Not by a Longshot!

I don’t know how Dani could NOT be anyone’s favorite in the initial New Mutants lineup. Rebellious but loyal, tough but sensitive, confident but haunted– she was so kick-ass. Favorite Dani panel? It’s gotta be one of the earlier issues where she tries on a bikini and thinks about how sexy she is. That really threw me for a loop.

It has taken me FOREVER to draw her because not only did I want to do her justice, but I was constantly fighting with myself over the offensive-ness factor of the bow and arrow imagery.

Then I thought, why am I questioning this when I gave the Japanese character a Katana and the black character a semi-automatic firearm? Sometimes the accessory’s coolness factor overrides the derivativeness/ racist-ness of it– haha. The compromise was to draw her with a bow and make the arrows real and not psionic, despite how cool my teenage self thought psi-arrows were.

On a related note, as cool as I think Dust’s sexy form-fitting burqa looks, I refuse to draw her because of the inherent contradiction of a sexy form-fitting burqa.

I loved early Excalibur, like the first half of the run. I stopped regularly collecting the title when Brian became Brittanic and Prick Wisdom came. But it was around then that I got that Fleer trading card that called Meggan “Tapestry.” I loved the new codename and assumed that’s what she was using in the book. I only found out recently, the name was only ever used on the card… well there and on my drawing- hehe.

Alan Davis’ Meggan captured my imagination. I liked that her facial expressions were so sincere. It really complimented the childlike innocence he was trying to convey.

I met this girl in college who loved Alan Davis’ Meggan. She insisted that Davis drew her kinda heavy and did so in her own fan-art of the character. I didn’t have my comic collection Freshman year, so I couldn’t cross reference to be sure. So in my head, she made me picture Davis’ Meggan as kinda thick. When I finally checked back, I saw that Davis did indeed draw Meggan tall and with huge knockers. And although she wasn’t skinny, she was by no means heavy. But my friend had already done the damage, ingraining BBW Meggan into my skull. Of all the X-Women though, I see Meggan as the one most likely to wear this body type well.

I decided to go balls to the wall with Longshot and really show him how I see him. He’s a star. He’s a charmer. And he had some serious dated hair.

Instead of giving him a boring un-unique hairstyle, I chose to emphasize the mullet, making it bigger and better than ever.

Truth be told, in the hippest circles, the mullet is cool again. I can’t even count how many hot guys with ironic mullets I spy getting tons of attention here in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

And find out why everyone’s always falling in love with him with my nude version at anti-heroes.net > members gallery > fanboy > X-Men. If it’s really as big as what I gave him, I’d fall in love too, mullet and all.

Skin got a raw deal. Next to Rictor and Feral, this kid was the only Hispanic X-Person for years. I sure complain about it often enough, but I’m still mad about his pointless death. Maybe that’s why subconsciously I made his face super cute!
My cute lil’ mutie ese! LOL.

And if you guys like foreskin, you gotta take a look at my nude version. “Angelo has an extra six square feet of skin” is what they always said. See where I put some of that…

I’m not a big proponent of doing fan-art of characters I don’t know. If you’re not a FAN, then it’s not fan-art. That said, I will admit that I’ve not read a single issue with Nezhno in it. Well maybe he’s in the background of some of my books, but I don’t quite care to check right now. My excuse for including the kid is… well, he’s an X-Man, and he looks kinda cool. From what I’ve gathered, he’s half Wakandan, half German and a pacifist. Storm was his teacher and he has vibranium tattoos to keep his mass/ strength-building powers in check. It has been foretold that his powers will eventually kill him (not surprising, he IS brown, after all. Can’t keep their asses alive for too long, can we?)

His codename is “Gentle” but I find that kinda stupid, so he’s just going by his real name in my art. And in the nude version, you’ll see that his muscles aren’t the only place those mass-building powers have come in handy…

Once again, here’s Jamal, the adorable horse hung geek
from my latest series of commissions featuring ANACONDA.
This is the first piece to actually NOT feature Anaconda, as Jamal has become quite popular!

Decided to try my hand at colored pencil again, thinking that it may save time on coloring. WRONG. But iat least it came out nice, don’t you think?
