Description
Hello there, watchers and watcherettes!This is yet another one in what might become a LONG list of MINIMiniMasterpieces, courtesy of . He commissioned me a couple of days ago and I couldn't resist, so I snugged two of these small pieces for him in-between the cavalcade of TenDollarBusts I'm sketching (yes, guys, I'm almost there!).
Mercury from the X-Men was one of his choices and so here she is in all her metallic glory. I rather enjoyed depicting her, since metallics are my thing (or so I'd like to believe) and I got to throw in a little homage to T2 what with her powers described as similar to the infamous T-1000. The bullet holes and the long blade are kudos to Robert Patrick and James Cameron
So, I hope you like these little detours and see you all very soon!
Nic.-

Thank you so very much, my friend! I hope your patience has not been worn so thin on your commissions, which I will finish shortly. This year will see me completing a LOT of overdue images, including yours.

Guau. Realmente asombroso. Y exclentes esas pequeΓ±as referencias al T-1000.
SerΓa asombroso que hicieras a Dust (aunque su diseΓ±o es terriblemente simple).

I picked up on the T2 reference with the blade like forearms, nice touch though really adds to the piece.

Mercury is my favorite New X-Men character. Great work!

Girls made of metal, wouldn't mind that too terribly much.

I've always liked this characters visual design, despite knowing nothing about her, so it's really cool to see you lend your pencils to a rendering of her. I really like the details of the bullet imbedding in her skin.

Wow I love her. I'm so glad I decided to have you do her. She will be the first mercury picture for my collection. Yay!

I'm starting the collection?
I'm glad you liked her, Jamie. It seems evryone else has to and the nods to T2 were cool easter eggs for those 'in the know' ...

mate...that just cries for some terminator 2 related pic...hell i'd pay you if i had the cash to do so just to see that happen
The T1000 would work so well with the same 'pitted' effect you got going there
