Evil! EEEVILLL!

[Captain Spam]

Now, then. Now. Then. The very scant few of you who regularly <a href="http://buzzcomix.net/in.php?ID=captainspam">vote</a> for <a href="http://dementiaofmagic.net">my comic</a> at BuzzComix may remember a pic I did a while ago of an evil version of Phinn. It's been archived in the December 2003 Vote Bonus Doodles if you missed it. I'm not linking it directly. I have the feeling it falls outside of what's acceptable around these forums. Yes, it's one of THOSE pics.

But I had a sudden flash of insight! Why not play on a parody of her normal attire instead (as opposed to startlingly little attire)? It'd make her look FAR more evil!

So huzzah! A new doodle was born!

Enjoy! Like I said for the other one, no, this version of Phinn won't play a part in the comic proper at all.

She doesn't really scream "evil". Try work with her hair style.

Good, but the secret to evil lies in armor, dramatic wind effects, and sharp stuff.

and...dare I say it...color?

Well, c'mon, it's Phinn. She isn't exactly the best subject to be evil. :-)

While I do agree, I could've worked a bit more with her hair (it actually DOES fall off to jagged points, it's just that you can't see it well from the perspective), the problem is that if I change too much of her base appearance, she might not be recognizeable as Phinn. And like I said, she's not exactly the most evil-looking person to begin with. Oops. :-)

Maybe, but I was going a bit more for a Morticia Addams sort of evil. Subdued and 'calm' is a bit more that style. Sinister more than intimidating.

You don't get color with my scratchpad doodles and you know it, Xion. :-)

But, thankee all for the comments. They DO help, you know. :-)

Well, I was thinking more around like Black, White, and some greys between for shading...that'd add more effect. ^_^

Hmm.. I think I like this evil version of Phinn better. Better as in it seems more realistically evil, or something.

That's what I'm thinking, too. The other one was kinda fun to draw for a break, but this one turned out a lot better. Thankee!

Not just any shading! High contrast shading is needed to show true evilness. For example:

Que Passa!!!!

And that sound is Elvira cursing at her replacement. /\:D/\

Well, a friend of mine said he'd color it. I'll keep everyone informed...

You asked for it...

That's what my friend Petie of <a href="http://labgoats.com">Labgoats, Inc</a> came up with. He generally experiments with odd coloring and drawing styles. I like. Freaky. :-)

Now, he's also working on the full background and adding a bunch of shading tricks. But I'm saving that for a gift for donations. I'm running flat broke. :-)

^_^ Looks incredibly evil! Eviler than the first picture!
