Drake, I think that is a very good picture of Dawnstar. I like the Wildfire picture, too, but you can put me down as someone who likes the rich black shown in the book. Also, look again at how Steve drew the wings surrounding the star on Wildfire's chest. They have bit more flair, like the way Cockrum originally designed them. Still, a good drawing!

Thanks Dean. The wings had more flare but some details got lost during the scanning/ coloring phase. I still can't wrap my brain around the rich black though -- the inversion from having the red be the dark parts of the costume to becoming the lighter parts seems unbalanced to me. The greater contrast of red/black from red/orange also serve to highlight his mid-section which is unfortunate since it seems to isolate it like a floating diamond shape, making it look like he's wearing some funky trunks. Making it more grey was my way of trying to counter this.

I love that Kirby Legion. God only knows what that would have been like if it ever really had happened.

Drake, I love that pic of Dawnstar. She looks absolutely stunning there.
And the new costumes for the founders are cool! I like Imra's especially.

Actually, it is Garth, just changed a bit -- for some reason I wanted to give him pointy ears, pale bluish skin and black eyes with white pupils/irises (at least his hair's still orange).
And thanks to you Cobie and Matlock for the nice words

your stuff has a great energy to it -- beautiful characterization too -- you've captured some of the essences of the LSH without making them too young
by the way, i love your sunfire image -- that's how he should be drawn (if he ever appears as a regular anywhere)

So the boots and gloves are steel instead of crystal? I'm cool with that.
