Thanks so much, guys - it really means a lot to get such positive feedback and I appreciate it very much.

A couple of you VF members are already aware of this, but i just have to mention that Josh Dysart liked my drawing so much he retweeted it and also posted it up with a nice compliment on his own Facebook page too!! :cloud9:

So, I go ahead and put together this mock cover # infinity about two weeks ago now. Then I read archer & armstrong #7 and *SPOILER* The infinity symbol apparent plays a big role for archer*END SPOILER

Wow, cool.

Hey! I don't know if Kevin mentioned this already somewhere, but check out the Valiant Fan art Fumblr... Last weeks entries included a submission of Faith from Harbinger by a certain Madeline Bastos, co-host of the fun & fantastic MYNUVR podcast!! Hers is about the fifth one down, as of this posting... Kevin, you must be one proud papa :clap:

Saw you snuck one in there too last week, Mark. Nice work :thumb:

I think my favourite was wootjay's 'My Little Harbinger' pic. That was epic!


[& where is that girl, anyway - she hasn't been around here in a while... we should harass her a bit on Twitter, we being any VF members who follow her on The Twit!].

thanks! didn't exactly turn out how I wanted it to unfortunately, screwed up the hand a bit and really messed up Bloodshot's mouth while inking :lol: But hey it's all new to me so I don't care too much.

Jay's art always blows my mind she's super talented. I think she's been super busy with her work and stuff. or maybe she's just not a forum person.

That's awesome! Wish I had time to do something. I keep putting it off and then kicking myself later. Don't think I stand a chance anyway - this board has a lot of talented artists!

I never really stand a chance either but I don't really care. it's just fun for me. Before the FAF I had only done any kind of art as a child. hell now i've even made my first painting. I still think I kinda suck but I know for sure i'm getting at least a little better :)

I wish we knew the themes more in advance. I had an idea but didn't bother starting it bc I waited to see if there was a theme.

seeing Sean's Gamma vs Hulk has been the highlight of my day so far. I LOVE it. i'm a sucker for fan art that has impossible crossovers. Like Marrow's old Chuck Norris vs Ninjak :lol:

I think everyone has a chance, Valiant seems to award fun, creativity, enthusiasm, etc, as much as just drawing skill.

And thanks for the kind words. I surprised myself with this one! I've been drawing almost every day for the last month, and I think I'm seeing some improvement.

Agreed they are very kind and they do a great job spreading out the prizes. I think anyone that participates frequently will eventually get something for their efforts.

Same here. I'd rather be trampled by elephants than be on twitter. (At least that way, any son I might eventually have would have a great movie made about him.) But I've really enjoyed following this thread. So many great pictures. And plenty of bad ones too, which is nice because it reminds me that I'm not the only one who can't draw. :kidaround:

Just want to be clear - I love yours, Doc! Personally, I'm really glad to see you throw one down for this again, it's been awhile - keep 'em coming!

It makes me super happy that a whole bunch of us here are participating, I don't want anyone to be gettin' discouraged. [I'm looking at you, pixierosa!]
