There are times where you get an idea in your head, and that idea takes a life of its own. This was the result of a drawing challenge I took part in. The theme was "superheroes."
The Story:
It all started as a normal crime fighting outing for team Saiyaman, protecting some unknown substance invented by one of the top scientists of the world from a gang of thieves with super powered weapons. They managed to fight off the thieves, however the battle would leave Videl gravely injured, and Gohan blaming himself for what happened to her. In the meantime, the unknown substance made its way over to Videl attempting to fix her injuries ended up being fused together with her. Later that day Saiyaman still on his guilt trip announced his retirement from crime fighting saying, “If I cannot protect my partner, I am not fit to protect this city.”
A week later those same decided to come after the heroes, they’d come after Videl first and finish the job, but to their surprise they’d find a tall blond head woman wearing Videl’s clothes waiting for them. After defeating the thieves, and dropping them off at the Police station, she’d find Gohan and reveal her miraculous recovery, new look and new powers. After a few training sessions for her to get better acquainted with her powers, she’d convince Gohan to return to crime fighting as “Captain Gold,” and after finding an old Halloween costume, she decided to become Supergirl.
I did have a good time with this one, and even though I’m not much of a writer, I did enjoy doing the story to introduce this one. I’m still disappointed that in the end I had to find a city and use that as the background instead of making my own, but things like that happen when I don’t organize my time properly.

...But not Forgotten
It’s now 10 years to the day we lost her, and I still can’t believe she’s gone.
People that know me well know that she was my favorite singer, I’ve got all her albums, a number of posters, a few calendars, pictures , wallpapers and screen savers.
For the past couple of years, I wanted to try doing caricatures of celebrities, and a few random people. After a couple of failures, I decided that to put that idea on hold until I got better at it. Earlier this year I completed a request, a caricature of singer Hayley Williams for someone on DeviantArt which I was very pleased with, and as a result I decided that I had to give this another try.

NFL Jerseys 39
I'm still having fun with this thing.
This is another request from somebody on DeviantArt. The task this time is to draw this character, Soifon of "Bleach" with a #2 49ers jersey. I actually finished this one last night, it hasn't even been posted on my page yet. I've designed this one and a few other of my recent ones after some old basketball cards that I found.

NFL Jerseys 38
It's been too long I've done regular updates, I'll need to get back into that habit again.
Here's another request from somebody on DeviantArt. The character is Rangiku Matsumoto of "Bleach" with Bruce Smith's #78 Bills jersey. The guy is a Bills fan who went through another bad season, I am glad he got something out of this.

A Year's Progress
There are times I feel that I don't get any better at drawing, then things like this come along. This was a project that I actually started on last year, but it never got completed. This was a project that I would have liked to see completed more than anything, so I started over again, doing things as I do now, and noticed the difference.
I have to say, I'm very pleased with the results on the left as compared to the one on the right. Maybe theres something to this drawing thing afterall.
