHUNTER blubeetle3 DC Comics 2006/5/29 8:50 2437 2
J'Onn J'Onzz: Martian Manhunter. Heart and soul of the Justice League. A member of every incarnation from the beginning to the present day.
Looking through my gallery, I saw that I never posted a non-group pic of Old Greenie. So, I dusted him off, add the nifty background from the "Olympus Mons" set, and viola! |
|
| Playing With Fire blubeetle3 DC Comics 2006/5/29 8:59 3270 12
Sooo... Who wants to play with Fire? |
|
| Power Girl Week: "Ticket to the GUNSHOW!" blubeetle3 DC Comics 2006/6/10 11:52 4846 8
YEAH! POWER GIRL WEEK! WOO-HOO!
Just in time to show off my version of her updated costume. |
|
| BB3's Homage to AH! REDUX blubeetle3 DC Comics 2006/6/12 18:12 2987 7
I've redone this little homage to Adam Hughes (the BEST damned "good girl" artist in comicbooks). I think my skills at Poser have grown since my first attempt at this and thought I'd give it another go. |
|
| JLI Classified: BLUE BEETLE blubeetle3 DC Comics 2006/6/17 9:37 2832 4
I had this series just sitting in my hard drive. Think of it as a "Who's Who" only set during the JLI era of the League.
Print 'em out. Collect 'em. Trade 'em with your friends (if ya got any). |
|

| JLI Classified: GUY GARDNER blubeetle3 DC Comics 2006/6/19 15:09 2310 1
Fourth pic in the series.
Taking my time and keepin' it under the limit this time. You CAN teach an old dog new tricks. |
|
| JLI Classified: ICE blubeetle3 DC Comics 2006/6/19 15:16 2690 3
Fifth (FIF!) pic in the series.
Gonna keep on the low side of the limit today. More (but, not TOO many more) tomorrow. Same Bat-time. Same bat-channel. |
|

Sixth pic in the series.
Is tomorrow here already? I guess not. But, this is it. For now. More later if people demand it. |
|
| Mary Marvel: Sweet Sixteen blubeetle3 DC Comics 2006/6/29 18:26 3849 9
She looks all grown-up, but, she's still a teenager. And there's an old saying where I come from: "Sixteen will get you twenty!" |
|
| Superhero Smackdown: Seduction of the (Semi-)Innocent blubeetle3 Smackdown 2006/7/7 17:37 4145 8
Every superhero has a weakness. Superman and kryptonite. Martian Manhunter and fire. Batman and humility.
Blue Beetle's weakness? His tragic flaw? BEAUTIFUL WOMEN!
With this in mind, two members of Team One try to... ahem... persuade Blue Beetle into forming an alliance. Will Blue Beetle stay true to Team Two? Will he sell out? Will he become a midnight snack for Vampirella? Will Wonder Woman call him "Teddy Bear"? |
|
| SUPERHERO SMACKDOWN: Crisis of Conscience! blubeetle3 Smackdown 2006/7/9 11:55 3741 7
Blue Beetle has an internal debate about whether to accept Wonder Woman and Vampirella's offer or not. His guardian angel and guardian devil argue the merits of their case. |
|
| SUPERHERO SMACKDOWN: "An Offer You Can't Refuse!" blubeetle3 Smackdown 2006/7/23 16:25 3914 7
Wonder Woman, upset by the defection of Vampirella to Team Two, has redoubled her efforts (because... y'know... her and Vampi were working as a team. With Vampi gone, WW has to do ALL the work!) to entice Blue Beetle. No corner will be cut. No expense will be too high. Wonder Woman will get her man! |
