Altitis strikes again (I really need rehab on that, but anyway), here's a Timm's image of my new character Desi Belle. She's a sonic/electric blaster.

Desi Belle - Animated style

Backstory is, she was a guitarist in a punk band until she was struck by lightning during an outdoor concert.

She's my first character on Virtue.

Is there a modern style you can't do well?

Stop being so frickin' awesome!

lol. Thanks

Just having a little fun. I've thought about trying a shot at a more classic Timms style not so much the bright flat colors, more the watercolor/pastel look...just to see how that comes out.

Thanks,
Todd

p.s. I have to give credit to my wife who helped out majorly on the concept and costume.

Nice picture. Although I DO have a question: by "animated" style, do you mean anime style? I ask because based on the picture name I was expecting something that moved.

Good point, the term "Animated" (around these parts at least) seems to also have reference to the "Animated Series" look of cartoon shows like Batman and Superman for Warner Brothers with the art style created by Bruce Timms.

Anyone else feel free to chime in here.

I apologize for the confusion.

Thanks!

Wow....did I actually use the phrase "around these parts" on a message board post? My word! I've even got a hick accent on message boards.

That is a really nice piece of art, and a wicked-cool name pun.
