VECCA - Conventionless Convention Sketch

Vecca is a D&D character that Matt requested. He said she was "a buxom fortune teller-bard with Tarot cards and a flare for the dramatic." I hope I hit all the key parts with this piece. :) Thanks again Matt!

CONUNDRUM - Conventionless Convention Sketch

This one is for Matt. I am not familiar with this character, suspect she was created by Matt, but I could be wrong. Either way, she was fun to draw. :) Thanks Matt!

RED SONJA - Conventionless Convention Sketch

Here is the other redhead requested by Gary. It seems odd to me that Gary asked for two redheads for his sketches. Never happened before. I can only guess that some recent event might have influenced him. ;)

Thanks Gary!

Gary picked a couple of redheads for this two Conventionless Convention Sketches. (Though this is only black and white, take my word for it, they are redheads) You will have to wait till tomorrow to see who the second one is, but the first one is here and she is the Goblin Queen! Thanks Gary!

ELEMENT LAD & WHITE WITCH - Conventionless Convention Sketch

These are the last two Legionnaires for Michael. It was fun to explore the 5 Years Later Legionnaires. Thanks again Michael!

Element Lad - There is a moment that we discover that Element Lad went back to his home planet after the Legion disbanded. He spent years there creating crystal monuments for all of the dead. Everyone on his planet had the ability to change elements from one to another. With the exception of Element Lad, the planet's population was killed for refusing to do the bidding of Roxxas, a space pirate of sorts. The idea that Element Lad spent years alone doing this was touching. It stayed with me.

The White Witch has gone through so many changes in appearance since she first appeared in Adventure Comics in the 1960s. Finding reference for her look during the 5 Years Later storyline proved the toughest of the batch. I ended up mixing what series artist Stuart Immonen did with what Esteban Maroto did for the Witch's Who's Who in the Legion entry. I think it works. :)

LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES - Conventionless Convention Sketch

Today was a good day. I set aside the day for a batch of CCSs, and even though I had a few distractions from other work, I still managed to pencil six and ink these four. And had fun doing them. Almost like being at a show. :)

All four are for Michael and feature more of the Legion from the 5 Years Later storyline. First up is:

Brainiac 5 (Querl Dox)

Cosmic Boy (Rokk Krinn) 

Invisible Kid (Jacques Foccart)

Shrinking Violet (Salu Digby)

Thanks again Michael!
