@SimonFraser Ahhhh... right. So not actually colouring from scratch with those tools then? Sorry- I misunderstood what you'd said in the first place and it turns out that I know what I'm doing after all. Hooray!
Sadistic she-warrior with godlike super-powers, blonde hair, a penchant for turning into a blue skull, and an active interest in protecting the Jungle from unlikely scallywags? How about sadistic ex-MI6 she-warrior with hi-tech stealth/hologram gear that projects a skull, interested in protecting the urban "jungle" of Kuala Lumpur against scallywags? Thanks for keeping these going, Si. Appreciated.
I've spent the first week trying to work out how to have Fantomah vs Zomax and give it a strong environmental message. Finally, inspiration hit, and here is the result:
I had no idea what to do for this one... this came out after playing with photoshop for 2-3 hours. So here's my Fantomah... the African Goddess with her ghost-spirit-blue-whatever tiger! (oh, and about the blood... come on! a little blood is always cool!!)
@simon..lovely composition and lighting. @dlauer..nice inks. @Paul…Sweet! @hey apathy…bold lines as usual. @dancing…nice colours. @evilgeorge…nice approach and love her design and lifework.
@evilgeorge: maybe a little blood is cool, but I drew the line (no pun intended) at blood dripping from Zomax's severed head in my entry. The fill gradient with red pointing to Zomax's head would have to represent it.
Still, your entry shows what you can come up with simply by having a play around with Photoshop. Maybe I'll try something like that with a challenge. Wonder what Daddy Si has lined up for us next?
Urgh...I think I've been outclassed again. Damn you all and your talent.
Was thinking about doing Fantomah as a pin up nose art girl, like you used to see on WWII bombers/fighters, but I need more practice in GIMP before I'm ready to do something that ambitious. My efforts at present are just not cutting the mustard.
Again, good work, ye scoundrels, I shall try again when the next R/R is up.
Great character selection this time around! Unfortunately, I don’t have time to play this month as I am attempting the “30 Characters in 30 Days” challenge. Fantastic job all around with special shout outs to SimonFraser, Paul Sizer (grat holo-skull concept), HEY APATHY! And evilgeorge (beautiful piece!)
