Hey it’s Saturday! Time to upload the post that should have gone up yesterday! Flashback to Flashback Friday!

Here’s Zoë as Jean Grey when she was the Phoenix.

Here’s a comparison to the original. This is a case where the original almost outshines the remake in my view. The lines are definitely stronger in the remake, but the phoenix effect in the first one just worked better. It’s something I couldn’t quite replicate.

That’s all for this week. Have a great weekend folks!

Creepy greetings and crawly salutations all. It’s time for some more Hallowe’en fun!

This week we have a mummy, a skeleton and a ghost, played by Big Oonch, Sass and Zoë respectively.

Here’s Zoë as the ghost. I really didn’t know how to colour this one. It’s..alright.

Here’s Big Oonch as a mummy. He had a little trouble with the bandages.

Here’s Sass as a skeleton. This is my favorite of the three. I get a flashback of the original Karate Kid looking at it.

That’s all for this week. The final spooky chapter comes next Wednesday just in time for Hallowe’en!

Well if Friiiiiiday! Time to flash it back! Oh yeah!

The last of the August birthdays was last Saturday: Zoë’s. She used to be difficult to draw. I feel I have a much better handle on her now. And Popkin has always been fun to draw and to write, because he only ever says one line, “I am Gro–” errr, I mean “Pickles!” The biggest difference with this and her comic strip style is the feet. I don’t know why I gave her the long toes in the comics, but it just doesn’t look good in mash-ups so she gets regular feet.

Here’s a comparison to the original piece in mash-up style. Again I forewent the action pose and just went with something natural. It works so well.

That’s all for now. Who’s next (it’s not Goldberg)? Find out next Friday!
