Yup, Red Sonja is going to get the star treatment this week, with entries featuring her visage by some great artists from around the world. When I saw this image during my six-degrees experiment, I got a good chuckle from the piece, but then started looking at the line and color work and knew it had to be featured on the site.
Browsing: Art Appreciation Moment of the Day
I don’t have his last name (or is it his first), as such is the secrecy that is Deviant Art. Yesterday we featured a piece by Derek Fridolfs, which was colored by Judson, so to give him his moment in the spotlight, we’re featuring an original piece by Judson, which showcases everything good about Red Sonja. Do I sense another theme for next week?
What amazes me about my little experiment is how quickly a trip down the favorites files leads to artists we’ve already featured on this site before. There’s either a really small community of people who dig on one another, or there is something about these artists that makes them rock, which is more than enough of a reason to feature them repeatedly in the Art Appreciation Moment of the Day.
Evan Shaner thinks Mitch Gerads is good enough to be featured on his favorites page, and his Wizard World Chicago Johnny Recon variant.
Evan’s been featured as an Art Appreciation Moment artist, and following the trail from yesterday, finds Evan once again making an appearance on Major Spoilers. Check out his take on the Parker character.
Yesterday’s Art Appreciation Moment of the Day, lead us to today’s entry by Renato Guedes, who’s work you may recognize from certain DC Comics covers.
Going to try an experiment this week and see where it leads us. Today’s artist is Jennyson Allan Borlongan Rosero, with this pretty cool X-Men piece. As the week progresses, I’m going to find an image in his favorites folder and use that for tomorrow’s installment. Then a favorite from that artist and so on until we reach some strange dead end or it circles back around. Ah Deviant Art, you rascal.
I didn’t intend it, but this week turned into a Women of the Marvel Universe themed Art Appreciation Moment of the Day. Thought it would be fitting to end the week with the first lady of Marvel – Sue Storm done by the late great Mike Wieringo.
The Major Spoilers Crew has been a fan of Skottie Young’s work for a while, and I happened upon this colored image of one of Skottie’s pieces featuring Psylocke and Domino.
Try doing a search for Emma Frost and not ending up with a page full of cartoon porn. It’s nice to see Jason Palmer’s rendition of Emma that keeps it classy – for all the classy Major Spoilerites.
Mark Brooks joins the growing pantheon of Art Appreciation Moment of the Day artists, and he arrives with a Wowser of a piece that he did for Heroes Con 2009.
