Here’s the group picture of the Animus cast dressed up as the Teen Titans. People who showed up at Zone 51 on Free Comic Book Day were able to walk away with a free postcard of this picture.

The observant amongst you will have noticed that Nektara is looking in the opposite direction here than she was in her picture by herself. The original way made it look like she was looking totally elsewhere than the rest of the crew. Those of you who aren’t observant will have noticed because I just told you.

Teen-Titans

For comparative purposes, here’s the picture of the real Teen Titans that I based this shot on. For those wondering, Nektara’s hood is down because I wanted her face to be visible. I don’t think the picture would have turned out well if I had drawn the hood up anyway.

Heyhey folks! Sorry I’m late with today’s mashup. I had a hard time getting up this morning and since the roads were still wet, I chose to take the bus so I was short on time. But better late than never as they say!

Today we conclude our visit with the cast of the Teen Titans. As always you can click on the picture to enlarge it.

I like to keep the character that I’m most looking forward to drawing for last and it’s funny how often that happens to be Sass’ character. Here she is as Starfire. I did something with the tail that I like. It’s nothing really special, it’s just bending forward at the tip, but it adds depth and it makes drawing Sass’ tail easier for me. I need to remember this.

Stay tuned for the cast picture coming within the next few minutes.

Good morning folks! It’s Wednesday that wonderful day of the week when I get paid…every other week. To celebrate let’s mash it up!

Titans GO!

Robin wears a mask. Red Rich wears a mask. This was the thought process behind casting Red Rich as Robin. This costume incorporates two out of the three Riches (Red and Green). One thing I’ve enjoyed in drawing the Titans is their boots. They’re just fun to draw and pretty easy too.

Robin

One Titan left. She’ll be here next Wednesday! See you then!

It’s Wednesday and my workplace is open (this was an issue yesterday due to the power going out). Time to post a mash-up and then go to work.

When there’s trouble, you know what to do…
CALL CYBORG!!!
He can shoot a rocket from his shoe…
CUZ HE’S CYBORG!!!

It’s Barnaby’s turn to shine this week (cuz he’s metal, get it?)! Sometimes the proportions of my characters make it challenging to reproduce poses. Most character designs (including the Teen Titans) start wide at the shoulder and narrow at the waist. My characters have no shoulders to speak of and wide waists. If the character I’m covering has shoulder pads or something along those lines (like Cyborg does) it makes it a little easier. As always, you can click on the picture to enlarge it.

That’s all for this week. Next week’s Titan will be the leader of the bunch. If you’ve seen this Monday’s blog, you know who it is. If not, you could go and check the blog out, cuz I sure ain’t gonna spoil it here! 😉
