[Vegetarian Goat]

Chad- you continue to shock and amaze. Thanks for the new desktop!

[The Conquering Hero]

... or do you have to belong to a club or a group?

I'ld love to contribute to these posts. Especially this one, since I've always had a thing for Illyana.

[atoningunifex]

Contribute away, Conquering Hero. The Draw Me an X threads are open to everyone.

[The Conquering Hero]

:D Thanks for the invite atoningunifex.

Red King: Nice Photoshop work.

I've included a colored pencil sketch with some photoshop work.

[Joe Zool]

That's awesome, Conquering Hero!

[artemisboy]

Here's my drawing of Illyana.

- Peter

[Tenebrae]

On-the-phone doodle. I really need to sit down and draw something properly at some point. :o

[Joe Zool]

If that's "on-the-phone" then I'd like to see what you do when you're focused. :)

[mattbib]

Here's a little sketch I'd been working on recently.

[atoningunifex]

Coolness, bib. Now what would it take to convince you to finish it in the style of the stuff you're posting in the kids thread? :)

[mattbib]

Now what would it take to convince you to finish it in the style of the stuff you're posting in the kids thread? :)A time machine? God, I hate doing backgrounds. I'd rather do it in the graphic style I'd adopted. Of course I still need Photoshop for that...

[atoningunifex]

A time machine? God, I hate doing backgrounds. I'd rather do it in the graphic style I'd adopted. Of course I still need Photoshop for that...

I love your graphic style. I also love that old school style. You've scanned it so you can do the graphic style later when you get a copy of photoshop. So finish it in the old style.

Please? Pretty please?

[The Fury]

Alright people. Here my version (slightly changed) of Magik's Xavier designed costume from many year ago. Enjoy. :)

[Jack Flash]

nice job Fury! I like your costume design. She looks appropriately melancholy!

[The Fury]

nice job Fury! I like your costume design. She looks appropriately melancholy!
Melancholy? *Goes to Dictionary.com* Hmm, Really? OK then.

It took me a while to do this one, it went through a lot of editting. I mean I used MS Paint to draw the cape.

[LoneWolf21]

Looks real nice Fury. I prefer the purple color scheme you used to the red redesign as seen in the books (I say redesign, because when she first wore the costume, the red parts of it were white)

[Anon_me]

My quick and dirty take on Magik...if she didn't deage and die...and ended up joining an X-team :p

http://members.shaw.ca/lsyw/Fan/Magik_01.jpg

[Tenebrae]

Love the portal effect on that one, anon. Excellent costume design too. :)

[AceOfSpades]

Definitly loving the Magik.. all of them.. I think the Darkchylde one is awesome though, u really get a feeling of "evil" :evilsmile

[Tenebrae]

Doodle of Illyana I did at work today. I didn't like it much but my other half loved it so... here it is.

[Jack Flash]

Tenny! I love the armor arm and her P'od expression! Great job!

[Tenebrae]

Tenny! I love the armor arm and her P'od expression! Great job!

Thanks, mate! :D

[Vegetarian Goat]

That's REALLY cool, Gordy! I love the hair! :D nice job

[Tenebrae]

That's REALLY cool, Gordy! I love the hair! :D nice job

Wow, thanks Dan! :D

[The Mirrorball Man]

I always liked that creepy little Russian. Here's my tribute to Magik:

[The Fury]

Nice, (yet slightly creepy) Mirrorball.

And Child, also great again.

[Vegetarian Goat]

WOW! Those are both fantastic! Where did you guys come from?!?!? :D

[The Mirrorball Man]

Thanks for the nice words! :)

[Fede]

I always liked that creepy little Russian. Here's my tribute to Magik:

:eek: !! that's great!! almost scary lol

[Jack Flash]

[RED KING]

Just did this one today...

http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/flyinryan/x-friends.jpg

[RED KING]

What If...? Magik joined the Hellfire Club?

http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/flyinryan/magik3web.jpg

[RED KING]

WHat would an official... 616... return be like? Perhapse something like this. With Illyanna as proficiant in white magic as black...

