You might want to check out page 12 of "Menace in Metal!"; I did a little tweaking of the big panel on the lower half.

The coloring on that panel (Dyna in flight) looked so good that, when I turned the line art layer off, it looked almost like a painting. So I kept refining the color work, smoothing and defining edges, fixing a little wonky anatomy, etc. and replaced the existing art with the new stuff. There are no ink lines in the new panel.

And I was so proud of how that came out that I adapted it into a new desktop picture that you can get here.

That’s a lovely effect there, DCM! Thanks for the alternate version in the story. It makes a fantastic desktop too! Thanks for all your hard work.

I hadn’t seen Sonia’s desktop on the ‘spicier desktops’ page before. Are you thinking of transferring a few more Dyna/Tetsuko pics into desktops in the near future? They’re really great!

I love your artwork and have actually used a couple of your pics as a referrence for some of my own drawings (hope you don’t mind). I’ve always been a huge comic book fan but they have always been scared to put any female muscle in the books so when I first got hooked up to the net about 6 years ago and found your page I became a regular to your sight and check it often. Have you ever thought of scetching a pic of the new UBER she- hulk from the last couple issues of her comic? Keep up the great work.

Looking nifty. It’s got that classic 1940s Superman feel to it with the caption dialogue the way it is.

Will Dyna have any superhero friends? 😀

Haven’t decided yet… one thing I don’t want to do is populate this particular "universe" with too many superbeings, lest we dilute what makes Dyna special.

That said, having a friend or two in the "superhero" community could make for some interesting reading; give Dyna someone she can "talk shop" with. That kind of thing.

Thanks for the compliments!

As for making more desktops of Tetsuko or Dyna art: I’d have to create new art for those; the comics I’ve done so far (up to Dyna) have not been drawn large enough to make good desktop pics especially at the larger sizes (1024×768 and up). The Dyna desktop was a lucky break… I’m doing the original art for each strip at 2870 by 2250 (which is reduced to 755 by 592 for the web, almost 75%), so getting a desktop pic at even 1600 by 1200 was no problem; usually I’d have to enlarge the art which of course spoils the detail. But keep watching; I intend to add more desktops when I get the inspiration (and time) to do them.

Well, I’m flattered! …and a little frightened: someone’s using my work for reference when I still have so much to learn (and relearn!!) about drawing figures. (and cars, and buildings, and weapons, and…)

I’ve always been a huge comic book fan but they have always been scared to put any female muscle in the books so when I first got hooked up to the net about 6 years ago and found your page I became a regular to your sight and check it often.

Yeah, that lack of female muscle in comics is largely what spurred me to create my characters. And I’m sure more than a few other writers and artists on this very board will list that as an impetus themselves.

Have you ever thought of scetching a pic of the new UBER she- hulk from the last couple issues of her comic? Keep up the great work.

Mmmwellll, I don’t want to spoil what’s probably supposed to be a surprise, but there will be something like an uber-buffed She-Hulk drawing by me on the Web in the near future…

Yay! 😀

I look forward to it!
