I have been meaning to do this for a long time. It's a yaoi idea between Julian and Jordan from the Cavaliers. Well, yaoi is actually boy's love term, it's popular in Japan and it's catching up pretty fast all over the world. Close example? Check out Brokeback Mountain and you will know what i mean. The thing is, i figured I'll just join in the fun and see what i can do with these two opposite attracts character. Julian is a high spirited, jovial, happy-go-lucky person. Always laughing and giggling, more like a 9 year old kid who doesn't have a care in the world. Enter Jordan. Always brooding, never smiles, very short-tempered, likes to pick up a fight, aggressive, and even rumoured to be a demon who will destory all humanity. Both of them hate each other's guts, but occasionally they hang out like good friends should. But do they have something that they don't even know, but it's there? Now that is a mystery indeed. *nods*
Yeah it's kind of very late. Cavaliers #2 should be released like.. since last year. But I'm moving on. Although a little late, but I'm moving on bebeh! In Cavs #2, the origin of how they became 'the Gods' bodies' were told. So, wait for it! ^_^
So how did i do? I spent 4 hours doing this coloring. It was fun and i guess it's a labor of love. Never actually thought of coloring it this way, it was an experiment. Comments are welcome. Critics too. ;)
Thanx to Jack for checking out my blog posts. Heck i really miss the Main place a whole lot. But i'm trying to finish a few pages of Cavs #2 so i can prove to Jim that i'm not a very bad person after all. So far i got 5 pages.... LOL XD But i am pushing it! Eeek Eekkk!
The Main place..... sounds like an idea brewing in my head.... ^_^
Reminds me of the song called Paperback Writer by The Beatles.
Funny that i can't seem to find my photoshop and illustrator cs3 cd. I know i've put it somewhere. I hate it when i misplaced things! Baka! LOL XD
Comic Fiesta is coming soon. On the 20-21st December. I'm working on Cavaliers #2. Yesterday I've discovered my very early version (not really THAT early) of Cavaliers and it's about how they met and how the Cavaliers came about. Very very different from the idea i have now. In fact, it's so different that i have forgotten how i actually start thinking about it in the first place. But as i read through the 46 pages of comic that did, i felt very nostalgic about it. Something deep within me moved and i smiled the whole night. I realized this Cavaliers project has been in my blood ever since, and i certainly can't be parted with it. They're like my family. My sons. I need to look after their well-being and i need to protect them from any harm. Yeah it sounds kind of corny, but i really love them. After all, i created them. LOL XD!
I started listening to Vanessa Mae's Contradanza. I haven't heard the song for awhile. This particular song inspired me to draw the robust energetic attitude of the Cavaliers and their distinguishable passion for adventure. Every rhythm, every harmony, every notes, has a drama and story unfolding within it. I was very much excited to relate the group with this music. It's so much fun and there's abundance of freedom in the music. It's almost as if it's portraying the every essence of being youths, teenagers, children. It's the freedom of life itself. Wow it's giving me goosebumps!
I'm going to try my hands on drawing Nova Kane, E-man's partner and maybe girlfriend i suppose.
But i need to get me a photoshop and illustrator first. :)
Oh by the way, here's some pages from the early Cavaliers comic i had worked on.
The idea is pretty lame. I'm happy i developed it into something entirely different now. XD And no, Jule's body is not as beefed up as in the above comic.
Gotta get photoshop after lunch. In the meantime I'll work on the latest Cavaliers #2. I think i'm going to be very happy getting back on track again. :)
Yes i'm a fan of Legion of Superheroes. And one of my fav's Saturn Girl. I can't use photoshop coz my computer was being repaired so i used color pencils instead.
