| This is a portrait of Cmdr. Emmanuelle Sharon, the character I created for my main Mass Effect playthrough (in the game, of course, she's Emmanuelle Shepard.) I think this is probably one of the best renders I've ever done in terms of technique; I'm especially pleased with how the lighting and textures came out. |

| Birdeater

A jorogumo (spider woman), the woman who calls herself Birdeater possesses the ability to feed off of people who have connections to birds. For centuries, her peculiar diet led her to prey on chicken farmers and the occasional takagari enthusiast, but during WWII, she became a nemesis to Tancho, Imperial Japan's crane-themed champion. After his death in the war, she preyed upon his widow, convincing her to take up his mantle to ensure that she herself would not go hungry, but the two women eventually fell in love, and lived happily together for many years.
When her lover died of natural causes in the 90s, Birdeater left Japan and migrated to Boston. As luck would have it, the industrialist Sam Ibis had become the vigilante Thoth to clean up his old neighborhood, and so for a few years, she bedeviled him, before one of his other enemies crippled him, ending his career.
Her next meal may not be far away, however; Ibis has passed on much of his old equipment to the new Red Owl. Barely into her twenties, the young superheroine might be able to provide years' worth of sustenance.
Possibly thousands of years old, Birdeater has potent mental abilities, enabling her to manipulate others, and can change her shape, though usually takes the shape of a beautiful Japanese woman in her early thirties. She draws sustenance by biting and drinking the blood of her victims, all of whom have some sort of connection to birds. As a rule, she takes only enough blood to sustain herself, and does not prey on the defenseless. Though she often prefers to feed upon one victim multiple times, she often develops romantic feelings for repeat victims... |

"Roy Henry Harris was a washed-up former actor who was chosen by mysterious forces to become a solar-powered champion. As Perihelion, the Human Sun, he fought crime and protected the Earth from extraterrestrial threats throughout the 60s and 70s. However, in the 80s, he mysteriously disappeared, and has never been seen since..."
One of my older ideas. Lately, I've been trying to revisit some of the older superheroes I created so that my current superhero stories have more of a backstory to them. Of course, some of the older heroes, I can't even remember what the hell the underlying ideas were behind them... |

| Red vs. Black: Blackface

"When the black costumed vigilante Thoth began waging a campaign to wipe out crime in his neighborhood of Hughes' Point, white real-estate developer Randall Bates moved to try and stop him, fearing that if Thoth's campaign were successful, his own efforts to buy up and gentrify the neighborhood would fail. As the makeup-slathered gangster named Blackface, he plunged Hughes' Point back into chaos and left Thoth (and his alter ego, Sam Ibis) crippled.
"Bates is dead now, but Blackface lives on in the person of his spoiled, vicious daughter Tara, who uses both her business skills and outright violence to rule Hughes' Point with an iron fist.
"But her reign may be coming to an end. Ibis' prot?g?e, the Red Owl, is coming to Hughes' Point to end the makeup-wearing menace once and for all..."
Another rogue for my original superheroine, and some new experimenting with style. I'm planning to render a fight scene between Blackface and Red Owl with a minimal palette of just black, white, and red (although whether or not this will actually work in D|S has yet to be seen...) |
