alrite so week 7 is upon us :lml-: ...and in the spirit of valentine's day i have assembled a collection of the hottest(well hot for golden age that is :cool:) heroines-bit of a special week and i hope i haven't used all the girl characters ^^;...:D.

backgrounder:
something i have been meaning to get at for awhile(pondered a sketch a day with these characters :omg: ) is drawing/reinventing these old public domain heroes here- http://pdsh.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Characters . format will be three characters per week and any and all are welcome to join :pj: .

new topic will be on saturday :lml-:, keep in mind with these characters most of them are golden age and there will be little to no reference(maybe just one pic) so use your imagination and do what you want, a faithful recreation or reinvent the character entirely.

black venus, black cat, and fantomah :skull:...:D are week 7 pdcsg characters:

black venus's page is here-http://pdsh.wikia.com/wiki/Black_Venus

These looks like some good selections this week, Selkirk! Can't wait to draw a couple of these...

This one was done quickly and looks like it. Some overdeveloped calves on this one, :D....

See scmarooney, that's what happens when characters spend too much time on the StairMaster.

Anyway - here's my tribute to Black Venus:

Thanks, Nellie, I knew you could come up with a reason (other than my poor attention to anatomy) for those calves :)!

Great drawing, Ekotek, I like yours way better than mine! I would have had one for the Black Cat character tonight, but I badly messed it up and spilled ink on my drawing board :(. Maybe tomorrow!

Great job on that Black Cat drawing, Klortho! Very realistic, looks like she could step right off the page!

Here's one (or two) for the Fantomah character:

Tricky pose chuckcamo, grats:-) Grats for everyone else as well! Ekotek's venus is my fav so far, so I just check how you did the rendering there and my latex-whatever-suit Venus will soon follow:-)

I still struggled a lot with rendering (ekotek's pic didn't really help in my composition however good it is...).

Story:
So, my Venus went a step farther then the original one. She took the best disguise she could to infiltrate the strongest Japanese base and get close to Yamato, which meant even going under facial plastic surgery (hopefully it worked cause I have never drawn an oriental person). And, in the end he used the glass shards as it had been written long ago (40 years, is it?), but it was not from her googles but from Yamato's, which she had punctured before with a 9 inch nail (this alone should have done the work since he had been wearing them at that time). But nevertheless, shards were forced down that throat. So story ends, works done, although nobody knows how she got out of the Japanese base.

Just an idea for Fantomah. (Okey, originally she was my concept for Black Venus, but as the face took shape I found it more fitting for a more savage-kind of person and Fantomah is that kind of hero and also from Africa. Match!:-)
