Description
Original Sketch: fav.me/d6whu0a
*****
Name: Jaden "Jade" Go
Age: 1 Year (Chronologically)
16 Years (Biologically)
Species: Human Mutant (Clone)
Powers/Abilities: Expert Martial Artist
Strategist/Tactician
Energy Generation/Manipulation
Enhanced Endurance
Family: Shego (Genetic Template/Biological Mother)
Hego (Uncle)
Friends: Joss Possible (Best Friend/Love Interest)
Olivia Hackwrench (Friend)
Bio: Jade is a real complicated character.
At first glance, he resembles a younger, 'male' version of the known supercriminal Shego
(and, could very well pass off as her ligitiment offspring)
but, the truth in his identity and connection to Shego is far more Stranger..
Jade is actually the only successful outcome of a secret project to clone Shego
(intentions are unknown, but the speculated purpose is an Army of Superpowers Super Soldiers)
as previous attempts to create a Perfect FEMALE Clone all ended in failure..
forcing the mastermind(s) behind the experiment to try for a MALE Clone.
Prior to his name, Jade's only known alias was "S-25" (Shego - 25, or 25th Shego Clone)
but, has since gone by the name "Jayden" to aquire some human identity.
Jade's past remains a blur,
though, given he was artificially created..there may not be much to go by, anyhow.
what IS known is that he was grown in a lab,
endured harsh (even Cruel) treatment, and eventually escaped
destroying the whole cloning facility in the process..
Initially, Jade wanted to confront Shego, his genetic template.
believing SHE might be behind his creation (and, most likely to blame for his suffering)
but, this single minded goal was sidelined upon meeting Joss Possible,
the teenage cousin of world renound hero KIM POSSIBLE (and, the arch-nemesis of Shego)
Unlike his "mother", Jade has some sense of Justice and Virtue.
though, he persues it in a way that at times seems more criminal, than traditional "superheroing"
his activtites and behavior has caught the attention of Global Justice,
the international Anti-Terrorism/Anti-Crime organasation, who WANT Jade as an agent.
Jade, however, prefers to work with Joss,
whom he has embraced as a True Friend, Partner..and, possible Girlfriend
(both Kim and Shego have mixed feelings regarding they're relationship.)
It is only a matter of time before Jade and Shego meet.
and, NO ONE wants to even think of that outcome.
*****
The colored version of a lineart that I previously did.
I took the time to color this one, as I felt the idea that Jade is a clone of Shego,
would ONLY have that much relevance if one could see their hair, Skin and Clothing coloration is the same.
Anyhow, in terms of Character,
the story of Jade Go is a special one in my heart.
In that I based his origins off of Shego's often quoted line of "NO CLONES!!"
but, spun it to be a reverse Parallel to Wolverine/X-23 (as I previously stated)
I also like the idea of Shego's Clone/Son being in a relationship,
with Kim Possible's cousin, Joss Possible (who is by now a teenager, and Jade's "age")
the idea seems like Romeo & Juliet.
as Kim and Shego HATE each other, yet members of their families are engaged romanticly.
and, really, this is just a fine story of a Supervillain,
struggling with Parenthood, and how her criminal lifestyle might be straining their relationship.
Jade himself is the perfect fusion of Villain Shego and Superhero Team Go.
in that he is a superhero crime fighter..but, acts more like a vigilante,
prefering to behave as if he WERE a villain like Shego towards the Criminal and Corrupt.
sort of like a deviation from Adam West Batman,
and, adapting straight to Frank Miller or Paul Dini's Batman.

Very nice work my friend. I like how you use the different shades of green in your art and put a bit of yellowish green as a skin color. And I also like the fact that you have colored outlines. That's something I can't really do, I always stay with black outlines. But with this picture, the colored outlines are much better and you knew how to do it. Also the ectoplasm (?) or energy cells or green fog coming out of his hand is very well done. The whole pic reminds me of Danny Phantom, just it's done better cause this character has a good shaped head, not like Danny.

It wasn't too hard to do.
as the character is a male clone of a canon character,
I needed to only use Shego herself as reference for Jade's design.
as you can see from this screencap: static3.wikia.nocookie.net/__c…
I made an effort to make Jade look as much like Shego does as possible.
I am going to assume you've never seen Kim Possible,
so, I will explain that the energy is part of a multicolored "Glow" from an irradiated comet.
It struck Shego and her brothers when they were children,
and, both attained a different superpower and colored coded energy
(for instance, Shego's eldest brother, Hego has blue energy)
as Jade is a clone, he has the same energy as Shego.
(Energy is ALWAYS the hardest to do.
so, whenever I draw a character with visible energy..it takes longer to color.)

I understand now. No, I really haven't seen Kim Possible. I am not sure if it is aired here or not. I know thought that it is made by the same team as DP. I have only seen DP episodes, and some minutes from the other series made by the same team you know with the fairies and the little boy (sorry don't remember the title). It is indeed hard to draw these energy things and ectoplasm. When I color DP stuff Danny's blue energy always looks like crap. You did a great job with it.

The show ran for four seasons, and is now off the air.
episodes can now be found on Youtube and the Disney's 'video' webpage.
I know for a fact that it had a movie on DVD: 'Kim Possible: So The Drama'
which was portrayed in a manner similar to James Bond, and such.
Ironically, I have pointe out similarities between Danny Phantom and Kim Possible.
(both even have a crossover fanclub on DA.)
for one thing, Shego and Desiree look ALOT alike.

He looks like the Result of Shego having a Child with Jafar.

Jafar?!
Hmm..Eh, sorry: Don't really see it.

The Eyes and Torso Sorta Remind me of Jafar.

MetroXLR In reply to DarthScyther [2013-12-09 20:54:03 +0000 UTC]
The Eyes (like everything else) is suppose to be Shego's
and, the costume (particularly the torso), I based on Marvel's 'Wolverine' from X-Men.
so, the Jafar connection is an odd coincidence
(if he WERE a JarfarxShego child, he'd be much uglier.)

It helps that I'm using references this time,
and, not just 'Draw-and-Color-by-Memory' (which NEVER works)
the point is that I made Jade look like a legitimate KP Character,
AND, look like either Shego's Clone, Male Counterpart or actual Son (either one will do.)
the Glow Energy effect was the hardest thing to do, though.

I could imagine. Looking forward to doing this story?

Well, I have gotten messages saying my Jade Go stories have been on hiatus for TWO YEARS,
So, I figured I might as well post some new things, as what I had posted before just wasn't enough.
What are YOU hoping to see from this??

Frankly this is a wild card. Stories you've made so far you can more or less guess how they could go, and they are still kick awesome, but this I can't quite get a bead on. It's got plenty of potential.

Normally, I'd settle for sketches alone,
but, SOME drawings require color, and not just lines on paper.
For Jade Go, I felt the concept that he is Shego's Clone would translate better,
If his skin, hair, eyes and costume was colored in (using Shego's primary colors)
So, now..People know He's of Shego's blood without much description.

The colors blend in pretty well with him and the clothes.

MetroXLR In reply to The--Predator [2013-12-16 21:23:19 +0000 UTC]
That may be because I colored him according to Shego's official color design.
I figured that'd make him authentic.
