Thanks dude! You're bang on with the characters I chose for the H.A.R.D.Cats - glad it was obvious. I wasn't sure if Gunslinger was obvious enough... And again, I maintain that it isn't all that good, but i had fun with the drawing [and I am happy with parts of it - particularly the poses & expressions of the 'Purrbinger' Renegades.hawkeyeps wrote: Josh...that is fantastic!
The way you captured the look of the characters with cats! I love it! I see Hammerhead, Gunslinger and Shakespeare looming over the defeated Purrbingers...AMAZING!
You gotta post this on Valiant's FB page, that would make a great cover!
At the very least it should be printed in the letters page
Would it be overkill if I posted it to Valiant's FB page after it got a good run on Twitter already?

Re: Fan Art Fridays
Something I finally finished up tonight. First thing I've ever scanned in and colored in Photoshop. Started it back in February but just haven't had a lot of time to fire up Photoshop CS (yes, that old) on my old computer.
I might enter it tomorrow depending on what the prize is and if there's any theme/criteria for tomorrow's.

Re: Fan Art Fridays
Here's a sneak peek at what I'm working on for next week.
I started early and had an "Art Spurt" it's like when a writer writes 40 pages of pure genius, but instead, art.
"Psycho Bloodshot" or "Bloodshot and the is HARD Corps."

Re: Fan Art Fridays
Nice work this week, everyone!
Marrow, that Bloodshot entry you've got lined up for this week is tops
Dangit, we gotta get missjay to come back & post around here again, I loved her Valiant Popsicles pic. entry ( can someone else grab it and throw it up here?)
I was really pleasantly surprised that the cool cats at Valiant used my H.A.R.D. Cats piece to advertise #fanartfriday on their Facebook page this week! Got a whack of likes - if any of those were from some of you fine ValiantFan folks, I thank you kindly! (I saw that hawkeyeps, MarkRose, & pixierosa 'liked' it, and SonicDan shared the link - thanks a bunch, you guys!!)
