A very early preview of my fanart for this week.

Image

I used reference pics for a more dynamic look, stylistically and for shadows. Very much inspired by Mico's work, I love his art.

I'm spilling beans a little early here, but I have been working on a Unity #1 sketch cover for fellow board member & HARD Cat extraordinaire hawkeyeps. I am going to submit it next friday for #FaF once I get a proper scan done - but in the meantime, here is a quick photo of my pencil drawing of Livewire [with a few quick n' sloppy PicFX filters added for colour].

If it isn't obvious, I was going for a tribute nod to the original VH1 XO #21 cover with Randy getting control of the armor;

Posted up my Livewire sketch cover today - nothing really new to see for you guys, but it's a proper scan of the full cover - and I couldn't help but add some slight filtering in photoshop to make it sepia toned...

Hey - if anybody sees this post before 5:30pm & uses facebook - check out Valiant's official Facebook page. They are picking this weeks winner as the entry with the most 'likes' on the individual submission [if you like the overall post, it doesn't count toward a specific entry].

Marrowman, JKingman & I have all entered - there may be others from here as well that I don't know by name.

I'll send good vibes. Facebook being the devil and all, you know, so I can't actually "like" anything there.
