Hal

[[image:dc-hal.jpg:Martin Jordan’s kid:center:0]]  Hal here is a test pilot for Ferris Aircraft. Somehow he has plenty of spare time from his day job to moonlight as an officer of the Green Lantern Corps, assigned to Space Sector 2814 with his partner John. Here he is wearing his green power ring in flight looking not at all like Ryan Reynolds. Click here to view or download a larger version of the image.

Cody vs. Cody

In the early 1950s, Republic Pictures produced a black and white film serial featuring the character named Commando Cody. Cody was featured in two serials, namely Radar Men from the Moon and Commando Cody: Sky Marshal of the Universe. His costume included a helmet and a rocket pack, which allows him to fly. During this time, a young man watched these serials at the cinema. More than fifty years later, as part of a movie serial he himself created, that man developed a supporting character named Commander Cody who wears a helmet and sometimes a rocket pack, obviously inspired by and a homage to the former character. Here’s what happens when the heavens open up and they meet. Click here to view a larger version of the image.

The Fourth Sensei

Dare Sensei – The Fourth Sensei

Dare Sensei is a webcomic illustrated in manga form, which is an unofficial adaptation of BBC’s Doctor Who, where all the doctors are female. I’ve been commissioned by the writer of Dare Sensei to create any incarnation of the Senseis, and I’ve opted to illustrate the fourth, which is easily identified in the following image by her long coat, scarf and a sonic screwdriver. However, Irfan insists that this is River Song.

Saviours of the Light

Back in 2002, I was commissioned by Ian Houlihan to come up with five character illustrations for a Star Wars roleplaying game d20 one-shot scenario called Savours of the Light: The Soul Child. The scenario, set during the Dark Times, was to be run at The BIG Weekend. BIG was an acronym for Brisbane Indoor Games, which was obviously held indoors in the city of Brisbane, Australia. The characters were members of a music band who had to protect a Jedi padawan. The padawan had an infant in her care, who was strong in the Force. Not an easy task, for Imperial Inquisitors naturally are also hunting for the baby. I’ve found the five player characters I drew in a directory somewhere, but it appears the original files are lost forever. Here are the artwork I drew: Shari-Dae Elore, the Jedi Padawan, with the infant Tristan Forseti given to her […]

Female Nagai

It’s been a while since I did a Star Wars Artists’ Guild request. Here’s an unnamed Nagai female as requested by Matt on the boards for one of his two campaigns. Maybe she’s Xepheer Xeneeth‘s girlfriend or something. A bigger version can be found on DeviantArt.

The crew of the Fastball Special

The Fastball Express Gang

The Eclipse Phase RPG campaign I’ve been gaming in, gamemastered by Ivan, has been real fun. The posthuman campaign involves the players as “pre-emptive retrieval specialists” who have been plying their trade between Luna, Mars and the asteroid belt. And although I’ve drawn Hokusai before, as well as Billy Cable Jr. and Bishop-6 in vac suits, here is the first ever visual representation of the entire crew of the cargo ship Fastball Special. Here are the elements that made up the composite image above, according to alphabetical order:

Tortoise vs. Iguana

Gamera vs. Godzilla

800th blog post! Irfan’s been on a daikaiju kick lately. Checking out all the monster throwdowns on Youtube, he’s decided that giant, flying, bipedal sabre-toothed tortoise Gamera is his favourite monster. We quickly illustrated this picture earlier this morning. Click on the thumbnail for the full image.

Drawing from After the Fall

Eclipse Phase was on today. I played Hokusai Tarnungshaut the uplifted octopus once again. As we played, I sketched the final scenario as we played it. Here we were, Bishop Six, Billy Cable Jr. and I had to rescue Maria, the advisor to the von Trapp family in spaaaace (a bunch of neotenics, really) from the Nine Lives crime syndicate. We all wore vac suits because we infiltrated the bad guys’ base from outside the space habitat, where I lost my Groucho Marx glasses. I wielded a pair of heavy railgun pistols, the neurachem-stimulated Bishop Six had a sniper rifle slung on his back and Billy wore a pickelhaube helmet for some reason and tried to bluff some guards with a dazzler in his hand. Ultimately, we figured out how one does solve a problem like Maria.

Strike Force 7 Spot Illustrations

Recently I was given the task to come up with some spot illustrations for Strike Force 7 – Savaged! from Super Genius Games, the role-playing game that uses the Savage Worlds system. It’s currently available for sale as a pdf on RPGNow and DriveThruRPG, but Super Genius Games will soon be releasing a print edition. Strike Force 7 is basically America’s daring special missions force, with a special purpose to defeat “Skorpion”, a ruthless terrorist organisation determined to take over the world. These are just minor black and white spot illustrations, so these aren’t the best or the biggest illustrations on the book. I can’t wait to see the final copy which must be filled with a host of great images.   Look for Strike Force 7 – Savaged! print edition coming in August to a book or hobby store near you!

A Penny Dreadful

… is a penny earned. Or something. Here is an image of a penny dreadful cover I made based on the three characters in the previous entry’s Doctor Who RPG game that chose to stay in the alternate timeline of Victorian London filled with strange alien refugees and hybridised alien technology from the future.
