| Frankie Raye by Brick Brick 2004/2/8 15:04 3843 4
Well, I havent posted anything in awhile, and todayI found myself playing with fire. This went together very quickly and I didnt really have any particular character in mind.
I would have titled it Nova except I had forgotten she was shiny at that point. |

| Dagger by Heroglyph Heroglyph 2004/2/5 9:40 8474 8
This one is pretty simple, but the model really reminded me of Dagger. I updated it based on feedback to make the costume look more like cloth and seperate from her skin. |

| "Memorium" - Maggie Q as Psylocke Angelophile 2004/2/5 6:47 8345 10
Originally I planned to produce an image of the early Psylocke from the X-men comics, but gradually that changed to producing two manips of Betsy then and her more recent incarnation (in the body of an Asian ninja). In the end though, the latter took over completely. (It was a lot easier to find pictures of women in leather than pink chifon. Go figure.) A large number of pictures were used in the creation of this manip - The legs are Sarah Michelle Gellar's, the torso created from a number of leather tops. All in all it's a bit of a mix mash, the only 'complete ' element is the face of Hong Kong star Maggie Q as Psylocke's actress.
(Edit - Tidied up the hair and arms where they looked a bit blurred, as well as trying to standardise her flesh and leather tones.) |

| THE PUNISHER #1 COVER CEREAL_KILLER 2004/2/4 8:59 4825 9
DISCLAIMER: This image consist of one ore more pictures from different source material (i.e. internet, periodicals, books etc.) to resemble a character owned by Marvel Comics. No permission was asked or given.
It has been a while since I submitted anything (art wise to this site); and while this was not the picture I intended to submit first it was the one that I felt was the most finished.
Using a picture of Thomas Jane (the actor playing the Punisher in the movie version of the comic) I basically pieced together a close facsimile of the original Tim Bradstreet????????s Punisher # 1 Cover. (See original cover here http://www.punisher-art.com/artists/bradstreet/covers/bradstreet_maxi/bradstreet_1.jpg).
The hardest part (and also the part I don????????t think I fully captured) was the orange tint the original picture had, but I did what I could with out killing the whole picture with orange.
While I welcome praise I would appreciate ???????CONSTRUCTIVE??????? criticism more (if you don????????t like me or something I????????ve done don????????t take it out on my work). And I am constantly checking my old work to see it there are any new comments so even if my work is old by the website????????s standards if it????????s new to you leave your two cents

| Storm Freshmutt 2004/2/2 3:33 4264 5
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. |
|
| Slingers Squedge 2004/1/27 16:54 3981 3
The last thing I'll post tonight...
Probably my favorite of all the pieces I've done. The base pics/poses were rendered as nude bodies (without genitalia) in Poser, and then wverything else was added digitally. Costumes, hair, background, etc... All digital painting.
The ONLY bit that's real is the smidge of Edward Norton's face that I used for Hornet's face... Oh... And I lifted the logo from a comic book, then touched it up and textured it (glossy/-ish).

| "Bad to the Bone" - Fairuza Balk as Marrow Angelophile 2004/1/27 3:27 6943 9
Another old pic but one I'm most pleased with. This photomanip takes one of the most underrated X-men characters and uses Fairuza Balk (The Craft, American History X) as her 'fantasy casting'. The body model is Angelina Jolie, taken from a Tomb Raider publicity still. Bones came from various sources. |
|
| Deathbird 01 Divine_Monkey711 2004/1/25 2:58 4461 3
An old manip (the first I actually finished) of Deathbird. Some good, some bad. But I had to try. Guess I have a thing for beutiful, psycho-killer women!? I wonder what Freud would say about that. ;) |

| Namorita's got the blues Divine_Monkey711 2004/1/25 2:53 6081 6
A manip of Playmate Buffy Tyler as Namorita, during her blue-skinned period. The metal looks like crap, but the wings were fun to do. |

| Storm lights it up Divine_Monkey711 2004/1/25 2:50 4390 5
Well, it's not Halle Barry. It's an old manip with a member of Destiny's child as Storm (don't remember the name), but i thought I should submit it anyway. |

