Coming out of my longtime lurkdom to say I LOVE the Lilli and Dani piece. Wow!

New character redesign…Prince Flynn…story to come after I work out all the kinks.
The Magician
The fourth flagship hero of the VSU, James King uses technological gadgets and tricks to create seemingly magical attacks, effects, and illusions. Originally a sound technician and gambling addict working in Las Vegas, he once happened to be in the right place at the right time to stop a mugging-in-progress after a Friday night show. Obsessed with the resulting adrenaline rush ever since, he customised a bunch of props and stage equipment and became the costumed vigilante known as ‘The Magician.’
He was eventually invited to become a founding member of the IFL, where the other heroes can keep an eye on his maverick, often violent methods of dealing with criminals.
Krag Horncarver – goliath berserker barbarian
Here we have my first request to do a portrait of someone else’s character. I was given a reference picture (a fairly standard Kratos/Grog-style big-guy-in-furs affair), a character sheet, and a general description of his gauntlet and boots, and away I went. Since it was basically just something I was doing for someone else to be nice, I didn’t plan on spending a whole lot of time on it, and I didn’t quibble about details the way I do on my own pictures. But the guy thought it looked amazing, so if he’s happy I’m happy. And he does look pretty badass.

As the strongest warrior in a tribe of mountain goliaths that was conquered by an ancient blue dragon, Krag took it upon himself to escape from his bonds and embark on a personal quest to become stronger so that one day he might return to free his people from their oppressor.
Mantis
Flagship hero number three, Kazuko Haraguchi was tragically orphaned in a chemical explosion in her native Japan as a child – an accident which caused her to develop infrared and ultraviolet sight, and the ability to hear ultrasound frequencies. Taken in by the Order of Divine Assassins and given genetically enhanced reflexes and agility, she was brainwashed and trained in multiple martial arts to become a mindless killing machine.
The Order’s programming was eventually undone by the Jetman after several violent encounters, and after proving herself as the hero under the name ‘Mantis’ she became a founding member of the IFL.
My interpretation for MAX DARQUE. I had something started but this was mostly done after the results were posted.
The Jetman
Second on the flagship roster, Jerome Järvinen uses technology – namely a winged jetpack and suit of versatile power armour – to fight crime from the skies as ‘the Jetman’. A blonde haired, blue eyed man from Finland, this former military test pilot and current CEO of Järvinen Enterprises created the International Freedom League and recruited the other founding members.
