i've had this base for a while and that other pic of nova was the push i needed to do something with it.
the only thing i can't seem to work out is getting the starry reflections on the body, right now it just looks like gold paint. if any one has any ideas please let me know. |

| This is Nova the herald of Galactus. The base is olympic diver Erin Quinn turned upside-down. I inverted the light and dark and used various photoshop effects on her skin. Everything else is from scratch. |

I tried my best to eke out a decent picture despite the low rez base(s).
This puppy weighs in at a whopping 60 kb. Do you think it works?
<edit> Oh yeah... Max still has not given me my fancy new logo yet, so standard text message was applied.

i did something quite stupid with this.
i started off making just the mask and i liked how it turned out so then i began making the rest of the suit but i couldn't get the mask and the suit to look the same. it hopefully isn't that noticeable but to me it sticks out a mile.
next time i'll leave the rest of her costume and post it i the adult gallery, i'm sure there's an audience for naked swinging spider-chicks.
this is also the debut of my logo, almost every one has one, so....! |

| Yeah yeah, i know Janet probably doens't do much motorcycle riding, but i figured this background would be cool for scale purposes. Plus, it gave me the opportunity to make that nifty liscense plate. Also, i am well aware that she has red hair, not black, but i like this model and i plan on using her for a couple of other Wasp pics i have planned. So there. Enjoy! Comments welcome, requested, and appreciated. |

Tori started out standing on a kitchen counter in the base pic, and the reason her head's chopped off is that's the way it was in the base, and I felt like leaving it that way. Spider-Girl is off the cover of #65. Lightning was done using a tutorial, plus setting one of the lightning layers to Screen. The second-to-last 10% on this one was her mask, I threw away the first version. This is another one to answer Optical's challenge. On this one I _did_ make the background. Don't be surprised if it shows up again...
Oops! Spelled the word "Zzzzap" wrong. |

My first attempt at an entirely "Frankensteined" piece. All of teh body parts came from various pics of Dina Meyer (Starship troopers/Birds of Prey) except for the legs and chest which belong to Angelica Bridges. I found a pic of her in fantasy gear. Apparently she played Red Sonja on the short lived Conan TV series a few years ago.
The hardest part was getting all of the lighting to match up as well as getting the skin tones to mesh. Some of the bodyparts still seem a little off, especially the hands, but I am calling this one done for now. |

| honestly i never even considered this character for a manip... until i saw this base pic. i couldn't pass it up. essentially a quickie, it was more of a practice piece than anything else. i wanted to do a lot of frankensteining (everything she's wearing except the fur thing) and i wanted to experiment with fur for my cat-themed manip in progress. plus i haven't posted anything new since heromorph has been back up. |

1st repost of this. Here's hoping there won't be a second...
This was created as a response to Optical's call for me to use a background. Exponentially more work when using a background, but I learned a lot. This one was almost done, then it sat for weeks. Why is the last 10% of a Manip always the most difficult?
*G!* |

| Possibly my most ambitious effort to date, it all finally came together and made sense this afternoon. i was originally gonna do about 6 villains, but decided to just go with these four. i'm especially happy with the way Blackout's darkforce power is represented in the background, and i like the way Eel II's superslick coated battlesuit came out. things i'm not sure i got right, and would like tips on, would be Titania's hair, and the lenses in Yellowjacket's goggles. Enjoy! |

| So i "finished" this manip a month or two ago, never could get a background to work because the hair was proving just too time consuming for me to want to deal with. i figured i'd never post it, but i wound up using it to test an idea i had about making costumes look a little thicker, so i tried it out. i guess i'll go ahead and post it background-less, as sort of a preview of the Masters of Evil project i'm working on... |

| I don't know if these are technically photomanips, howver they are manipping photos onto existing images so it's close enough. These are the three manipped Greg Horn images that formed the backdrop to my FXM/Emma Frost Piece. I manipped Jaime Presley's face onto each of the images and then unified the cholor schemes into a pale faux sepia tone. Just thought you might like to see the details. |

Ok, I wanted to do a follow up to my Elektra/Loss Adjuster pic for a while now, and when I found this pic of Cindy Crawford I immediately thought it would make a great base for She-Hulk, Jennifer Walters.
The source image was a bit messy so I had to do some tidying before I began. The first thing I did was to broaden the shoulders and deepen the chest using the free deform tool. This was then blended back into the original image. I then created a mask of 'shulkie' so I could keep things neat later. The background is created from scratch over the original murky black curtain. I used some mauve gradient fills to create a floor/wall join and to provide some lighting. I used the same effect to create the window behind 'shulkie' making a faux 3d effect to frame the image of new york street signs I found on google. The spidey is taken from a pic of a statue of him peeking in another window. I shaded him to make him darker and as if lit from the room. Over spidey and the street seen I created a glass pane using the noise filter then motion and gausian blur to give it some interest, and a white/black gradient to make it look shiny. The brief case was another google find which to which I added Walters stenciling and a shadow and floor reflection to blend it with the image.
All pretty simple stuff, but I just wanted to make sure I kept my basic skills up during a dry creative spell |

Well here it is! I've been working on this on and off for a while now and its finaly finished. Its the first time I've maniped the Scarlet Witch and I have to say I'm pritty pleased how its turned out. I have tryed out some new techniques for me on this one like the texture effect on her clothes and the coller. Any way I'd be greatful for your thoughts as always.

| Christina Aguilera as Mockingbird. Not the best casting choice, perhaps, but I have a reason: this is actually a re-make of my "the Lynx -original character" manip. When I finished it, I thought: hey, this should be easy to make into mockingbird. Well, it wasn't. But here it is. Hope u like it! |
