Sixgunsloaded's odds & ends - Short Pic Story Update - 5/3/24
Posted: Tue Jun 14, 2016 6:13 pm
I've got a ton of one-off pics and short sequences that I made over the last few years and at least some of them might be worth sharing so I figured I'd do like some others have done and make this my odds-and-ends thread. That way I won't clutter up the Drawings pages with a bazillion posts and all my random stuff will be easier to find for anybody who's interested. I'll still put my larger projects in threads of their own.
This first bunch started out as just random tests to see how some new poses and lighting looked. They turned out pretty well so I did some more and strung them together into a short sequence.
This lady's name is Perilina and she's a superhero I came up with a few years ago and tweak every now and then. Her secret identity is Susan Traynor, a brilliant young physics and engineering major. She gets her power from her mesh suit that she designed after she accidentally created a new and powerful synthetic element. The purple crystals - 'Element X' - set into her arm bands, power the suit and the mesh transfers the energy into her body, giving her super-enhanced strength and speed and heightened senses.
She's not invincible. She's like Bionic Woman strong, or maybe Captain America strong. She can flip a car over, easily, with one hand but she can't, say, stop a falling building like Superman. And she can't fly but she can run over a hundred miles an hour. She's not bulletproof - she can take damage. But she's really fast and smart so she can usually avoid the damage to begin with. Plus, she's had martial arts training for much of her life so she already knows how to fight. But she's new to the whole superhero thing so she still gets herself into trouble a lot. Her best friend (the only person who knows her secret identity) gave her the name 'Perilina' after seeing her sort of bumble her way through her first adventure and, ultimately, triumph.
In this little sequence, the idea is that Perilina has been visited by a refugee from a parallel dimension who has come to Earth seeking her help in defeating the Karanthi who have been enslaving his people for generations. The refugee brings Perilina through the portal into his world - a savage jungle planet full of many dangers, the greatest of which is the War Beast - the Karanthi's monstrous enforcer.
Obviously, I've not covered all that in this little sequence, lol. But it's the fantasy behind this scene. Enjoy and let me know what you think!
P.S. They're Hi-Def as usual so click on 'em!
