SciFi and Fantasy Art Three Post-Modern Vampires by Paul Baxter

These characters were created by myself and a couple of my friends, but none of us had a clear image of how they looked. Okay, so none of the characters -- least of all mine -- came out the way their creators imagined them, but who cares?

From upper left, going clockwise, they are: Tricksy (as in 'wicked tricksy false') the hacker, DZJ ('Dizzy Jay') the DJ and info broaker, and Sid (full name being Sidney Engel McCool) the schizoid paparazzo..

I went with a more cyber-punk feel for these three than we originally conceived, but it works. At least I think so.

Oh, by the way, Tricksy's tee-shirt reads: Hackers have the best hardware. And Jay's shirt ought to be read 'Nude Skunk,' not 'new skunk dee.'

Original ink on paper, 11 x 17 inches.

4 Jun 2003	Maya R. Hirschman	Loading... fist comment boogie ! Hah ! Awesome characters ! They look like they'd be pretty comfortable hanging out with my character, Trojan. The clothes are great, the posing is super - they look like absolutely real people with nice, real bodies. Rock on. Clicking the random picture button is great.
16 Jul 2003	Sidney Engle McCool	Loading... What really buffs my wagon is that Jay and Trix both get really cool t-shirts and I just get stuck with a pair of tights that look like they were sewn from the arms of Waldo's (as in Where's...) shirt. P-faw! What do I look like, Rainbo Brite? Meanwhile, I would like to have on my t-shirt a picture of a smiley faced chicken. The caption on the back must read: "Vegetarian Friendly." HA! HAW HAW HAW! Now THAT'S a good t-shirt! Paul Baxter replies: "Oh, boo-freakin-hoo. You'll look like a reject from Strawberry Shortcake and like it! Grrrr...(See, I can be scary when I wanna be.)"
27 Apr 2004	Natalie Paquette	Loading... Excellent posing - they all look very natural. Do you use models or photos for reference? - I'm noticing a trend, though, that the heads and hands you draw are slightly too small for the frames; I often draw heads too big. ^-^ .. and hide hands instead of drawing them. (So lazy.)
