English glamour model, Lucy Pinder, as Lara Croft, crawling around in some evil-infested jungle ruin.
This took a lot of work. The clothes were all from scratch and I had to redo her hair. The background was done in photoshop using 2-point perspective (this would have been easier if I had a 3D modeling app) and decorated with found photos. The reflection in the water is practically another manip. I Frankensteined parts of my original Lara onto another pic of Pinder. The pistol was a found photo. |

This time I used real metal for the costume. I manipped the ornament from the top of a flag into the breastplate and tiara.
This is my official 2005 Wonder Woman manip. I've done one every year since 1999.
Update: Okay here are those baby blues. Thanks Jr. |

Pamela Isley relaxes at her rooftop garden after a long day of floral felonies and botanical badness.
I used Photoshop's Pattern Maker to cover model Susan Smith with poison ivy leaves. I dyed her hair and greened her eyes and lips. The Gotham City skyline is a maniped Chicago from Google. |

| Wonder Woman Costume

With this version of Wonder Woman, I am focusing on a realistic costume as it might appear in a movie. The problem with the Linda Carter costume, beside looking like a showgirl's, is that it is one piece anchored at her hips. (Type "Lucy Lawless nip slip" into Google images to see what happens when you move your upper body too much while wearing such a rig. NSFW) A real WW costume would have to be two pieces.
Here Maria Menounos is wearing a leather corset topped with Byzantine style lamellar. Each feather is a separate piece of metal. When laced together they form solid-looking yet flexible armor. The Celtic circlet features a Burmese star ruby (round with a star effect inside) rather than a red star just painted on.
Thanks to everyone who helped me with advice. |

Screen legend Jane Russell as the golden age Wonder Woman.
I used two different black and white shots of Russell and pieced them at the waist and colorized them. The lasso is a real rope and the eagle is from the back of a quarter. All other costume elements were drawn in Photoshop.

This is one of those times where the base pic
(http://www.amber-frey.net/pics2/Tyra-Banks-bra-1.jpg) just jumps up and says, "Do me!"
The hair, the pose, the make-up, they all seemed like Tigra to me. She was even wearing a bra with a chunky piece of jewelry in the center.
I figured since the photo was obviously designed with Tigra in mind, I might as well finish it. |

| This is my official Wonder Woman manip for 2008. I was inspired by the Smackdown to do a sexy/funny strip instead of just a pinup. Thanks to Android for providing the first panel base pic. The models are Suzanne Carlsson and Katie Couric. |

Gifted with human feelings, yet cursed to be the bride of Ultron, tragic Jocasta craves the Avengers acceptance, though they can never fully trust her.
The main base is model Irina Voronina. The mirror-like finish was achieved by screening distorted pieces of an earlier manip onto her colorized skin. You may be able to pick out bits of your favorite Avengers in the reflections.
To see Jocasta's POV, check out my Avengers manip. |

"I'm not a movie poster, not yet a cover replica."
Dazzler is Britney Spears from the Live in Las Vegas poster. Enchantress is Christina Aguilera. Spider-man is Tobey (maybe) from the movie. Iron Man is the Horizon model. Nightcrawler is Alan Cumming, who was in X2.
The design is based on Dazzler #1's cover. |

My first group shot. I made this in 2002.
I think the Avengers would make a great movie or TV series. Here's my casting:
Iron Man is a Horizon model (imagine Dylan McDermott inside); Wasp is Christina Ricci; Scarlet Witch is Paulina Porizkova; Captain America is Casper Van Dien; and She-Hulk is Gabrielle Reece.
Kang on the monitor is from Avengers 469 by Kieron Dwyer. |

Every so often I take a stab at the Wonder Woman costume. This time I used my wife, Jamie, as the model.
All of the costume pieces were created from scratch in Photoshop. The background is from the Black Hawk Down game |

Here????????s Warbird buzzing her namesake.
The model is Natasha Henstridge of ???????She Spies.??????? While there are a lot of pics of her on the www, there are none I could find of her in flight. This pose was Frankensteined together from 8 different pictures, all of Natasha. So several hours went into this before I even got to the costume stage.
The plane is from a company in Florida. |

I have always wanted Iman to play Storm in the movies. And I think the original costume is still the best.
This is my first photo-manip where none of the original photo is left. I completely painted over it in Photoshop. |