Oy Vey! Show that picture to Claremont or another writer and I'm sure they will bring "Snowflake" back

[fishtaco]

:eek: :eek: :eek:

whoa!! How do you do that?????? That's not just pencils and colors.

[RED KING]

Thanks for the commets!

Now to answer the question...
It's done with Adobe Photoshop.
Scan (or downlaod) a pic or 2 and you can color, paste, all sorts of things.

the set of 3 started out as a Josie & the Pussycats promo image.from there, I took parts from... seven other pics aswell.
Plenty more on my site.

:(
All these picks makes me miss her even more.... :(

AMAZING pics here!!

[Affinity]

It's kind of ironic how this is the one death and resurrection that they could pull off quite believably, on account of Illyana's ties to Limbo and magic and sorcery and all that.

But noooo...

[Marty4Magik]

But noooo...
There is NO ONE CHARACTER that can be brought back WITHOUT messing with past stories, so damn easy as Illyana.

[Affinity]

I thought you were yelling at me there for a second, lol.

[Marty4Magik]

I thought you were yelling at me there for a second, lol.
Lol, nah, just making it more clear, in case a Marvel-editor reads this. :p

[xakko]

wouldn't mind seeing the original back...

http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e178/xakko/pictures/illyanacopy.jpg

[Pro]

The Cabal was an idea i had floating around in my head. A team of mystically endowed characters protecting Limbo from intrusions. Since Limbo is connected to all time, alternative and past/present it would offer near limitless storymaterial. Add to that their assistance to Dr.Strange as protectors of earth 616 against extradimensional invasions and Dark Angel's war against Mystech and you could fill an ongoing series. The team consists of Magic (either Amanda or at a later time Illyana), Kylun of the original Excalibur, Dark Angel and Hannibal King, vampire detective. A fifth character would be added later to complete the 5 points of a pentagram.

Not bad art. How about Jennifer Kale?

[Pro]

I was thinking either Gargoyle from the old defenders or Dani Moonstar who after losing her powers instead focusses on learning mystic arts.

Jennifer Kale could be interesting too though.
Uniform would have to change though, shows way too little skin ;P

But noooo...

with the upcoming new x-men arcs there's a chance :)

[AceOfSpades]

Pro, If only I could steal a little bit of your skill......:p

I wish I could sketch like you

Maybe give her a bit of the family heritage, and have her control hellfire. Maybe a costume out of it.

[Matthew K.]

i made this piece made from one of audrey kawasaki's painted wood pieces as a base:

here's the original work...reminded me of Magik so much I had to use it:

[madrox1977]

Ok Well here is my version of Magik, obviously the Exiles version (i liked even if she was psycho)

http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u285/mikeybumchin/New%20Artwork/Illyana3.jpg

[Matthew K.]

Cool. Are we going to get to see a landscape view of all the characters in the grasslands (collage style)?

[madrox1977]

You know what ive never thought of that but might just have to try it

[Pro]

Nice pose Madrox, keep up the good work, you're getting better with each drawing.

[madrox1977]

cheers Pro, if only i could work out how to do a collage style pic

[Magneto Rocks]

Very cool drawing there, Madrox. Love the pose and expression particularly.

[Harlock]

I always astounded by the level of whimsy, malice, fun and well talent each and everyone always displays in these DMX threads. Haven't posted in a while, but wanted to say thanks.

[atoningunifex]

I was looking at some Bill Sienkiewicz art online yesterday and it inspired me to do a very quick (20 minute or so) sketch of Magik in a faux-Sienkiewicz style. I think it looks like I drew a Magik pic and Sienkiewicz came over to my house and doodled on it while telling me how weird her butt looks.

http://alyxchance.com/magikinsienkiewiczstyle.JPG

[AnkaleRa]

She's pretty! :D Excellent work on Ms. Illyana! And her butt is cute.

[Affinity]

Gorgeous! I love the eyes, they're really dark. LOL at your comment; I want Bill to come over MY house and doodle on my drawings!

[wshaunpennington]

I've just started digitally coloring art (this is my third attempt.) The drawing was used for an old "X-Jam", and the coloring was added yesterday. Advice? Opinions?
