I've been trying to plow through as many commissions as possible before I go back to "insane" mode for my next big Marvel project. The latest one features Emma Frost, a.k.a. the White Queen. She is what I like to call "fun to look at." As such, I got a little carried away with the rendering. For instance, I didn't know I was such a fan of corsets — now I know. In addition, the client sprung for a little extra to get a more detailed background.

By the way, the fireplace set is there to help her tend the "Hellfire."

  6. Ho. Ly. (explitive deleted)! That is amazing. I don't think I've ever seen you do such a highly rendered piece. This is right up there with Vargas and Elvgren, man.
