Aw, thanks Vanish!

I love seeing your photoshopped things, too. You should do more and post them in these threads. I'm trying to be really obnoxious about DMAX in order to try and get them going again. I think people get bored of them, but I want them to start up again!

LOL I don't think my photoshopping counts as an art! Its like THIEVERY.

I love these threads; its amazing how these little pictures with names on the side of the screen actually have people behind them with a helluva lot of talent.

The first generation of X-Men fighting the last. I like these fighting pictures.
I am no fan of the original X-men as a team, for reasons I have outlined here (http://tapwater86.deviantart.com/art/My-Version-of-the-First-X-Men-88319309). The short version is I like diversity, which the first five lack. So I drew them getting their butts kicked by the Young and/or New X men, who are all about as different as you can get.
Angel VS Anole
Iceman VS Dust
Marvel Girl VS Hellion
Beast VS Gentle
Cyclops VS Surge

Those are very good, Xavier's Misprint. They should let you draw a short story along with Affinity.

Oh yes, definitely Misprint, that's quite remarkable. Keep up the good work! I like yours as well, tapwater!

That's awesome! I don't much like the originals as a team either, and I could believe your match-ups could go to the new kids most of the time. Keep up the good work.

I love love LOVE how excited Scott looks to be getting a scalp massage from Emma!

Emma on the other hand, doesn't look too pleased to be performing such a menial task. Oh well... she'll probably get used to it.

Psylocke just looks annoyed at the two of them... or maybe jealous and thinking to herself "how come SHE gets to rub Scott's dome??!!"

Great job!

LOL, Psylocke is actually just glaring at Pixie. Meanwhile Northstar is gazing at Iceman with affection, and Pixie is just like OMG GROUP PIC I WANT IN! SOMEONE BETTER TAG ME ON FACEBOOK, but what she forgets is that none of the other X-Men have even accepted her friend request.

Anole, Pixie, X-23 and the other camwhores had to jump in front to block all of the senior X-Men. Oh well!

BUT...I did leave out a few. The science club is absent, and this is pre-generation hope.

omg i love it! great job. psylocke's hair is 2cute.

thank u for leaving out the nerd club.

[Leirus]

Quite so! Wow!!

You have quite a developed personal style!

[yanapryde]

Wonderful image yanapryde, that must have been quite the endeavor!
The actual image is much much bigger so it took a long time.
I would draw around 10 characters at a time on a sheet of paper and then cut them all out and arrange them into different pairings to hopefully convey relationships among them. Like with Psylocke, Dazzler and Northstar. Or Iceman and Cannonball. Rogue, Magneto and Gambit, etc.
So its been something I worked on for a really long time.
Quite so! Wow!!

Thanks so much. That is very kind of you. Been trying to really solidify that for some time now.:smile:

Correct!!!

This piece of artwork is so cool, excellent work yanapryde. You have so much potential it seems, I wish nothing but the best for you in your future art career.
It is so awesome how you formed the X-Men characters into an actual X. Props to you for that. I think what really blew me away was the attention to detail that you put on these many faces. Pixie is so extremely happy to have found a spot so close to Cyclops in the picture. Xavier actually looks like an older gentleman. Cyclops remains in the center with the weight of the mutant struggle on his shoulders, surrounded by peers but truly alone, ever stoic.

Thank you for giving us this piece to bask in your talent. I really did look at this for at least five minutes just to capture it all. I loved it please keep up the great work. Thanks again.

No no thank YOU Jottma. Wow. You have no idea how much I appreciate you noticing the nuances I was trying to convey with placement and expression.
I hate to sound like a pretentious artist but I did put a lot of time into figuring out where to put people and I kept rearranging them and.. there are still a few that I had to place where-ever but for the most part I'm really happy with it.
And again, thanks for spotting those details. Very very much!:biggrin:

Yanapryde, that is awesome. Every piece of art I have seen from you this far has been amazing.

Marvel would do well by hiring you.

I reckon NielsVansEekelen (I haven't read much of your work but based on your posts here you seem like you would be good) and yanapryde should team up and co-create the New Mutants series. It would be awesome.

Can we please get you on covers or pinups or something for Marvel? This is so much better than the catalog of backup people they go to in a pinch and for anthology titles.

It's been a little while since I've been through your site, so forgive me if you answer this there, but have you ever worked on entire issues from original script work? How long does it take you to pencil an entire issue?

I've only done one full script previously, and it never went anywhere (some sample pencil pages for that are in the comics section of my site).
I was hooked up with a pair of writers through a friend, but life happened and they dropped the ball and their story (really fun) never came to fruition.

