Kilowog modern art homage in the style of Keith Haring

Kilowog in the style of 1980s modern art, inspired by the original Keith Haring 'Untitled' 1984 art piece.

[Workflow: I fed several of Keith's artworks into Gemini 2.5 Flash Image (Nano Banana) to create multiple base samples. I then imported these into Affinity Photo, where I began collaging various components. Cleaned up many issues created during image overlays, halftoned it, and I also used Topaz Gigapixel to upscale some elements of the image flow as needed.]

Justice League #41 - ComicBase Exclusive 'JL#1 Maguire Homage' Cover by TrUzApalOOza

I've created another imaginary DC Comics variant comic book cover.  Inspired by the original Kevin Maguire/Terry Austin artwork from 1987's Justice League no.1 comic book art.   

[Workflow: I sourced images from various DC comic book covers and fed them into Gemini 2.5 Flash Image (Nano Banana) to create multiple base pieces. I then imported these into Affinity Photo, where I began collaging various components. I then finalized the "versus Toyman" logo, adjusted the layout of the blank sketch cover, designed the barcode, and inserted patriotic-hued creator credits. Additionally, I used Topaz Gigapixel to upscale various elements of the image flow as needed.]

Superman with Heat Vision Blasting Toward the Viewer

I saw a nice sketch by Jordan Gibson last week, and fed it through some image prompts to get me an homage version of my own to edit on.  Cleaned up image glitches, and then I added some new background villains, heat vision beams, and a clean logo from the early days of Superman, with all my tweaking done within Affinity Photo.

Dasha - What Happens Now?

The stock album cover for "WHAT HAPPENS NOW? (Deluxe)" was a simple image of Dasha sitting on a horse without any album text, so I made text labeling adjustments, including adding her belt buckle from the back cover to her outfit. Be sure to grab your copy over at Dasha's promotional site.
