Yeahp, these 2003-vintage illos featured line art by me and color art by my bud Ryan Kinnaird; alas, the images were none too legible when playing SSX3 on a CRT TV via the PS2, but what the heck.

Dang, that would've been great to see!
I had a lot of fun with Cyborg’s “Choose your form” 2 page spread and surprisingly DC only had me change one of Cyborgs in that scene. I’d originally included the Cyborg from the Elseworlds story TITANS: SCISSORS, PAPER, STONE by @adamwarren.bsky.social
Find it and read it. It’s super fun!

Damn, really sorry to hear that; I'm very glad I got to work with John on the EMPOWERED: ANIMAL STYLE one-shot lo these many years ago. IMHO, best mecha artist in US comics (while being similarly skilled with character work, I hasten to add) and always an erudite delight to talk to.

2012 con sketch of Emp from my "sexy superhero comedy" series EMPOWERED cosplaying as DC's Mary Marvel (not that she would feel that her own obnoxiously revealing costume would be any improvement, of course).

From me ol’ Pay-tree-on five years ago, and very early on in my tests of Clip Studio Paint, a sketch of Emp from EMPOWERED recreating an unusual Bettie Page photo along with one of very few times I’ve ever drawn a PERSONA character (I think).

A 2023 HARLEY QUINN variant cover (with sweet colors by Alejandro Sanchez) in which I made the bold but, alas, completely unsuccessful decision to over-render the hell outta HQ's classic costume in the inks. (Still worth a try, though, if only to rule out the approach for future use.)

Here's a 2012 con sketch featuring the cast of my "sexy superhero comedy" series EMPOWERED as characters from ALICE IN WONDERLAND, drawn with 5B 2mm pencil leads on linen-finish cardstock (hence the faint fabric pattern on the shading).

From me Pay-tree-on, a quick Clip studio Paint sketch of EMPOWERED’s Emp reimagined as some sort of Drow sorceress (with bonus eyeglasses!); as the white squiggles over her costume (intended to invoke webs) might hint, I have little patience for depicting complex patterns on fantasy outfits.

1996 cover art for my lone doujinshi, a collection of commissions and B&W artwork put together by a generous friend of mine savvy in the ways of 90s-era Comiket; believe me, I could NEVER have pulled this off myself. Line art by me, marker-based colors by my buddy Joe Rosas.

2006 commission of Roxy from GEN13 (aka "Freefall," hence the airborne motif), featuring plenty o' photoreferenced leather; for good or ill, this was about as close as I'd ever get to actual life drawing until 2017 or so.

Pretty decent 2019 sketch set of X-MEN's Magik based on cosplay photoreference, drawn in Procreate using the Medium Hard Airbrush (IIRC) tool I preferred back then. (Still pisses me off that Procreate's lettering tools are easier to use than those of Clip Studio Paint, though.)
