Wonder Woman, the Dual-Bladed Amazon

Wonder Woman with dual swords is a formidable battlefield force capable of taking down multiple enemies with precision and speed. Her increased agility, strength, and combat skills make her an even more formidable opponent. However, her reliance on her dual swords might lead to overextension and distraction, making her more vulnerable to surprise attacks.

[Workflow: I really liked the layout from Outsiders (DC Comics 2024 series) issue #7 featuring art by Jerome Opeña.  I made my own version of this fighter's stance featuring Wonder Woman instead of Katana finishing up the NightCafe base start with clean-ups and enhancements in Affinity Photo.]

Laumda-III: A Bounty Hunter's Paradise

A fleet of eclectic spacecraft, each with its unique design and markings, descended onto the mist-shrouded planet of Laumda-III. The ships, a diverse assortment of vessels from various corners of the galaxy, had been drawn to the planet by a lucrative bounty on the head of a notorious outlaw. As the ships landed, teams of skilled bounty hunters emerged from each craft, their eyes scanning the dense jungle landscape for any sign of their quarry. The air was thick with the sounds of chirping insects and the distant rumble of a waterfall, but the hunters moved with purpose, their mission clear: track down the outlaw and claim the reward. The purple-tinted jungle seemed to swallow them whole, but the hunters were undaunted, driven by the promise of a hefty payday and the thrill of the hunt.














Harley Quinn's Beach Vacation

Harley Quinn trades in her mallet for a beach umbrella, swapping her villainous ways for a day of sun, sand, and serenity. She soaks up the rays in a bright pink bikini, her signature jester hat replaced with a trendy beach cover-up. As she lounges on the shore, the sound of the waves and seagulls replaces the rumble of her stolen Harley-Davidson. For one day, the Clown Princess of Crime hangs up her wicked ways and indulges in a little R&R.

A Demon and a Magician Get on a London Bus... plus [TrUzApalOOza cardstock variant cover]

I created a NightCafe version inspired by Aaron Campbell's John Constantine, Hellblazer: Dead in America #5 published by DC Comics, and finished it with several edits within Affinity Photo.   Also turned my artwork into a TrUzApalOOza cardstock variant cover edition.













Smoke and Symbols

A #TrUzEDIT remixed version of John Constantine riding atop a London double-decker bus, casually smoking a cigarette. The faint outline of a pentagram is etched into the roof of the bus beneath him.

[Workflow: Extracted image from the cover art by Aaron Campbell on John Constantine, Hellblazer: Dad in America #5 (2024).  Extracted out the main image and changed the focus on the bus, added font work and credit lines, masked in a pentagram using Affinity Photo.]

The Last Hope of Prima-II

The once-vibrant colony on Prima-II now lies deserted and hauntingly quiet. The ambitious terraforming project, intended to transform the planet into a haven for humanity, has spiraled into a devastating catastrophe. Colonists, who once called Prima-II their home, are now compelled to flee in a desperate struggle for survival. Months of mounting terraforming setbacks culminated in a catastrophic event that left no choice but evacuation. The planet's air has turned toxic, its once-fertile lands now barren and devoid of life, and its once-pure waters are tainted and undrinkable.

Amidst the chaos of boarding evacuation vessels, the colonists grapple with profound feelings of grief and hopelessness. Their cherished life on Prima-II is abruptly torn from them. The specter of the failed terraforming endeavor looms over them, casting a shadow that will linger for years to come. The evacuation descends into pandemonium as panic grips the colonists, scrambling to salvage belongings and bid farewell. The once-bustling colony now stands as a desolate ghost town, a stark reminder of the disastrous consequences of the terraforming project's collapse.



Vintage 1947 Postcard Featuring a Boudoir Wonder Woman

I attempted to create a vintage-looking 1940s postcard featuring Wonder Woman's home island, which was advertised as a new vacation spot for the rich citizens of New York City.

[Workflow: collected source images, layered boudoir Wonder Woman onto the postcard side, font work, pulled some lettering from 1940's Wonder Woman comic for the back of the card, added vacation font for the front, various layers of dirt, and patina, brush layers for more roughage. Most of this in Affinity Photo but a few brushes were tweaked in Affinity Designer]
