The return of a beloved
series
Started today on
Vril Dox's plushie and the study of
Simeon's Paul. Paul
is a bit tricky, though, because his face is noe the kind of face I'm used to
drawing. The quick sketch turned out pretty good, though he looks a bit psycho
(hopefully he won't look like that when the whole plushie comes together). It's
a challenge I'm enjoying.
Vril's face... I'm thinking of doing it in my style. Making a Machiavellian
despot look cute will be fun. The hair will be another challenge, since it's
close-cropped.

My makeshift workspace is looking like this currently. Arashi loves to lie
down right beneath my feet.

And a closeup of Vril's body and Paul's sketch, overseen by my Vril action
figure (never sold in stores).
That figure was a Punisher figure I painted over after seeing photos of
modified figures found in Wizard magazine. Yeah... I was (and still am) a Vril
Dox fangirl. Now that I think of it, Vril, Stealth and Phase were probably the
first characters I ever fangirled over.
In any case, I didn't feel like going through all my L.E.G.I.O.N. and
R.E.B.E.L.S. comics to look for the panel where I copied the L.E.G.I.O.N.
insignia for the figure's chest, simply because Arashi is extremely curious and
bites anything new within his reach to see if it tastes good. I decided to
search online (and now just thought that I could just copy the one I did for the
figure).
I came this article from
last year. New R.E.B.E.L.S. comic! Yay! Vril Dox is back!
Actually, the first number went on sale on February. But the news have
certainly made up for the "Reborn on Crunchyroll" and "MSG 0081 will be a game"
bad news.
Love
Vril's new threads. He looks like the badass that he is.
I wonder if I should go with the subscription or look for another way to
collect it. I know the post office has changed for the better, and I've received
95% of my stuff, but I don't know if DC stills ship them in the clear bags where
the comic's cover can get it confiscated or "lost". Back in the 90s I changed
the subscription to mail to my home address and I only got half of them. Not
ready to risk it yet...
Back to the plushies ^_^.
Feeling: creative
Now playing:
Eternal Wind - Hohoemi wa Hikaru Kaze no Naka (One of my burned audio cds)
