This picture is for slightlyjillian and is part of my ongong campaign to redraw anime characters in Marvel comic style.




Here, Kitty, Kitty
In it, Folken from Escaflowne is holding out a little offering and hoping to tempt the cat-woman twins back into his foul clutches.

Marvel comic style! Oh oh oh! I see it now. *nods* Although, I can see the Marvel!Folken tips toward movie-style!Folken. Understandably.

I was a die-hard Marvel fan in the early 90s. Of course, now I'm the k'rod sort that says, "I read comics when they were good."

Grand feet! *appreciates*

Wo---ooaholyshit that's good. I clicked on the tag, and just about choked.

I love, love, love this! Am not a huge fan of Anime, so this is rught up my alley. Coloring is wicked good, and his expression is just plain wicked. Makes me swoon, almost. I adore the costume, and am envious of your anatomy skills.

But mostly, my reaction is:

More please? :D

Ooh I love his expression and outfit!

Thanks Jillian, especially about the feet!

I can see the Marvel!Folken tips toward movie-style!Folken

He would have to, really, so that he was vaguely recognisable but he's so po-faced in the original version I wanted to see if he could do wicked.

Thanks, Cam but the colours are merely copied from the original. Personally I think his hair looks like a gas flame.

Comment much appreciated tho' what the anime fans would think I can't imagine.

That's kind...but I want to see how your Guardian of Darkness turns out!

Probably, something around the lines of:

"..."

or

"*droooooool*"

maybe it's the hair

Don't know exactly why, but the first thing I thought of when I saw him was 'Rod Stewart'

Now, of course, must find and read the story. Thanks a heap--I have a reading pile to last me till Christmas! ;)

Afraid it's not a story but one of those anime thingies. There is a website that synopsises the entire seriesand very baffling it is too with a heroine who faints at the drop of a hat! I started to draw her and one of the other male characters but she fainted again when she saw what I'd done to him!

So much to learn... I'm a bit woolheaded; just FINISHED my endless epic (wanna Beta?) and the next day-- last night-- beta-read a new novel by Sam, whose stuff is always good. This one was about Harry Potter descending, Orpheus-style, into Hell, followed by Draco, to retrieve Sirius.

I do like the man with the mouse, even though I don't know who he's offering it to or why. :)

Oh, Folken? He's sort of the baddy of the series. Has gasflame blue hair and a melancholy aspect and has two - er - twin cat women, with cute little ears and tails, who - er - do his bidding. What else would he offer other than a mouse?
Beta-reading new epic? Heck yes. My speciality. I'm one of the betas for Anise with Jewel of the Harem - I've been at it for over a year and we've almost finished book one. Some of her chapters are longer than the whole of some of my stories! At this rate I'll be fifty before the fic is finished!
My own (very short) epic has been planned, the ballads selected and a fluent Scots speaker recruited to whip my dialogue into shape. The adventures of young Davy Black(raw magical talent and deadly hand with a rapier) and his sidekick Thomas de Cantilupe (failed wizard and would be poet) are taking shape.