I'm pretty quick though. Never "timed" myself.
It would be a dream come true to get a chance at a one shot or something for an X-title. Ideally Generation Hope or one of the more 'youth' oriented titles. I'm told I do best with younger characters.

@yannapryde - That is rocking image so far. Love Magik's pose.

Just did this sketch over at my friend's place. The characters were done from memory which is why Jubilee and Logan are slightly off, and I had to redesign Psylocke's costume again. Gave her more of a Head of Security feel to it. :P

was just wondering - since a lot of people have been clamoring for new costumes for uncanny - can we also do a group thing for Uncanny with new re-imagined costumes?

and does Gillen have a twitter account? I'm sorry.

Thanks guys, I appreciate that. I actually came in here to comment on yanapryde's work - who deserves boundless accolades yet I always forget to give them - so this was a nice surprise. :smile:

It was really a labor of (exhausting) love but I think I'm going to attempt a recolor. It wasn't until giving my eyes a rest from it that I realized I was kinda slack on the shading. It could benefit from more dimension... I just sorta kinda hate coloring. A lot.

... but what the hell is wrong with Jubilee, Roguefan?! LOL jk. I definitely agree that the DMAX should have it's own sub-forum.

EDIT: Great pic, seth! The girls look particularly fantastic.

Otherwise I may attempt doing so, myself, with prisma colors.

I think it would be a fantastic idea for the DMAX to get a sub-forum. It would truly give a lot of these threads the chance to shine and get some publicity!

I don't know how open the mods would be to that idea though, considering they just made a Appreciation Thread sub forum.

Don't worry, you draw her fine! It more her dress that I find funny-looking (I look at it and think Shi-ar and bird feathers for some reason, lol). But I apologize, shoulda asked permission first before showing off your work, but it was so cool that I posted before thinking. lol

Light, Yana, both of you have such great crisp lines. Always admire artists who do.

Also - Light, do you have a tablet? I got myself a $30 Wacom, and since then it made coloring a LOT less painful.

In the first draft there were also some energy circles around Havok, but now I will add them over the coloring. Oh and I forgot to say yes... You can use that image as whatever you please.

[pryde15]

Dazzler, can you just draw me pictures of Wolfsbane for a living?
I concur with Lightengale's sentiment, Graconius, I'm envious.

[Dazzler]

Dazzler, your style is so fun and distinctive. I cannot wait to see the New Mutants in color. Srsy, I can't wait. Done yet? :biggrin:

Hey, thanks, Lightengale! I'm glad my light-hearted touch is appreciated by you! It's almost done (having to color it little by little in between real life. ugh)

Dazzler, can you just draw me pictures of Wolfsbane for a living?.
For you, pryde, any ole thing you want! :biggrin:


Graconius, that is a great pic! You do Northstar and Karma so proud! I love it!

Thanks, Snap! (can I call you Snap?) I hope the project will be something interesting and not horrible. LOL Be on the lookout!

Dazzler, that's amazing! I love that Dani is petting Rahne.

Thanks! I figured even though Rahne totally balled Sam out for petting her once, she would totally be okay with Dani doing it.

I left out Joseph, Maggott, Cece Reyes, Thunderbird III, Stacey X, Lifeguard and Slipstream since they really didn't stick around for very long.
I also didn't count switch-shitters Mystique, Lady Mastermind and Sabertooth.

[coveredinbees]

I love your style, Dazzler. Excellent, pretty Shan

Aw, see, I gotta include these! I'm no fan of Joseph, but I like Maggot and the rest. I'm putting them in. hehe

I'm with you on these. They're definitely not X-Men!

You're right, Faded! MAN, this project is going to take FOREVER. lol I hope I can do one daily. Or at least every other day. Wish me luck, please.

Can't believe I forgot Warpath and Chamber! Oops!

[Faded]

LOL DAZZ! I am not pressuring you to produce daily like some hot dog meat compacting machine! You take your time!

I am, however, pressuring Vegetarian Goat to make his triumphant doodley return.

[Dazzler]

Yes, PLEASE. Get on him like white on rice.

Can't believe I forgot Warpath and Chamber! Oops!
I know, me, too. And, as a former Hellion, I feel obligated to keep tabs on Warpath. And I still forgot him. My mission is a failure.

[ohsnapulon5000]

you don't mind if I get up on this project as well? I've actually been wanting to do Maripol (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maripol)-esque snapshot sketches of the X-men hanging out, entitled "Happy Birthday Dazzler" for a while. I could use the free hand exercise.

I would LOVE for you to get in on it! Everyone is invited, if they want. it could be a lot of fun!

I need to read your comics, then, because I love the title! hehe

--Dazz

[Lightengale]

Dazz, the colored NM is fantastic. Love!

I cannot wait to see your next project unfold. I'm particularly looking forward to Dazzler *natch. No pressure for your namesake or anything! :wink: Will you be drawing both Betsy's?

Rice and hot dogs sound good all back together. Nostalgia for the poorer days of cheap, salty food and dial-up Internet at CBR.

I've really enjoyed your drawings, oshnaupulon!

Thanks a bunch, Lightengale! You make me happy, yo.

HAHA! Oh, no! I already feel the pressure and I have a long way to go before I get to Dazzler! yikes!

Will you be drawing both Betsy's?
Good question. I had planned on drawing each character in my favorite version of the character or in their favorite costume. But Psylocke presents a problem. Hmm. I'm partial to British Betsy. Which one do you prefer?

I love both but favor 2.0 just a wee bit more. However, I think that's only because I'm used to her. That and despite Britsy's modeling career I've always thought Asian Betts was prettier... You know, deep stuff like that. :biggrin:

Maybe you can fit Kwannon in as a bonus if you're not thoroughly over it all by the time you're finished. Heh.

hehe Well, I love British betsy for the very deep reason of "I like her Pink outfit." So, there you go. Still, there is no excuse for her helmet hair.

Agreed on both counts. Even as a child I knew there was something wrong with that 'do. Also, slinky pink ensemb > Purple ace bandages.

Do everyone individually that way I can cut/paste my favorite characters into one image. :)

HAHA! Hooray!

I think that's what I'll do, because ultimately it's just supposed to be a drawing/coloring exercise. :)

[countryfan2004]

Aw, I like you around the boards! We're getting some nice people around here now. We need more of you, SunfireX, and Siryn.

Also, I'm super excited for your project, Dazz!

Now we just need Graconius to do this as well.

That is super sweet of you to say. Thank you so much. People like you (and, well, everybody in this thread!) make it worth sticking around!

Also, I'm super excited for your project, Dazz!
Thanks! I'm going to go start on Professor X in a few minutes. What a way to start with a whimper. lol

Now we just need Graconius to do this as well.

YES! let's bug him till he agrees to do it!

All of the X-Characters drawn by Dazzler.

Yes..I am bringing myself into this.

What if there was simply an open-ended X-Jam thread that started with all of the characters in order with the challenge for artists to cruise through as many of them consecutively as possible?

I would consider doing some sort of writing or blogging project to keep up.

I don't know if that would be considered an X-Jam though, if the intent is for poster's to cruise through as many characters as possible. But it sounds like a great idea! I certainly wouldn't mind running it if we figured out the rules and everything.

[Dazzler]

Yeah, you guys. Good idea, krisis! That sounds like a hoot. Let's do it.

pryde, you're the master of this kind of thing. What do you suggest?

--Dazz

[Lightengale]

Would that be something like a "Draw Me An X: Everyone" Thread? Or am I completely off base?

The characters would change every week or so and whomever wanted to draw them would participate?

[pryde15]

I don't know, I'm mulling it over.
Would we want it to work out so that there would be a weekly challenge with a X-Character associated with it? Or would we allow people to work at their own pace?

I also don't know how maintaining a master list would work in this instance, would I just have it categorized by the poster and then link to every character they had drawn? That would take up quite a few posts for sure..

[pryde15]

We'd also need a fun title for it!
I guess we could call it The Draw Me An X: Challenge or something similar.

[Lightengale]

Would that be something like a "Draw Me An X: Everyone" Thread? Or am I completely off base?

The characters would change every week or so and whomever wanted to draw them would participate?

So then yes? It is kinda like I said? lol

I'd think categorizing by character would be easiest, no? (A-Z, order of appearance, etc.) and linking to every shot of them.

[pryde15]

So then yes? It is kinda like I said? lol

I'd think categorizing by character would be easiest, no? (A-Z, order of appearance, etc.) and linking to every shot of them.

Sorry, I didn't see this until after I posted!
I'd probably have to take up the entire first page with posts devoted to the master list.

[Dazzler]

What if everyone works at their own pace, but there's a thread that links to their creations iin the Draw Me an X respective pages? And in the Challenge thread, there's a chronological list they can work from?

Or is that just creating more problems that not?

EDIT: (and LOL @ Lightengale because I just said what you did. Again.)
