Thanks Decatonkeil.
Anyway, as I’ve mentioned my Armageddon Storyline thing, might as well put up my favourite 5 pictures that I made as covers for the main story. I’ll hopefully put the whole story up in the Writers Room, once I’ve finished it.
I made a few little mistakes here, forgetting to make insignias transparent after masking stuff to them, but over all I think it’s probably my second favourite.
Apologies for any offence caused by this one, I know it is a tad graphic. It also happens to be my favourite out of the 20 covers I’ve done for this story. It took me quite a few hours to do.
This one seems to be the most popular in terms of views on my deviantart page, and in terms of time taken this was the hardest one to do trying to do the backwards facing kneeling pose. I extend my thanks to MartianBlue for putting up the seated pose on the ugo forums. It saved me an unknowable amount of time. Same goes for AMS and SeanDavidRoss throughout the entire set.
Once again, the screw up rears it’s ugly head. I did the foreground characters separately from the background with this one, simply due to other things going on. The more eagle-eyed of you will probably have noticed that Gabriel’s wing gets cut off slightly short of the edge of the image at the top. I thought I had aligned it properly, but alas no. Still, good scene.
So Many Wings! Trying to get them to work with the seated pose was a headache, making sure that they weren’t cut off by the throne arms and stuff like that. And the dreaded back pose. Much easier with a bald guy, you don’t have to worry about what the hair is doing, but then you get the weird bit were the head meets the neck.Hope you like them. If you want to check out the rest (there are some proper dodgy ones there) and what I have done of the story go to my deviantart page. Same name as here.
Resurrection Man (Yes, I have been told that DC have a character who goes by that name, but I wasn’t aware of that when I designed him)
Don’t know if he should be a hero or a villain, he’s probably neither. His powers are a bit self explanatory really. He can bring people back to life. Their condition depends on Resurrection Man’s mood and whether or not they were at peace. If the resurrected was not at peace, they will be brought back in their current corpse like state. However, if they were at peace, they will be resurrected as they were in life. Resurrection Man can bring back people either permanently (i.e. for the rest of their life-time) or for as long as he wants them. It is unknown if his powers extend to self resurrection.
