Normally people dress up as spooks for Halloween. So what do normal spooks do for Halloween--dress up in something silly? Sexy? Or a combination thereof? The housepets are no less amused, as the raven laughs while the dragon gropes.
An interesting combination of traditional (or Matt Busch-style) illustration and 3D digital art |

April heats up the kitchen as a sexy blonde baxter. If you notice the clock hands are so positioned as if to suggest the old nursery rhyme "4 and 20 blackbirds..." etc.
April's 2nd comic is now available at IndyPlanet http://www.indyplanet.com/store/product_info.php?products_id=4134
You've already seen many of the pages in development here at HM over the months, and now all 28 pages are print on demand in blazing color. Total PG fanboy (and fan girl) fare.
And if that's not enough, there's a new foreword by HM's very own Biohaz Daddy! |

I had posted this pic sometime last year, but for some reason it no longer resides in my HM archives. Therefore I am reposting it now, for two reasons:
1) It is going in April's forthcoming pinup book (with a foreword by MissVee). Each pinup has a brief description. They also include excerpted comments from HM and dA, and I wanted to make sure it was cool with you guys to do so. Each pinup has only about 3-5 comments, all anonymous, and I can't remember who said what anyway. Some of your comments were just too delicious to pass up, so I included them with their respective pinups.
2) Also Mr. Hazard thought I should bring this to your attention, for posterity if nothing else. So, to placate the hypertensive Hazard, and maybe get a few comments with the pinup above (the ones I have now are from dA only), hence the repost (riposte?)
Anyway, if any of you mods knows what happened to the original file, please contact me. Thanks all.

Postcard art for my OC April Fewells. Admiral April strikes a pinup pose on another kitschy photography set. Presumably the cut-out ships crash into each other because of the distraction. (I think the Portuguese ship was commanded by Mr. OCP  ) |

I decided to double up on some of these older files since they're rather small, and I still seem to have many of them. So for those that have asked for more I hope this will double your pleasure, double your fun. :)
But if not, we can still take a look at the two I selected. Notice how both use the same headshot for entirely different results. (At least, if I remember correctly they are in fact the same.) Next post I'll do just the opposite, I'll use the same model but with different headshots.
That bat top took most of the work as I recall.

Part of a continuation that has yet to be finished, however the costuming technique seems to be getting easier to render and may be the most natural looking I've done to date.
This one got me kicked off a previous site for the "What a great rack" line. Can you believe it? |

More from the secret police files from the Gotham City Police Dept. Batgirl takes a nosedive. Find out who the culprit is and win a prize from MissVee...at least, I think that's how it works.

You wouldn't believe the junk I had to make this image out of. Perhaps my most franked image to date. But, thanks to MissVee's fine art direction, I believe I've convincingly pulled it off (look up BG by MissVee in the Comic Art Gallery). I practically traced right over it.
It went pretty fast at first, but then after tying eveyrthing together and then texturing, it went v-e-r-y s-lo-w-l-y. Many parts had to be enlarged and painted over to restore resolution. I then used broad areas of color of different values to create a minimal sense of an interior.
I could probably work on this thing forever, but I'm not.  |

BTW this segment may be a bit short, so would anyone like to see CW also get down and dirty? |

One thing I must say about MissVee's art is that she creates some of the most provocative & sexy poses for women. I would even say that they are under appreciated or at least underrated, but I always admire them. For instance, with "BG Seduced by Scarecrow" (http://heromorph.com/heromorph2/modules/myalbum3/photo.php?lid=3974) I saw the immediate value in the work for making some new comic art. I simply took Vee's pose of Batgirl here, and plundered it for my own misuse. However, the homage is paid by digging out the masthead that was implemented previously by yours truly of A Wonder Woman-Black Cat cover (see "Heromorph [Back] Issues", http://heromorph.com/heromorph2/modules/myalbum3/photo.php?lid=2909 ), also based on original art by MV.
The style is a throwback to the old Bronze Age comics. |

Another HM cover for the Vee Stories title, this is a variation on a theme from a previous manip, "Batgirl v. Joker", http://heromorph.com/heromorph2/modules/myalbum/photo.php?lid=7992. The art is stylized once again in the manner of the Bronze Age comic style (hence the 25c and no UPC). This time it's Harley Quinn rather than Joker administering the mayhem on Batgirl, using one of MissVee's very favorite recipes.
Not sure why I left off Harley's tights. |

I wanted an excuse to do some more comic drawing. I got inspired by Vee's recent posts and decided to rework WW and Kat by MissVee (see post in comic art). However the more I worked on it, the more it got out of hand, and it ended up thusly.
My apologies in advance. |

Taken directly from MissVee's terrific original interpretation of a scene from the 60's Batman series, with special guest crook Louie the Lilac. I had begun a version of this before, but changed course and wanted something a bit more urgent than posed, as if Bats was in some real danger of having the heat turned up by henchwoman Lily. ( Vee's original: http://heromorph.com/heromorph2/modules/myalbum2/photo.php?lid=7121 )
Besides, there's something a bit cathartic in the implication that Milton Berle just got wasted. |

Somehow these back issues keep turning up, vintage 1971-72 or so. I didn't know HM was even in business then, let alone had an imprint. Anyway, this is a combination of themes from Detective Comics #341, where Joker is disguised as Batman, & Harley Quinn #10, where Harley impersonates Batgirl.
Of all the Vee covers done thus far, to me this is the most convincing of that late Silver/early Bronze Age comic style.
So what other titles will turn up from the vaults--"House of VampireLover?" "Dungeons & DragonDack?" WonderWas?" "Jr Chronicles of McDeath?"

As those who have been following these posts know, I have been uncovering vintage issues of the HeroMorph Comics imprint from the 1970's. As a change of pace, I found this cover from about 2000-2001 (notice the %1000 jump in cover price and a more up-to-date HM logo). As you can see, the Knockout Vee Stories title continued over the years, reaching to number 161 in this case, and still disavowed by the comics code. Simultaneously published in WTF? Comics which eventually sank them. Truly a rare item. If you don't believe me try finding a copy on Ebay.
(Actually I just wanted to go on to a different comic style.) |

Another find from the archives. Heromorph's premier horror comic from the 1970's, recently found on Ebay.
I've always been a big fan of Berni (or Bernie) Wrightson's brush style, so I thought I'd take a break from the super heroines and start brushing. We seem to have a dearth of horror comics around here, sooo...
The masthead was all hand lettered. The style, the coloring, and the graphics are a throwback to the era of DC's flagship horror comic "The House of Mystery", from the '70's. http://www.coverbrowser.com/covers/house-of-mystery/5 . Judging by this cover, HM wasn't shelling out much money for writers at the time.
This piece is dedicated to Mr. OCP, and his former management at the hostel pension. |
