I wonder what it would be like if there were no spaces between the panels, so they blended even more into each other. Probably a bit more confusing, but I think it also would make everything more kinetic.

Getting better. I like it that the Bloodsucker is drawn in an animesque way but Fidel is drawn in a more "western" way. :D

There are indeed a couple of good poses for Bloodsucker- is it?- in there, with the firing Uzi pose and "Hai guys I've been shot in the chest" pose.

I agree with Per. The blurring takes away some of the line quality. I suggest playing with the contrast levels in photoshop, see if that gives you an "inked" effect as well.

Here are sixteen of the Major Arcana from the new Universal Constants Tarot. I've played with the names and meaning of some of the cards, to personalize them better.

Image

The Fool and The Magician

Image

The Emperor and The Empress

Image

The Lovers and The Chariot

Image

The Soldier and The Hermit

Image

The Hanged Man and The Assassin

Image

The Temple and The Stars

Image

The Moon and The Sun

Image

The Singularity and The Universe

I've still got six more to complete the Major Arcana, and then I'll start thinking about doing the Minor Arcana (the four suits).

Those are awesome, Arty!

My favorite would have to be The Assassin. The face on that cube is creepy.

I love the surreality. I gotta go with THE TEMPLE.

And, mang. It is slightly blurry.

Yesterday, a Net pal of mine (who regularly lurked at OZ but never signed up) asked if he could have the original unmerged file of Karen in the mistletoe pic I made. I just received the e-mail of what he made out of it, and an edited background he Googled. :D

The Karen demotivator I received inspiried me to make my own. I remebered Shroom's Heavy Assault Rex, and I decided to use it.

Just a guess, but it looks a little bit like the four-barreled rocket launcher pistol the US Army's "Future Force" warrior used. The guy with the motorbike helmet.

It is an "all-in-one" pistol that can fire ridiculously many different types of specialist ammunition, sorta like Judge Dredd's gun.
