Description Reference pic for Leo. I'm still updating the cast section of the webcomic. [link]

The idea here is that they are posing for publicity shots and some of them are way more into it than others which is why Taurus was so excited and Leo looks like he would rather be anywhere else.

Enjoy!

Your art style and interpretation of the zodiac is truly awesome!!! But...I can't help but feel that Aries' and Leo's personalties and powers have been switched almost. Usually, it's Leo that's said to be the more light hearted, generous (ruled by the Sun) of the two and Aries is the impulsive, stern (ruled by Mars) aggressive one. Leo is also the one not to give up and is quite stubborn (being a fixed sign) while Aries gets bored easily and doesn't usually stay with something to the end although he's good at initiating (being a cardinal sign). So out of curiosity, any reason why you chose them to be this way?

He still sounds like Red vs. Blue's 'Sarge' in my mind for some reason ^_^;;

I don't play that game so I'll take your work for it. Maybe it is like the drill seargant from Full Metal Jacket. That guy is priceless.

It's not a game, but a comedy show that uses a game as the actors.

Though yeah, I can picture the sergeant from FMJ.

Very... very... bad. And you might think it would be even worse after you see what he can do in the next page (tease!).

I like Leo more and more. This does give him that "Why am I here? Everybody needs to mind their own business/stay in your own pay grade sort of feel."

This is very impressive.

Thanks! I was worried his pose was not as dynamic as taurus' but it seems to convey his character well enough.

i really love your sense of anatomy, it's really impeccable. and your style, not to mention posing is really dynamic and fluid, even in simple standing poses you can tell a lot about the character.

Heh. I can understand why Taurus would like publicity photos, she loves to show off her looks from what we've seen, whereas Leo just gets pissed at everything.

Yeah, Leo is pretty cynical about well... everything.

Heh, the drawback of working for a corporation is that publicity is practically a requirement
A good way to show the whole character as well as his personality to an extent.

I like Leo's cybernetic arms. They give me a X-Men's Colossus kinda feel without actually BEING the same kind.

You did pull off the "I'd rather be having my fangs pulled" look perfectly

That's one cool, mean lookin' mutha... I like the way he turned out, and I like how the different sections of his arms have a different metallic hue. His pants look pretty cool, too- it's not often we get to see Leo's whole person. I particularly like the rich, luminous choice of color for his golden fur- you should use this as a color guide.

Thanks. I'm actually really enjoying doing these pics. It has been a long time since I gave these characters more full color treatment. Many of them have changed dramatically since I first started doing the comic.