| "Class Reunion" - The New Mutants Angelophile 2004/1/24 14:29 9007 10
Finally finished this piece which has taken me just over a month in all to complete. Would have been done sooner but kept adding more characters.
In the end from left to right, with their actors and actresses, the characters are Sunspot Aka Roberto DeCosta (Wilmer Valderrama), Mirage Aka Danielle Moonstar (Karina Lombard), Meltdown Aka Tabitha Smith (Christina Applegate), Magma Aka Amara Aquilla (Unknown), Wolfsbane Aka Rahne Sinclair (Kiera Knightley), Karma Aka Xi'an Coy Manh (Jaymee Ong) and Cannonball Aka Samuel Guthrie (Christopher Masterson).
All work was done in Photoshop 7 using a mix of visual effects created with Photoshop's own filters in conjunction with Eye Candy 4000 and Alien Skin Xenofex.
Hope everyone agrees the end result was worth all the work. |

I know that this is a very simple piece. But I thought I would put it up any ways. I don't think that I need to explain how I did it. But if you look real close, you can see her eyes. Enjoy |

| "Free" - Heath Ledger as Angel Angelophile 2004/1/21 1:49 4282 4
Continuing my posting of my older manips.
A photomanip that sprung to mind for no particular reason other than it will get a few friends of mine swooning. :) The actor Heath Ledger (of A Knight's Tale fame) seemed to have the right features and 'look' for Warren as I imagined him. His face was a basis for the manip. The body came from a random tailoring site, while the feet came from another image. The background was also found randomly on the web. The wings are an amalgamation of those worn by Alan Rickman in Dogma and some worn by Jennifer Lopez for a FHM photoshoot. The image was compiled in Photoshop 7 and finished off using the Little Fluffy Clouds filter.

| "Ecstacy" - Angelina Jolie as Stacy X Angelophile 2004/1/14 5:02 6769 2
Continuing my posting of my older manips while I play catch up with my New Mutants pic.
Stacy isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I was just beginning to really like the character when she was binned from Uncanny X-men. So this is my tribute to a character with a lot of potential. Got to love the self proclaimed 'first X-man to make a living on her back'.
The snake skin effects were produced with photos of various snakes from the web,combined with other reptile pics, and then imported with use of the opacity and hue and saturation control panels in Photoshop 7.
The background image came from a performance troupe called the Fluffgirl Society. Don't ask me what they perform, I didn't dare guess from the pic.

Just a preview of the manip I'm currently working on - this is the part for Dani Moonstar that I finished tonight.
Hopefully it leaves people wanting to see more. ;)
Comments always appreciated so I can get it right on the final version! |

| "Intangible" - Lacey Chabert as Shadowcat Angelophile 2004/1/12 3:18 6883 5
Since I've been a bit tied up working on a new manip, I have a couple of old pieces still to post. This is one of them. Obviously inspired by the comic look for Shadowcat, Lacy Chabert sprung to mind after her appearance in Lost in Space and she seems to have the right look for the young Kitty Pryde.
Images came from various sources - the clothing is a blend of actual clothes and in some places simply the manipulation of skin with the Smart Blur tool to give a leather effect. The basic pose is Kelly Brook, and for once I didn't do an awful lot beyond adding clothing, combining various elements from fashion websites. |

| "Mall Rat" - Victoria Jolly as Jubilee Angelophile 2003/12/16 11:28 5785 4
I'd been toying with the idea of a Jubilee manip for a while, but didn't get around to doing anything about it until fairly recently - for Jubilee's actress I've used model/actress Victoria Jolly who seems to have the features and youngish looks that Jubilee has always had. I've had fun with this image, lifting elements from around 30 other model pics to create the image - for example, the coat is actually made up from 3 different jackets, the top Jubilee is wearing is from Christina Aguilera, the legs are Donna Air's, the hair came from a style catalogue, the hands belong to Krista Allen and Pamela Anderson - there's the usual Frankenstein's mix of body parts there. |
