Year One Original Cover Creations

[melike]

Ok..heres the first official OCC. Imagine that in the Year One universe there were comics of the characters. This is one such comic..

Rilynil requested the below - i have to say this is my new favourite thing ive done - looks fantastic in person. I hate my scanner - it never does the piece justice.

Anyway..

The first appearance of the Blob in Year One continuity!

Very cool!!! Poor Jean is going to be sick!! LOL! :laugh:

[rilynil]

Love it, love it, LOVE IT! I came up with the basic idea and Blob's and Wolverine's dialogue, but Mike's magic turned it into so much more than I had imagined. The X-Kids' expressions are priceless! And I love Storm and Kitty's comments. This is going in a place of honor at my house! LOVE IT!

Meh..heres a colour version.
I have my new prsimacolour markers and i was epxerimening on some arches waterpaper and they came out beautifully. So anyway, i went to get some more arches but of course its very very pricey so i got the next barnd donw in quality thinking it cant be that bad..

BUt yeah..with the arches the marker just dissolves into it, it blends beautifully..with this paper not so much.

Oh well..here it is anyway (i traced it - donmt worry Neil, its still in b+w)

Hey, that's looks sharp, Mike! It looks great in color, too. I love it! :)

[melike]

but see on the other paper th ecolours bled more so there were no obvious marks like on beast or the blob. I blame the materials dammit.

Anyway its a freebie..
