Haven't seen them before. Great versions of Archer, Magnus, Geomancer, Solar, Bloodshot, X-O and Eternal Warrior! Do you know when Sean drew them?

I like all of them except for his rendition of the Eternal Warrior. I think he looks a little too errrr.... feminine with the long hair.

Other than that I really like the rest of the versions! :thumb:

These were practice sketches done 3 years ago when a small group my friends from the old Valiant days conspired to release our own relaunch of the universe in an unofficial (and illegal) way. For that reason, all the talents involved would have been uncredited. I won't say which artist and writers were on board, but suffice to say that it would have been a professional package all the way.

Eventually we all sobered up and realized we were crazy to devote so much time and effort without pay.

I have no idea where this drawing is now, but it appears in our theBLVD Sketchbook Vol. 1.

To the original poster: Do you have the original? Just wondering.

I would have loved to have been the proverbial "fly on the wall" during the get-togethers you all had...
