Legion World Forums LEGION OUTPOST Bits o' Legionnaire Business Micro Heroes by Candlelight - Byzantine Knights Added 09/13/12

Hey everyone. Candlelight offered to make some micro heroes based off of the pieces from my "Legion Alternity" sketch collection. These are the first two she's made so far of Sumo Lightning Lad.

Here are the original pieces, the first by Ian Dorian and the second by Edwin Huang.





And here they are:



UPDATE: Candle just edited them. What do you guys think?

Tinypics was acting up a little tonight so that I couldn't get them cropped properly.
I used the garths already done by Future as my base micros since I haven't got a clue how to do them from scratch.

The original red and green seemed perfect for the topknot, toe boots and tiny beard.

The second one, from his current outfit, looked like he had a diaper on so that why I picked that one.
I like the sandles and I'm going to try for toes, if I can figure them out.

Oh my! LOL! I'm curious to see where this goes next?!?

That's up to Candle.

The two micros are really cute. The toes threw me off a little bit, but otherwise very cute

Edit:
LOL, just read why the toes, lol, cute idea

Very nice Candle.

Why, thank-you, everyone!


I'll keep working on these and Brin is next, I think.

Just posted the edited version, courtesy of Candle.

Candle... Garth looks great!!

No rush, but when do we get to see some more??

She's working on a couple based on the Sumo Timber Wolf piece Francis Manapul did. Or, so she's told me.

And shown him!
Doubtful little boogger!(I don't know how to spell 'booger'! Dang it!)

I'm sorry, but I couldn't leave Red's toe broken or Blue's feet too short:

I can tell the difference, anyway.

Okay.
Here's a sumo Brin.
I like him quite a bit, especially his bare feet, eyes, sideburns and wild hair/fur.
I might add a different belt buckle, if SK wants it, and the hair still needs something, maybe more form or an outline.
What do you think?
Advice?


The original was a Jo by Future.
And the colors, costume and face/hair were from a con drawing SK's posted here, in a number of places.

The hair definitely looks better, thank you.

Here are the sketches it was based on, the first by Francis Manapul, the second by Tim Smith 3.

I love his nose and mouth with tongue, but it's too cutsey/cartoony, I'm afraid.
rats

I'll fix that when I do the buckle, coloring changes, sandels and hair.
sigh

Here's this Brin, finished, I think.
I finished the hair, added sandles and wolf buckle, removed the cutesy stuff and changed the colors a little.
sigh


From now on, I'll do a set before posting them. It'll take a little longer between postings but I like have more than one at a time for people to see.

Edit: forgot the glove and eyebrow removal before!

Cool. Thank you again.

Only as long as you don't make us wait too long.

Great stuff, looking forward to lots more.

Candle edited the Brin micro.

Okay.
So, I was going to post more than one at a time.
sigh
This is Sumo Dirk:

The original was a Future's Dirk
The drawing (below) is a convention/consignment done for SK by Declan Shalvey.

Here's the micro I started with:

His ears are the same.
lol

I think I'm finished with my version of Sumo Brin.
It's based on a suggestion of Suncat's and SK's for a Red Lantern of Rage for the Legion of Light Museum thread last year.
I came up with a picture of Brin for that and this micro 'look' is loosely based on that idea.
I'd put the other Brin here but I'm having a major reworking problem with it.


Anyway, the Red Wolf:

He started life as one of Future's Jo Nahs.

Here's the Legion of Light entry:

Great stuff, as always, looking forward to more.

Thanks for sharing!

Yes! Brin does fill the bill for the Red Ring.
