Legion Crowd

I'd gone a bit of time without drawing, so I decided to do a big group shot of the Legion of Super-Heroes, something I could add to on a day-to-day basis. Here is my progress from a 7-day run last week, Sunday through Saturday:

Gas Girl and Ferro Lad are drawn with outlines inked.
Sketched in are Polar Boy, Lamprey, Shrinking Violet and Blok.

More ink outlines, with Lightning Lass added to the left of Blok.

Everyone is outlined in ink so far, including the additions of
Invisible Kid II and Sun Boy in the upper left. More to come...

Lesser-Known Heroes

 I spent the last 2 days scribbling up these Substitute Heroes and other Legion characters.

From left to right:

• Antennae Boy (receives radio/other signals from all across the time stream), a latter-day member of the Legion of Substitute Heroes.
• Infectious Lass (can make people sick), same.
• Gas Girl (can transform her body into any kind of gas or vapor), of the Heroes of Lallor.
• Chlorophyll Kid (rapid plant growth), a founding member of the Subs.
• Ron-Karr (can flatten his body to wafer-thin), a Legion reject who joined the Legion of Super-Villains.

In my 'preferred' version of the Legion: Chlorophyll Kid and Polar Boy (not pictured) join the main team after a little training at the Legion Academy. Also, Gas Girl (who renames herself Vapor Lass) joins the Legion after leaving Lallor to get away from an unrequited crush on Duplicate Boy (while Shrinking Violet, also not pictured, stays behind for awhile). Ron-Karr reforms and joins the Subs after acquiring a camoflage suit, and becomes a valuable member of the Espionage Squad.

Sometimes this is my preferred method of drawing. I Scribble away randomly, and then refine it into something interesting (to me).

Omega Rematch

The Legion vs. Omega, a one-and-done villain from the early 80's, and a very cool story. It took the whole team, and as you can see from the way he handles Ultra Boy and Superboy, he is one tough customer.

 

Small Robot

I drew this guy in my journal. Just a simple rolling robot with extendable arms.

Corner Snowman

I drew a calendar for the remainder of January and all of February. And for the first time in a long time I drew something on some of the empty space:

Freehand Prismacolor pencils and Pigma Micron pens.

Lizard-ish

I drew a lizard-like monster, based on something from a weird dream a few nights ago, probably influenced by the horror/sci-fi collection of stories by Robert Silverberg ("Monsters and Things", his stories from the 1950's)that I recently read over the last month or so.

As always, it's drawn in pencil, inked with Pigma Micron pens, and colored with Prismacolor pencils and Sharpies.

Legion HQ

Four more members of the Legion of Super-Heroes, hanging out at their headquarters, going over mission specs. Drawn over the last week or so as I played online games.

Left to right: Saturn Girl, Invisible Kid II, Braniac 5 (rear), and Phantom Girl.
