For the second open assignment for Cover to Cover, I decided to do a comic that my friends Keith and Art had developed, initially as a joke. The premise was to do the most manly over the top character. They came up with Lance Thunder and the Megariders. He rode monster trucks like steeds, wielded a chainsaw, and was just generally the most manly barbarian ever.
This was the initial pencils I did and posted on my DeviantArt page:

I did a pretty quick digital paint job for class, but a friend showed the pencils to a friend who showed it to friend, and I was contacted by the ABC TV show
DirtySexyMoney to ask if they could use it in an upcoming show. Apparently Donald Sutherland's kid in the show had a stack of comic books and they wanted to use Lance on top. So I asked my friends
Chris McInerney and
Erica Henderson if they'd take swings at coloring it. Ultimately the show ended up choosing Erica's version, but here are both.
Chris's:

And Erica's:

Also about the same time I worked on the poster for our Senior Show. Our Senior Show consisted of Katherine Batiste, myself, Rory Keller,
Angela Gram, Keith Grassmick, Art Wu, and Stephanie Olesh.
