Hello Legion World!

Many of you know that I am a big fan of MLLASH's very creative writing and fandango artwork. It seems like I've always done fan art for the various creations he and others have come up with, such as Matter Eater Lad: The Series, Trash Lass, Uncanny Excellents, etc.

Well, it is Lash's childhood creation, Starsearchers, which has inspired me to be more than just a sketch lad, and plunge into the world of sequential comic art.

The intention is for Lash to write the stories and for me to illustrate and letter them. We will start off by posting here at Legion World and at the CBR Artist & Writers Showcase message board. We will also look into other web comic venues.

Right now, I will post some of my sketches. Sometimes I give my spin on what the character could look like. Sometimes I go with what Lash designed. Soon, we will present a sneak preview of what to expect for the Starsearchers, then we will begin telling the tales.

I'm very excited to work on this project. I think it will be a LOT of fun. I'm lucky Lash is into it.

PLEASE provide feedback of all sorts! Lash has offered to answer any questions that come up.

Enjoy!

9 Lil Aliens

Obviously, my take on Lash's group shot.

Omarr and his wicked queen...

Their outfits are based on Aztek Gods with starfield fabrics, giving them, I think, a very Cockrum-esque look.

Here's one more character sketch. I asked Lash if it'd be okay if Vamp was a redhead who wore red. He said yes!

That *is* indeed K'zle, Shady. I think he looks awesome! We can thank Dean for suggesting he be featured in the upcoming short-story starring these guys:

Also featuring Krysalis, Seven and Johnny Comet. I fell in love with Dean's incredibly creative visuals for Krys and Seven, SO much better than anything I ever envisioned!

WOW, Dean-- first time I've seen your group shot of the young Starsearchers! BREATHTAKING to behold! I got a headrush looking at the image, that's how excited I am!!!!

I have a feeling K'zle will become a fan favorite! I suppose he was trying to look intimidating for the portraits, but most of the time I'm sure he'll have a sweeter face, more like the way Lash draws him.

I can't wait to finish the preview story and begin the actual series!

Thanks for the feedback on these sneak peek images!

(The group shot of the 9 Lil Aliens was a surprise for Lash. [Smile] )

You are ever the sweet heart, Dean!
Draw darlin' K'zle any way you want. You're right, he's a teen on a team and they like looking fierce!

I love that you've used so many of my favorites of LASH's creations and I ALWAYS enjoy your wonderful productions.

Here's an image of SEVEN I did based solely on Dean's face-shot he sent me awhile back.
