Lila Magnussen, also known as Scorcher. Long story behind this particular reluctant villain... Scorcher's a 'Speedster', meaning she is incredibly fast (can actually run on water and up smooth surfaces), and does in fact leave a trail of flame behind her when she runs (didn't put that into the picture, sorry). She can also project bolts of thermal energy, although that has not been dealt with in game. Colored in Photoshop on a Power Macintosh.

Ooooo, I like this one. (not as cute as your SSC girls...hehehe) I have a hard time with dynamic poses myself. *sigh* Ah well. Like the green =)

I like the green, too, which is why I didn't put her in red, like so many other Speedsters end up in. =)

Green means go... Ok Carrie, think clearly now... She's cool. I like her hair, and also the way she's looking behind her. Great job on the color, too. *peace*

There's a problem with the shoulder on the leading arm, and I've been seeing it ever since I did this piece... but yes, Carrie... Green definately means GO! for Scorcher. =) 'bout time someone picked up on that.

Hey, folks, it's that guy from the unnamed, ever-changing-alias AOL IP! I really wish he'd tell me who the zarking frack he is... If you're looking for Nike, she's about seven images to the left, I think.

Wow..this is one of my favorites in this gallery. Her pose is really nice. The coloring is too..and her face is one of the best I've seen. I'd point out that the foot on the ground..is..either not arched enough or too big compared to the other one. And one of the arms is too thin.

Um nice job but i have one question. What are her shoes made of? If she is moving so fast that the force of her feet rubbing the ground actually burns the ground, wouldn't her shoes burn up too?

:-) James Milligan replies: "That would be "Comic Book Super Material", otherwise known as "Unobtanium" or something equally silly. It's not supposed to obey the laws of physics, because, well, it's a game, y'know? If you really need to get physics into the question, you could go with the same reason that none of the "Flash Family" in DC Comic-dom ever lose their shoes: they actually run on a cushion of air.But, I choose the "Comic Book Fantasy" angle. 2"

Well actually the Flash, and most of the members of the flash family don't run on air. They just move at such a great speed their feet simply phase into the ground. And shoe wise well their uniforms were made t adapt to all their abilities such as speed, and the such. Just a little info on the speedsters of D.C. And the pic is really well done, but i was wondering her torso and breast seem to not fit the pic right. What i mean is some of the lines look different and do not have the lighting done do enhance her body shape such as muscle, and the sort. But besides my little nit pick stuff it looks good. It also looks a lot like Jesse Quick from D.C the one that became the flash for a brief period of time.

:-) James Milligan replies: "Um, sorry, but you're actually wrong. They've repeatedly said in the Flash and Impulse and Young Justice books of late that all the members of the Flash Family run on cushions of air. While your example may have once been correct, the current DC continuity doesn't support it. Glad you like the pic, however! 2"

:-) James Milligan replies: "You think so? *looks at it* Yeah, I suppose it is, huh? Thanks!"
