Martyr Martyr Martyr

So I hated my Martyr post. Started again. Hated that one. Started again. Here's the third try:

Here's the half-finished second try:

Still not happy. But I'm done with Martyr for now. Must move on.

Tetsuo vs Goku

A friend of mine inspired this bit of lunacy.

Phyla-Vell Martyr

She has a complicated back story. She's dead now. Look her up. Another modern era Guardian.

Cosmo the telepathic Russian space dog

In the comics he runs security at Knowhere, the sometime base of operations of the modern Guardians of the Galaxy.

Jack Flag re-do

Didn't like the last one at all.

Jack Flag

1st modern Guardians of the Galaxy!
He use to hang with Captain America. Crippled by Bullseye during the Civil War. Sent to the Negative Zone as a prisoner. Broke out with Star Lord and was healed by sci-fi. Joined up with Star Lord and was a member of the Guardians of the Galaxy until Star Lord's apparent death. now in comic book limbo.

Talon

Last of the 90's era Guardians of the Galaxy.

Rita DeMara Yellowjacket

Another 90's edition to the Guardians. Just one more until we get to the more modern members.

The Spirit of Vengeance do-over

I really didn't like the first one I did of this guy. So here's Wileaydus Autolycus again.

Simon "Hollywood" Williams

The alternate future Wonder Man of the 90's Guardians of the Galaxy team.

Giraud the 30th Century Phoenix

Another member of the 90's Guardians of the Galaxy. Many more to come.

Mainframe

An alternate future virtual Vision Guardian of the Galaxy from the 90's Valentino team.

Firelord

Another 90's addition to the Guardians. Why do so many Guardians have their heads on fire?

Replica

Another Valentino era Guardian of the Galaxy.

Wileaydus Autolycus the Spirit of Vengeance

This Guardian of the Galaxy was from the era of comic-y excess known as the 90's. Space Ghost Rider! Oh yeah.

Aleta Ogord

Another early Guardians of the Galaxy.

Charlie 27

Another original Guardian of the Galaxy. Lots more to come. There are many Guardians of the Galaxy.

Yondu Udonta

A bit different from Michael Rooker's very awesome portrayal from the Guardians of the Galaxy movie. But some things were the same.

James Gunn kept the yaka whistle arrow. The Freakin' Yaka Whistle Arrow!!! For that and so much more James Gunn deserves respect.

A Comic Strip

Jason has no luck with love.

Vance Astro a.k.a. Major Victory

Another Guardian. More to come.

Starhawk

Another original Guardian of the Galaxy.

Nikki Gold

Another old school Guardian of the Galaxy. More to follow. You can tell I loved the movie.

Martinex

One of the original Guardians of the Galaxy.

Jaxxon and Amaiza Foxtrain

These two were in a couple of Marvel Star Wars comics from back in the 70's. This picture combines two of my favorite topics: Star Wars and comic book esoterica.

The Geefle and Gonk from Sesame Street or "The Fault Is in Our Arms"

These two taught me about cooperation (also known as "Shirley") as well as evolutionary symbiosis. On the planet Snoo two species evolved in such a way that their only source of food (nectarines) would always be out of reach (evolutionary dead-ends if ever there were any). One was tall enough to reach the fruit but could not use its, frankly, vestigial arms to feed itself. The other was just too short to reach the nectarine. Together, well, you know.

Lunatik

Been a long time. Gonna try a sketch a day. Here's a forgotten Marvel character from the 90's. He was like Lobo with "flair"(buttons adorning his jacket).  All I know about him I got from wikipedia. I biffed the blacks on his arms but that's what you get when you draw analog. My Cintiq is still boxed up from a recent move so it's gonna hafta be analog for a little while yet.

Blade

I'll try and color this later.

Transonic in Color!

Trying some color. Picked an easy one to start with. All blue. Can only get better.

She's from Generation Hope. A short lived but well done X-Men series from 2011. Now she can be found in the background of a few other X-Men series.

Still need to get the hang of digital coloring. I watched a Kris Anka time-lapsed sketch to get the basic idea.

Space Dandy

Saw this awesome cartoon a couple of days ago.
