I will probably do Deuce and maybe Lancer later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Epiphanis Posted September 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 Re: Women of the Champions Universe (Fanpictorial) Cryptic Studios apparently decided to represent psionic energy as magenta colored. Which makes a certain amount of sense: magenta is one of the very few colors that doesn't exist in the visual light spectrum and is, in effect, a neurological construct of the brain.

Christopher Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 Re: Women of the Champions Universe (Fanpictorial) I'd completely forgotten about her! When you have her (asumed) power as NCC Damage shield you would not be a good team player. ("I think we forgot something..., well never mind.") Anyway great pics. Please keep em comming.

AlHazred Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 Re: Women of the Champions Universe (Fanpictorial) Was I the only one expecting more cheesecake from a fanpictorial named "Women of the Champions Universe"?

I'm working on a "beach pictorial" of one of our groups: The Gateway Guardians. It's for fun but is also "in game" as the group is doing the pictures for charity.

Epiphanis Posted September 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 Re: Women of the Champions Universe (Fanpictorial) Every few years Marvel puts out a Women of Marvel swimsuit special. Frankly, superheroine swimsuit pinup art is what floated most of the comics industry through most of the 90s. As much as I like that sort of thing, the resurgence of actual writing in the 2000s was a welcome relief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenix240 Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 Re: Women of the Champions Universe (Fanpictorial) Well, if you're buying some thing called "The Marvel Swimsuit Special" for the story you may be going into it with misplaced expectations. I freely admit I like good pictures of attractive figures, photographic or drawn and if the art work is good I'll buy an art book or pictorial devoted to such material. For instance, the pictorial I'm doing for out game is for fun and to create some nice images. Working it into the campaign as a plot point was just a lark and possible hooks later. I don't think there's anything wrong about pictures for pictures sake, cheesecake or otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steriaca Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Re: Women of the Champions Universe (Fanpictorial) Don't get me wrong...chesecake, headlights, and bondage is good, in small amounts. And I am not saying that such stuff ruined comics in the 90's. Event comics, multi-cover overexposers, charater overexposion, and bad girl artwork also helped. And I am not a prude. I run a small Yahoo bondage group myself (Oldfashion Damsels in Distress BETA). I should just shut up now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus "heroes" who gleefully adopted the bad guys methods to show how "badass" they were, bad guys who made the Joker look like a beginner to show how "badass" they were and oodles of gratuitous violence, swearing and blooshed so the creators could say "Hey!

It's so prevalent in TV today (news, "reality shows"), I literally stopped watching TV because of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
