Re: Fan Art Fridays
Okay I am new and really stupid. So this thread is just about posting your Valiant fanart, right?
I got a GIN-GR figure I made, before Armor Hunters came out.

Well, I went ahead and did next weeks FAF already, and it's pretty damn good. It's a variant on LaRosa's Bloodshot #25 cover.

The one thing you need most is patience, lots of it.
I am not that happy with how it turned out, granted it was done before issue one came out and we got a good look at GIN-GR. It could have gotten better.

Re: Fan Art Fridays
Hey everyone - Valiant might be doing an official #fanartfriday tomorrow. I just saw it mentioned on Twitter, it was posted earlier this afternoon. Anyone here feeling inspired should try to participate tomorrow - let's have some fun!
