5 Comic Ladies I Like Reading: Terra

Oooh, tis the last day of August so I may as well post SOMETHING, and that something is this,

A countdown of my 5 New 52 favourite ladies, I made a haphazard attempt to do my top 10 favourite comic ladies of all time months and months ago and only managed the first entry with Power Girl who may or may not be in this list. 

Moving on, our first favourite Lady of the new 52 is... 


Terra! (yay!)

Now, as a child I'd never heard of the Geokinetic-Teen Wonder that was Terra until I began watching Teen Titan on Cartoon Network where she looked like...


And I LOVED her! But of course she turned evil and then got turned into stone and was never heard from again which, when I began to actually read comics a couple of years back and discovered a similar thing had occurred to her comic counter part I was a little heart-broken, not because she was no longer in universe, but that she's been created solely for the purpose of betraying the Titans and was such a waste of a character.

Then I began to read the Power Girl books and a new Terra showed up looking like...
this:

Some subterranian ambassador to Earth, who had the same abilities but was not evil and decided she would be Power Girl's side-kick (for whatever reason) and I never really took to her, she wasn't as blonde or badass as the Terra I'd known as a kid.

Then came the reboot, with a new set of Teen Titans with their own spin-off; Ravagers.
Where the original Terra showed up looking like this:


Which is ther version I have drawn above, I have high hopes for her this time around!
If they can shove Lois Lane out of the way in favour of Superman pairing up with Wonder Woman then they can make Terra not evil.

Not evil and ass kicking!

Just a doodle



Because I'm flicking though my doodle folder and some of them have colour

Graphic Design Piece

So for whatever reason I had not yet uploaded his stuff on here, which is weird because I usually
upload my final pieces from college, or I did that one time last year.

So after re-reading the narrative portion of my final piece, I decided it was a load of poop.
So you can look at the pictures, yay.


This was the inner title in the booky-wook I made
and interiors...



SO basically, it follows the character of the Hunter Daughter, whose job is to clear the Dark Wood of any ghouls and goblins that may decide to move in.

It's odd in that i don't 100% hate it, it's all mixed media, the tree's were all done in water colour pencils and scanned in for placing, and all the characters were drawn traditionally and digitally coloured and lastly all the floors, rocks and the fire in the third panel were digitally done, though I have since forgotten how to shade entirely.


Bonus; individual pages that in theory you can click on and enlarge to get a good gander at:

Photo Finish


Photo Finish is best Pony.

I mean she was good on the show but then I saw this:

And now I love her even more! Vhy is she so good!??!?

Also, she's getting her own blind-bag minifigure, which are hella hard to find here in the UK and I nearly managed to get one on eBay and then BAM! As the bidding rolls to a finish I COULDN'T BID!
Because I was playing Bingo and they block your coverage!

Heart Broken.





Picture perfect ponayyyyy, picture perfect pony, pony, pony, pony.

Oh and by the way, I got into uni, but Photo Finish is more important.

Cocktail Girls; Revisited

Hey! Remember those Cocktail Girls I drew like months ago?
No? Well click here, here or here to remind yourselves. Forgetful fillies!

Well anyway moving on, I quite clearly abandoned the series, why? One cannot remember but I was flicking through my rather extensive sketches folder and found...

COCKTAIL GIRL NUMBER 4!


I am pretty sure she is a Clockwork Orange, which I cannot for the life of me remember the recipe for so...
I'm going to guess! Yay!

25ml of Vodka (a good foundation for any cocktail)
then...
25ml of Malibu
OR
25ml of Archer's Peachy Stuff (I prefer this because its nice and smells nice)
then you may top up your glass with fizzy orange and ice.

Delicious, but not many people buy them

Wonder Woman

I love Wonder Woman, she's no Black Canary but I like what she stands for and I can't grasp as to why, of the 'trinity' she alone seems to be less popular, you would think that a hot battle-goddess whom hails from an island populated solely by other hot battle-goddesses, fighting mythical creatures whilst scantily clad would appeal to most readers but hey. Whatever.


I've given her a teeny bit of a redesign as I believe pants are a tad more practical for fighting monsters than knickers. I also thought this looked hella good when I was drawing it last night at 2am but my woken up eyes see it differently.





Really need to start doing more traditional work, also BONUS SKETCHES!
Really just me trying out different costumes/hair/doodling

Brony

THere are few things in this world that are as awesome as My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic.

And of course I had to make my own pony, or I would just die:


The pony version of me's name is Inkwell.

Motherchuffing, Inkwell.

And here I have magical wings like Rarity gets that one time so I can fly arounf with:


Lauren's Cinnamon Flare, who can be found here.

And;


Sarah's Serotonin, who does not have a website but doeas have awesome science goggles.

Grr and also Argh

So, like, I've been angry quite a lot lately, which is weird because I used to just bounce between depressed and boredom like a space hopper but I've replaced in with anger and being content which is probably just as bad.

I think it's hard to draw an angry image, especially digitally because the amount of refinement that goes in so any anger that goes into a piece is eventually worked out as you calm down whilst working on it. So yeah, ranting.
