Lash is going to go crazy!
I love your photo-manips MEL, especially the Stone Boy one! But Paris Hilton as Drura is my favorite by far: absolutely perfect! Lash will go crazy to himself/Tenzil with Paris/Drura!
Great stuff so far! I'll post some poetry when I get my muse!

Awesome pic, Frog Kid! Your style reminds me of Gene Colon!

*has heart attack and dies, but revives once he realizes that if he dies he'll never be able to look at the bitchen manips and SUBS cover ever again...*
Posted by MLLASH on :
In the ULTIMATE LEGION UNIVERSE, Night Girl is a fun-loving zombie it-grrl who has Daxamite-level strength & endurance in low light or darkness but crumples to a lifeless corpse in bright light or daylight!
I drew a pic that I liked, but the picture of the picture looks kinda glare-y; she's wearing her Mike Grell costume that appeared twice.
Posted by deanlegion on :
Wow, MEL! Your manips are terrific!!! LOVE Paris as Drura!
Lash, I LOVE the idea of Lydda as a zombie!
Frog Kid, I like your cover for the Subs' comic.
I'm still working on my submissions, but I do have a portrait of the team that I did a while ago...

Posted by deanlegion on :
Okay, here's my idea for the Legion of Substitute Heroes... somehow, they find themselves individually pitted against one of the dastardly BAT VILLAINS!!!!!
Posted by deanlegion on :
Leading things off, we have the Subs um, leader, POLAR BOY. Seems he's just had quite a tussle with some henchmen, but now it's time for him to face....DR. FREEZE!!!

Next, STONE BOY against CLAYFACE!

Uh...WOW! Thanks FK! Awesome!

Something sappy! I always imagined that the Subs would be more sympathetic to different points of view than the legionnaires - once they got over being rejected and gained some confidence. .......................
"I guess Brek stayed behind after all," Pete said, looking around.
"Oh, never mind, it's always Our Legion Right or Wrong with him," Drura replied, rolling her eyes. "Chlor, you okay with this?"
"Y-y-yes..." Ral fingered the vines that always seemed to burst from the ground whenever he was nervous. "I guess we did the right thing."
"You guess?" exclaimed Pete. "Of course we did! We can think for ourselves, can't we? We're not the Legion's lackeys. There'll probably be hell to pay for this, though... Dag? Dag? Ah, wouldn't you know..."
"Never mind him, turning to stone is his way of avoiding things," Drura sighed.
"I still can't believe this," she continued. "We get an urgent call to help end a riot, subversive and dangerous elements are storming Earthgov offices - and what do we see when we get there? Kids, younger than us, waving signs and chanting. They weren't even near the gates. And there's the Legion, rounding them up for the SPs. We did do the right thing, refusing to participate in that."
"But what did they mean, shouting "No Deals with Dominators?" What Dominators?" asked Ral.
"Grife! You're more dead to the world than Dag sometimes" Pete snapped at him.
Ulu arrived with two of the young protesters. "I can certainly vouch for these two," he explained. "This is my younger brother, Varn, and his roomate. They're both students at the University."
"We just wanted to tell our side of the story," pleaded Varn. "Alert people to what Wellington is up to. We just wanted to make some speeches."
"Well, we're an audience for lost causes if there ever was one," laughed Pete. "Let's hear it."
"Excusez-moi." The group turned, startled, as Jacques Foccart materialized and approached them. "I saw you withdraw and..."
"Stop right there, Invisible Kid!" Drura interrupted. "Before you start chewing us out...."
"Ah, no. No, I did not follow you for that. It was what the Legion was asked to do today..."
"Asked to do? What you were doing!" Drura glared at him.
"Please, let me continue. We were told that a very volatile situation had developed - but it seemed to me those young people were no threat. When I saw you leave, with those two, I thought I could follow... I, too, have been growing concerned with Dominator interference in Earthgov. If you have information, I, for one, would very much like to hear it."
Jacues spoke to the two students, but his eyes never left Drura.

Haven't had much time lately, so all I've got to bring to the party are these lame Legion of Subs lymerics. I couldn't think of a good one for Polar Boy, so if anyone can come up with anything feel free to post away!
There once was a girl from Kathoon Whose powers were thought a great boon! She could lift up space cars Or bend iron bars, Just don't ask her to do it at noon!
He could turn into stone, and for that alone Our Noble Dag Wentim from Zwen Could have been a great hero Instead of a zero, If he'd remember to turn back again!
Staq Mavlen was called Fire Lad, Because of the power he had. He could spit balls of flame, That was his claim to fame, Which was kind of pathetic and sad.
Chlorophyll Kid tried hard you know, He just wanted to be a hero. But with Ral Benem's luck, He got powers that suck, From a big tub of Miracle-Gro!
Color Kid was the lamest of these, He's the one even Stone Boy would tease. 'Cuz his powers were silly, And he once lost his Willy To a Gender Reversing Disease!

