Hm. Seems like a lot was lost between the She-Hulk drawing and the
sketch. Much like what seems to happen with so many of the drawings
Adam Hughes has done, when they are translated to 3D.

(Not sure about Raven rising from a mound of croissants, either. . . )

JB... I know what you mean, unfortunately not everything that works or looks good in 2D works the same way in 3D, much as I would wish otherwise, especially when limitations of molding and casting are thrown into the mix.

LOL .. the croissants are going to be cast in clear purple resin and the edges will be touched with just a tinge of lighter purple ... turning fire, smoke and clouds into 3D renderings is really tough, which is why I wanted to try tackling Firestorm first.

that She-Hulk sketch is awesome, Jesse.   You should draw comics.

^ Congrats on that getting that TB 3!  She's a beauty!

Was at my LCS yesterday, and got a bit of a surprise seeing these on the shelves (have not made the jump to digital camera yet, so scans ya get):

New addition my growing army of TOS-style Centurions. 

Also noticed [BSG Season 4.5 spoiler] my LCS had a Lee Adama / Dualla combo action figure set, which in context to what happen in the opener, is just sad...

Nice model of T3. Not a big fan of that particular design, tho, or really any
of the other Thunderbirds except 2.

Wish these guys would do a large scale Fireball XL-5!
