Aquarius!

Boy, this one was tough. How to draw a gal carrying two full water bottles without making her a husky body builder proved a challenge. In the end she's still husky but hopefully not unattractively so.

Only Gemini left...she's drawn but not yet coloured.

My most pressing work is this Wonder Woman story I'm doing with Cooke! Holy crap, is it ever fun. If I could just get paid to draw Wonder Woman all the time that would be cool. Although a lot of the joy is in the story that Darwyn cooked up (it's impossible not to pun on his name when you're hopelessly punny like I am). It's only six pages but we pack an awful lot of women into those six pages!!

Bring it up to Darwyn and DC. You and Darwyn on a Wonder Woman mini-series (or on-going), whether it's in the New Frontier universe, or any other. I'd sure as hell buy it!

The Zodiac is terrific! Looking forward to seeing Gemini... Gemini's?

Do you ever do commissions? I'm in the UK so dropping by a convention isn't easy! :)

Jason - Indeed. How would you like a job as an editor at DC? I could put in the good word for you :)

Icon-uk - Poor Geminis...I'm almost done, I swear! To answer your question I don't yet do commissions (workload just doesn't allow for it) but I'm working on ways to get some of this blog art into print. Hopefully soon...

best,

Aquarius came out great.

Looking forward to your WW story with Cooke. Do you know yet where/when it will see print?

I like your Aquarius drawing. I could be biased though, because I'm Aquarius. One day I hope to be as tough as her!

Love it. Though I think I'm partial to the guy version.
