Artist's Comments

After a hard days work protecting or victimizing the innocent, there's nothing the heroes and villains of Earth like more then to stop off at a trendy intradimensional ski chalet for a bit of rest, relaxation, and fun under an alien sky.

This is a commissioned piece from *Dark-Ether featuring his two characters, Ms. Frost and Tanks 4D Memories, and a whole slew of other cameos from the CoH forums.

While this one gave me a bit of a headache working on, I did manage to cram more people who are, hopefully, recognizable into the background as i painted it. I just kept finding little open spaces and deciding that i could squeeze just one more in there and still, in the end, i feel like I left some folks out.

Medium: pen and ink, watercolor, and a dab of gouache on 300lbs hot pressed watercolor paper.

As I said over on Dark Ether's page, I love pieces like this. Your attention to detail is what makes your pictures so great....

Plus it reminds me of old beer commercials, which is cool too.

As for TL taking snapshots of Rowr and Valk on the sly...do I really come off that pervy/stalkerish? =D

So many Cameos, good as always Graver. Like ive always said its all the small details in your art that add to each piece. Can spend so much time looking into the background and always seeing something new.