More, more, more! How do you like it? I wanna see more submissions in the Sub-Heroes Collection! I've got a drawing to two to finish and scan in - how about the rest of you? deantitan, your Chlorophyll Kid/Poison Ivy is my fav. I think he sprung a woody little tree from the ground.
Posted by Crulith on :
Sorry this is a little more unfinished than usual, but I've been having some trouble focusing on my art lately. This is something that just kinda came together at lunchtime today, hence the pencils rather than inks.
I'm working on a Night Girl sketch, too, but that's at home. We'll see if I can at least get it inked this week.
Posted by Crulith on :
This one kinda came to me at lunchtime today. I'm not sure where I'm going with it, concept-wise. Either it's a new costume for Infectious Lass, or maybe it's a Medicus-One uniform. Either way, I don't think the little alien is too happy to see her
Oh, and I'm still working on the Night Girl one at home. I may get it posted yet Posted by Nightchangeling on :
Posted by MLLASH on :
Kewl!! I'm loving all the Drura stuff!
Posted by Soy-Monkey Eater Lad on :
I felt bad for leaving Fire Lad out of my manips so here's a drawing of him making s'mores with a quick color job:
And Chlorophyll Kid growing something:

Posted by Princess Crujectra on :
Well, I never did get around to coloring this, but at least I got it scanned. I'm not completely happy with it, but I was trying a new pose that I really hadn't done before, so I guess it's not too bad.
Posted by Princess Crujectra on :
Better late than never, I guess. I finally got around to coloring this. Still not completely happy with it, but I'm dealing with it
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
All of these are great. Darn my own lack of artistic talent.
Posted by Soy-Monkey Eater Lad on :
I love your color scheme Cru! Rokk on!
Posted by minesurfer on :
First off, let me say that I love everybody's contributions to this thread. MEL's photomanips are great, Dean is awesome as usual, Love the limericks (now if we could only get some dirty ones ). FC and Princess I wish I could draw and tell stories as well as you two do.
I had to wait for the Custom Con to go live, but I can finally reveal my contribution to The Subs' Wing:
And for good measure:

Minesurfer, you freaking rule!
Those are awesome! I had no idea that you made them that well-done! I'm blown away. You, my friend, are good!
Ambush Bug look ridiculously awesome! I want one! Posted by minesurfer on :
Stop it you guys, you want me to blush?
Thanks though, I'm glad you liked them.

Wanted to put Lydda here, too.

This is my favorite model from any of the shows, Heather. She doesn't look exactly like the classic Night Girl but, I think she, and her outfit, are a pretty good modern and realistic take on her.
Posted by Candle on :
I think that she goes here. And I love this photo.
Female model from MMaSM, season 2 (they didn't list her name on the photo and the females were ususally pretty unmemorable that year, so I don't recognize her. Posted by Candle on :
Since I don' think that the heroes wear costumes ALL of the time -

Shady, I just came across the above Infectious Lass image and posted it to her Friends of... page on Facebook, with credit to both you and kimberlee69. It's lovely!
Posted by razsolo on :
I am shocked....SHOCKED...! that my favourite Legionnaire ever aka Dream Girl doesn't have her own wing, but she was a Sub for a while, so here is a costume redesign for her..
I am not GREAT at coloring, so you kind of have to imagine that her hair is platinum and her costume is the same metallic sheen that she had during the 80's...
Posted by Candle on :
She's adorable just as she is! Love her!
Posted by Set on :
The short hair is sassy. Have we seen Nura with short hair? If not, we should have!
Posted by razsolo on :
Thanks y'all...I don't believe we have seen Nura with short hair, but I'm surprised; of all the Legion ladies, I would have thought that narcissistic Nura would have been the one most likely to change her look constantly.
I guess she figures you can't improve on perfection... Posted by Sarcasm Kid on :
Here's Comet Queen by Thom Zahler:
And here's Color Kid by Toby Cypress: Posted by razsolo on :
Visi-Lad was a Sub for about 5 minutes, right?
I am gonna work on refining this a little more when I get some time, but the idea was to modernise his look while still keeping the costume recognisably his.
The helmet is an opaque black dome, and the green rings on his head and his torso are holographic projections rather than physically a part of the costume. I think it would look heaps cooler if I'd had access to photoshop so I could make the light rings look more holographic, but I am happy with the general design.. Posted by Candlelight on :
I <3 the costume! But even more, I <3 the drawing of him! It's so dynamic! Posted by razsolo on :
Thanks Candle!
I did do some further mucking around with it but I think I hit the right look with the first try, nothing else I've tried really works as well..
