I had to do a slight redesign (this is something that aired on MTV for about .002 seconds with different coloring), but I think you guys should recognize them...

Drake, one of the things I most enjoy about your renditions of the team is that you make each one an individual. I can distinguish Mon from Cos and Lyle from Val without needing the costume. In the current series, they all seem to have the same face with just the hair changed.
You really are much better than what we get in the book on a regular basis, IMO.

Hey Drake, the team shot is nice! I really like the mini computers floating around Querl, and the fact that Tinya is phasing into the poster istelf! Well done.
And the Wildfire/Dawny shot captures so much of their inner torment. It makes me think of when Dawnstar left to search the galaxy for her soulmate, and Drake whispers "Damn" and explodes out of his containment suit, knowing he can't be the man she needs/deserves.
I applaud your artistic ability, all the while cursing my "two left hands". Bravo!

And I hope you are offered a shot at the Legion book and end up proving me right!

Belated praise is due for your latest items. I've rarely seen so adept a group portrait as you've done above, with its even being up-to-the-current-issue on Umbra's look.
As others have said, you've made individual expressions visible and distinctive, even in such a crowded setting, and that's something even Davis, Farmer, and Batista haven't quite managed to the same degree recently. ("Dream Crime" and "Superboy's Legion," the best recent Legion art.)
And the anguish in Dawny's face ... exquisite. I'm not sure of the setting or metaphor for those flames -- the gases swirling above Venus, perhaps?

Would it be the first time a LMBP has gotten book time?
I'd be thrilled to see you get a poster page such as in LSH #100. I love those artists one-shots and yours are smack dab at the top.

Thanks -- the Dawnstar/ Drake pic was part of a whole slew of stuff I drew for the last MTV movie awards (which had a comic book theme). There was a series of promos for the awards that I drew to promote the event and the above panel passed across the screen (among others) in one of the promos.
