WHATCHOOSAY??


Lol
fun idea I came up with today. So while they're all in their space base, Superman getting kicked in the crotch by Wonder Woman and Batman giggling in the background XD
Yeah, yeah, man of steel. However Wonder Woman is strong as hell too. She stopped one of those nuke things on that ape planet from exploding with her bare hands and letting it land on herself (Dat ep was so cute! Batman was all like 'Diana! No!' and tried to dig her out of the rubble himself. She was fine. Just pushed the bomb off her and went on her merry way.)

So basically, even though Superman is... well, Superman, a kick in the balls from Wonder Woman, I'm sure he could feel.

You can think of whatever scenario you want for her to be that upset. Hope you lol!

Spill


So umm... When I don't know how to do something in Photoshop, I do it in After Effects Drawn and colored in Photoshop. Imported as a comp into AE, added some effects and lights, trimmed the comp length to 1 frame, then exported as tiff sequence. Brought back into Photoshop for some finishing touches.
I'm trained as a time-based artist so I'm going to use that as my excuse.

Tried a lot of new stuff with this piece so it was good finding out new things. I look at other people's art then if there's something that looks really cool that I find applicable to something I'm working on, I try to figure out how to achieve the look myself.

So subject tilted, have the nice light halo effect, and if you zoomed in really close you could see the lines are shades of the color of that area (kind of like how Spongebob's lines around his face are not just black lines--they're colored to match him). Obscured the lights in the back, added a handful of lights in AE, added that dark blur thing around the edges. I think that really made it actually. Originally I thought the piece was finished without it, but for whatever reason I added it and it looks so much better.
Above is just a small WIP image. Nothing fancy.
I'm happy with how this turned out :) I think I'm improving.

Oh so this piece is titled Spill after the song by Showoff. It's kinda the theme song of my life at the moment.

This is how I feel about choo:
I've suffered everything. You think you feel the same. If you ever want to be with me then think again.
I don't care if you need me. I've questioned everything.
Let me tell you what I say:
Honey, I know it all, still you wonder if I stand or if I fall.
Honey, I. Won't. Take. The. Spill.

Uranus+Neptune

Trying to see how much I can say without showing full figures. I think this one says a lot for Sailor Moon fans.
Illustrator + Photoshop
Hope you enjoy :)

Chibi Ryoko!! Yay!


Chibi Ryoko! My favorite Tenchi character. Put the final version + basic color png in case you peeps are grabbing images cause pngs can be nice with their transparencies and all.
Ryoko is the kind of girl I like in media. She, like Tifa (who I also like), and Ken M (Zone of the Enders) is not just a hot chick with nice tits. She's strong, strong willed, independent, and pretty. Yes, her boobs are great, but she's more than that. She's the total package--brains, beauty, and quite a personality.

The Fight

While studying animation and video I learned that the foreground was supposed to be darkest, and things get lighter as you go back in storyboard. This is how you delineate foreground, middle ground and background. Seemed to work here though.
You can use your imagination as to the story behind this.

Yoko

Gurren Lagann's Yoko looking cute and feverish on some sheets.
Gainax is great. Though admittedly I've not seen everything they've backed, what I have seen I've really enjoyed. Neon Genesis (the original version) has been my favorite anime since I was in middle school.
Anyway, yeah, so same bathing suit kinda top, but in a more underwear form, with matching panties!

Super Sailor Venus


Mina! Looking cute as usual.
Mina is one of those people who's prettier than she gives herself credit for. Once she's transformed she gets more self confidence. It's nice to see her become more comfortable with herself throughout the series as well (like Lita).
Here's the original sketch I did:
