Maybe we could get Loser Lad to color them, if Bill doesn't have the time or the inclination.

I'll save them and take 'em to tinypic and see if I can darken them enough for me to see!

If you click on them, they'll enlarge, Candace. Click a second time and they enlarge even more. I think you'll be able to see 'em then.

Thanks Vee & & Mattropolis & Eryk Davis Ester!
Pov - I'd love if DC took an interest. I'm figuring out a plan for this, but without a time bubble (or a prediction from Dream Girl), I have no idea how far it will get...
Power Boy- Please don't die when looking at my artwork! I'd feel pretty damned guilty (and I'd miss your kind words!)
Candle- Sure, if someone wants to color these in, feel free! I may color them in sometime, but no time soon.

Mr. Alger, You are so talented. You make me sick
Really great stuff. I love Lil' Shrinking Violet!

Nightcrawler- I'd also love to do an old-fashioned "Golden Book" type children's book featuring the Legion...
Quislet, Esq.- So now I'm infectious Lass, huh? Thanks! Li'l Shrinking Violet would be great in a comic book story because she could be at the bottom of each panel having her own separate adventures (like fighting a bug) while the main story is going on...

I'm afraid no matter how big they get, my eyes don't see the lines clearly. sigh That's okay, I'll get them darkened. I had to do that with most of Gina DC's drawings that weren't colored, too.
I hope that Bill saw her chibis work, and Space Cadet's! It's so fun to see such differences in the same subject. That's one of the things that I love so much about art.
If he has an Element Lad, maybe he's like to enter it in the Jan Arrah Museum thread, too. That's a fun monthly theme thread, Bill.

Yes, it's Trips & Mon-el in that drawing.
I'd love to be able to go back in time and ask John Forte, "What the hell were you thinking when you drew the Legion? Were you being funny? Or serious? Were you drinking? Or maybe it was just another job and you didn't even give this stuff a second thought?"

I've been posting these as thumbnails 'cause I didn't want the pages to load to slowly. But since some of the sketches are light, should I post them full-sized to make them easier to see?? Candace, would that help??
Posted by Nightcrawler on :
Thumbnails are the full sized images resized dimensionally (width/height) it doesn't effect the file size (kilobytes or megabytes).
Thumbnails keep the pages from being distorted on the screen and should always be used for larger (width/height) images.
I also don't think full size helps make the pencils show up any better for most people (I can see them fine).
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
Plus full-size images are only one-click away.
Posted by Candle on :
Yes, don't bother saving them bigger. It doesn't help me. I just have to get them darkened. Thanks for the lovely thought, though!
I don't know how to do the 'click' or I would for my pictures if it's needed.
Is there a way that someone with very little understanding of computer jargon can learn how to do it?
Why do pictures need to be small if they're close to the 150 or or under?
I kind of like them bigger on the page for the gallery impression that it gives. (That's the graphic artist in me. Well, the classical artist, too. Sorry.)
It seems that most people don't even come to this category and I don't think that making it more difficult, as in click, enlarge the screen and click again, really is all that inviting. I don't mind much, but I LOVE art and will follow it almost anywhere.

But sometimes a turtle is just a turtle, and I didn't want to read too much into it.
I vaguely remember some myth like this with a turtle, but there's no real meaning behind it here. I was gonna have Brainiac sitting on a rock, but it seemed a bit boring, so it turned into a turtle.
The Hindus have a story about a turtle who swims through space with 4 elephants riding on his back with the flat world riding on their backs. Terry Pratchet borrowed the idea from them for his Disc World multiple series. That world, unlike ours, really IS flat.

Oh no! In all honesty, I'm trying to get a pitch across to DC as well. A holiday special...
That, and I'm trying to type up some short sample scripts to show them my writing.

Oh, Ok. I need to pay more attention to what I'm reading!
Cool! Hope you're able to get your pitch through to DC. It's been so long since I've done comics for their kids line (I drew a bunch of Hanna-Barbara/Cartoon Network comics years ago) that I barely know any editors up there these days. I'm still doing art for DC's merchandising department, but that's in NYC and the kids comics line has moved to California.
A holiday comic would be fun. Is it Legion related? Or is it too soon to tell anything about it?
Posted by Sarcasm Kid on :
Too soon, but the Legion wouldn't have anything to do with it, sadly. I came up with it for a much different reason that wouldn't affect the Legion.

Well, I'm hoping to read your story in a comic someday soon! We should populate DC with Legion fans turned writers & artists. (Hey, it worked for Jim Shooter & Paul Levitz!)

Hey, if Games is finally gonna be released, anything's possible.
Posted by Sarcasm Kid on :
Damn! That's a lot of dead heroes! Can't imagine how you'll work them all (or lots of them, anyway) into one comic (much less a holiday comic!), but I'd love to see it published and be able to read it.

I don't think we came up with anything definite for her. It was thought that she would lead a group of ex-girlfriends out for revenge. Sketch Lad did use her for one of his holo-model contests. And if I remember correctly in one of the pictures he had her commanding clams ala Aquaman.

I guess if you have to be missing a point-of-attachment between limbs and torso, the underarms are the least horrible choice.
I mean, Underarmless Atmos is the lucky one. His brothers No Neck Pete and Crotchless Sam are quite jealous...
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
The disadvantage of lack of armpits is that they are a major release point for pheromones. Fortunately, Atmos makes up for that with the whole creepy "dominating wills" power.

Hey superboymddjr,
Those are some great ideas! There's a bunch of characters I've missed. I'll try to get to them soon.
I drew a Universo a while back, but I never posted it 'cause I want to do a better one.
