I was under the impression that it was a large enough vehicle for people to ride inside, rather than outside as you suggest.

Correct. The vehicle is not to scale. It's a large vessel around the size of the Seaquest from the tv show, not a single person vehicle

Based on characters that appeared on the cover of Exciting Comics #45, here is the Robot Master and one of his robots:

here's an image of the cover:

A warrior for an underwater race, and one of their submersibles...

True, but surely at least one Rudo would shamelessly expose his naked face?

Not unless he's forced to unmask by a tecnico 

I have a character that looks very similar.....

In addition to the previous 3, Joe also did images for the Drone Fighter and War Hive, ships used by the Cataclysm Swarm:

And this is an image of members of a race known as The Thal. They are descended from Neanderthals who were abducted from Earth by another race that has since died out. They have colonized a few systems, and are expanding into the galaxy. Their race has been thrust into the spotlight because one of their kind was chosen to bear The Watchlight (a force that empowers individuals much like the power rings of the various Lantern Corps in DC):

And speaking of that Thal empowered by the Watchlight, here she is:

So Joe wasn't happy with the first image he did of Cataclysmus, and said he'd do another. He sent me this sketch 2 days ago:

He also sent me this sketch, a new take on the Swarm Queen:

And here is the Warrior Drone that makes up the rank and file of the Cataclysm Swarm:

Reminds me of the mail guy at wolfram and Hart. On Angel defending Los Angeles from occult terrors with his band of sharp dressed luchadores they

fought Satan's robot

That was Cinco (Five) and his brothers. They were the champions of their era, much like Angel was the champion of his

Very nice! But surely they are misunderstood heroes? Luchadors are men of virtue! :-)

Not if they are Rudos! 

How about some zoot suit wearing villains in Lucha Libre masks? I'm putting together a group of villains that wear such colorful outfits. Think villainous power ranger types. But in zoot suits 

One group I'm working on are 4 deities from various pantheons who have been brought together a powerful being (whose identity is currently unknown). These 4 deities are filling the roles of the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse. I've had Brian Brinlee doing the art, and so far he's completed 3 of them. This is Aray (Armenian War God), Lamashtu (Mesopotamian Demon/Goddess of Disease) and Bres (Celtic/Formorian God of Agriculture). 

Here's some public domain characters I commissioned from an artist named James Shields. From left to right: Zog, prince of Mars, The Thinker, The Stellar Man, and an Aldebaran:

From the mind of Ken Hite.....

How'd you do those pics? They're AWESOMESAUCE!!!!

I hired Joe Singleton to draw them based on character concepts I gave him....

Regarding the third picture: someone had better get hold of Reed Richards and tell him his Negative Zone

files need updating ( )...

Cataclysmus has never been to the Negative Zone in it's existence. Richards has nothing to worry about 

I'm working on a group of golden age villains. Take the basic idea of a sentai team (ie each member wears a costume of a specific color), have their costumes be zoot suits, and have them wear lucha libre style masks. The first member is on page 203, drawn by Anthony Green. I doled out the other 4 to 2 other artists, Dan Houser and Juan Paolo Manitata. Dan sent me sketches of his two pieces yesterday:

Got a few new things to share. First up is 3 images from Joe Singleton. First is The Torch, a public domain villain who fought The Black Terror:

Kestrel, an alien hero:

Last, but not least, the scumbag pi with telepathy known as Eavesdrop:

oh is that Prodigy Duck? Cool! I like having names for my artists.

Yup, that's Jacob

Ordered some commissions from Jacob Blackmon recently. First up is the brother/sister duo of Zip & Zap:

Next up is Bobcat, followed by Leech:

Got some colored pieces from Joe Singleton today. First up Blitz, a public domain villain. Caveman with Ice Powers:

The Glitch, a metahuman serial killer inspired by a critter in the movie V/H/S:

Lastly, Star Ghost, a character inspired by an amalgamation of Space Ghost and the original version of Marvel's Star-Lord:

Here's one Rhardo did for me: The WWII villain Ubermensch:
