The 80’s Inspired Art Take 2

Ah, yes, time again for more art.

This time we’re taking a look at Storm (Ororo Munroe from X-Men for those of you who aren’t quite sure) alongside her beau from that time period, Forge.  Man, I miss these two as a couple.  Their breakup was so bittersweet and “wtf” inducing.

I always had a soft spot for the Storm Mohawk look.  It was trendy, daring, especially during a time when most of the women were wearing less clothes to look ’sexy’.  Quite frankly, I think the mohawk made Storm MORE sexy, because it was a hair-do that she pulled off with her trademark grace and goddess-like demeanor.

The next art post will probably be a whole slew of 80’s inspired fashion stuff… mainly because Halloween is slowly approaching and wouldn’t we all like some costume ideas!  Maybe Jem and the Holograms as the subject matter?  Who knows?  I suppose you’ll have to come back to see.

80’s Inspired Art

So sometimes I draw stuff.  Go figure!

Today I was trying to figure out some more stuff to add to this lovely site here, and it occured to me to put some new pictures.  Only problem with that is that I don’t exactly have too many things to scan up that are 80’s related.  But then I remembered I draw so there!  Problem solved.

For those of you who don’t know, the X-Men comic has been around since 1963 and their team members have gone through an array of costume changes throughout the decades.  The character shown here is Rogue, most noted for the white stripe in her hair and southern accent but also known for using costumes that cover her full body.  Though this one is a waist up shot, the full costume consisted of a full length black body suit, a short shirt that hung off one shoulder, thigh high boots, a pair of gloves, and two white belts that sort of hung sideways off either side of her hip.  Gotta love those 80’s aerobic inspired uniforms.

Possibly more art to come (anything to add content, right?) but for now, you get one.  I’m seriously debating Jem and the Holograms pictures because it is lacking on the net in general.
