Here's mine again...

[atoningunifex]

This was a picture I did of Sam in Photoshop.

[newscott]

Sam's one of my favorites. I wanted to put him in the Quitely togs.

[atoningunifex]

Sam as a member of the XSE. Rather than have the big X-design on his shirt be his traditional yellow or purple, I see it as dark green.

The glasses are a redesign by Sage.

[atoningunifex]

Same picture after some photoshop manipulation.

[greenman]

Later than others, but it is posted. Here's my take on Cannonball. My costume design as well (with help from Newscott)

Very cool design...reminds me of the Revolution outfits.

Thanks Matt, I was talking with Newscott and we both liked his aviator goggles. Which made me give him an overall aviator look including the flight jacket and gloves.

[F!NCH]

These images will only be available a short time before I take them down, so catch them while you can.

Probably my best work yet in this new style.

[bingbangboom]

Very very cool! Nice use of shapes too.

[Vegetarian Goat]

i'd buy it JUST for that cover. seriously.

[atoningunifex]

nothing to see here....move along....

[Tre Styles]

Here's my version of Cannonball, courtesy of MSPaint....blue and gold...natch. ;)

[atoningunifex]

Sam out on the town in his Liefeld days. He's wearing what he calls, in a fit of ninteties humor, his "beer goggles".

[atoningunifex]

A new sketch of Sam and Lila....

http://alyxchance.com/samandlila.JPG

[Vegetarian Goat]

That's really nice. There's not enough Lila art out there...

[LoneWolf21]

I agree, very nice stuff. S'funny I nveer relly warmed up to Lila very much when I first started reading the x-books (around the ime of X-Cutioner's Song and Fatal Attractions), not that she was used much anyway, which may have fueled my eventual bias towards Sam being with Dani, but lately, after reading a lot more stories with her in them, I'm liking her more and more.

Sam looks like he belongs in the Hellfire Club. ;)

Really like your designs. They're awesome! :)

Hey, that's real cute Tagu, nice one!

[TAGU.]

Thanks a lot, LoneWolf :)

[Tenebrae]

This is a sketch of Sam I did at work a couple of days ago and forgot to post.

[hoopoe]

Here's a Sam manip that I did a while back when he had this short-lived costume in Uncanny.

So, uh, where DO you find these guys?

You just want the source material, don't you? :D

[Tenebrae]

Another work doodle.

[LoneWolf21]

Nice one Ten. I like the "blasting off" approach.

[Tenebrae]

Thanks. :)

[The Pizza Man]

Heres Sam in a Bomber Jacket I found on the net.

http://img212.echo.cx/img212/9933/cannonball0015en.jpg

[Tenebrae]

Very nice, Pizza Man, love that X! You have a great style. :)

[The Pizza Man]

Thanks Tenebrae. I used to use lots more line like Lee and Liefield did early 90s but I've let up over the years. Leaves em cleaner looking but still shares a resembalance to what i think of when I think comics.
Yours has a nice clean look with good flow.

[LoneWolf21]

Nice picture, the goatee makes look a little tougher.

[The Pizza Man]

Thanks Lone Wolf, got it from when he first joined the X-Men and they had a big pool party.

Its now in color by the way.

[Doom Hammer]

Here's a Sam manip that I did a while back when he had this short-lived costume in Uncanny.

And they said that the traditional costumes wouldn't work in real life!

Well, you found the solution.

Find someone with a huge package. ;)

[atoningunifex]

I thought ti would be fun to do some pics of some X-men with costumes based on other people's costumes.

Here's Sam in a costume based on Angel's red and white costume.

[Flight]

Cool idea Chad!
How about putting Warren and Alex in Stacy X's costume??

[atoningunifex]

Cool idea Chad!

What? Together?

[Flight]

Well... ok!

[LoneWolf21]

Cute idea. Looks very nice too.

[xakko]

Great sketch, love the costume (though white picks up dirt so well)

keep it up!

Um, someone needs a jockstrap. :rolleyes:

[Joe Zool]

Well... ok!

I second that motion. ;)

[Blackcat]

Here is my version of Sam

[Vicious X Assassin]

Blackcat like your version of Sam, nice picture.

[LoneWolf21]

Very nice Blackcat.

[LoneWolf21]

Pretty cool design for Sam Darkchylde!

Although I do disagree with that comment you made about Doug. ;)

[darkchylde7]

Thanks, and I know people like Cypher...and i did as a person but as a team member i thought he just got in the way. He had a great power though. I'd love to be multi-lingual

[LoneWolf21]

Editted, see below.

[LoneWolf21]

Since nobody could see the pictures, I'm belatedly trying this. Drawn by my dear friend Lezli.

[LoneWolf21]

The second picture. The three girls are Triad/Tripilcate Girl from DC's Legion of Super-Heroes.

[AceOfSpades]

that is sooo cool. Sam and three babes, he's gonna get embarassed:p

[fireball87o]

The second picture. The three girls are Triad/Tripilcate Girl from DC's Legion of Super-Heroes.

i ain't nothing but a hound dog...cryin all the time.

i can see your version of Sam (this image & the one before with the straw hat) singing this song :D

[Madrox84]

Good stuff peeps!

Again i'm loving atoningunifex's stuff, especially the Sam and Lila piece :) There really isn't enough Lila about...

[madrox1977]

Ok, well this is another old pic from '94, but i re-coloured it today on Photoshop, it's a more cartoon-ish version of Cannonball until i can be bothered doing a proper pic......

[Tre Styles]

http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b9/TreStyles1/CannonballSketch.jpg

Just an interpretation of Sam. I'll color it soon enough.

[AnkaleRa]

Looks pretty sweet so far, Tre! I'm anxious to see the finished product! :D

[caney]

Great stuff Tre! Sam's got an awesomely cool look going on there.

my version of an older Sam... used Corel draw

[wilsonRfrost]

here is a drawing of mine from a few months back.

[cowboyfunk]

Here's one I did of Sam in a bomber jacket and one of those old timey pilot caps.

(Pardon my ignorance, but how do I post images directly onto the page as opposed to as an attachment?)

[Affinity]

LOL I love his kicks.

You'll need to find an image hoster (ImageShack, Photobucket) and then copy and paste the URL they give you (after you upload) into your post. I think ImageShack doesn't work with CBR, so go with Photobucket!

[AnkaleRa]

I love the style cowboyfunk! It works well with Sam.

[cowboyfunk]

Thanks guys...I'm glad you like it. And I'll definitely check out Photobucket.

[cowboyfunk]

...not that anyone cares, but I just found this sight with a lot of interesting old pilot hats. These just scream Cannonball to me.

Well Finally got around to drawing Sam properly.........

Just realised that left arm (his right) looks a bit dodgy

One I did for an X-Jam before. He looks a bit squarish.
