X-O Manowar Vs. Xanithar

Post by Xanithar »

LOL! WHo's Xanithar your asking? It's my comic book character. Created him in 1997. Of course he is influenced by X-O Manowar.

I'm working on a comic. Slowlyyyy... I'm hoping to submit it to Valiant if they get up and running again. I don't really think I'm ready to be a Comic Book Professional, but even if I could get them to do a series of Xanithar with their team, I'd be Thrilled. lol! So many of us would be thrilled to have our comic books published.

But anyways, this is a piece of art (rough Sketch) of X-O Manowar vs. My Character Xanithar. Thought I'd share it for fun. I'm working on Coloring it right now. I may repost later if anyone is curious.

I also have a Freaking Killer looking SPider ALien with X-O Armored Skin. I will finish some details and post that one later as well.

Thanks for the kind Welcome. I love valiant comics. No Comic Publisher compares to the fantastic imaginations of Valiant.

It's funny, someone mentioned my character looks kind of like Sauron from Lord of the Rings. When I saw Lord of the Rings, I was like What the heck?? I designed my character in 1997. It's crazy how similar it was. But you know, in a way, almost anything you can think of has been created somewhere along the line. My idea actually spurned from the Shadow Man mask. When I saw the Shadow Man mask, I instantly knew that I could modify it in my own way.

But who knows, It's always possible my image was seen somewhere online. I once typed up a Screen Play for Labryrinth 2. (A short Screen Play) Sent it to the Jim Henson Company. Several months later, someone published a script with the same exact idea. Just goes to show, if your an Artist out there, Keep your stuff confidential as much as possible.

I have sent countless images online to Potential Collaborators on a book. It's so annoying, to this day I haven't found a collaborator to create a comic book with. People always find some reason to NOT Collaborate. You have to have LOVE for what you do, not just an un-ambitious way of thought that some fantastic opportunity of a lifetime is going to come to you, because that will Never Happen. I always say, even if your so so with art, it's better to give it your best shot. You learn a lot of new methods in the process and you can only improve anything you might lack with time and experience.

I may never do anything with my comic book, but I'll be drawing it until the day I die. : )

Cool site, That looks like a lot of fun. Sure I'd love to contribute to the Solar 2004 site. That looks like it could be a blast. It's cool to that you have scripts set out for it. What are you seeking at the moment for help?

And lol! Thanks. For the guy who re-stated Sauron looks like Xanithar. lol!.

Download the scripts, choose any section that hasn't been pencilled, and go for it. Any section you want is up for grabs.

The work you do will be a nice addition to your portfolio.

Very Cool. I will probably try this out near Tuesday of next week. But it sounds like a blast. I will definitely give it a try.

You can email me at Xanithar@hotmail.com if you want to write anything else or send anything. Thanks. Look forward to this Solar2004 fun work.
