This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

The long story:

I named my company Sivlerlion Studios because of a superhero I created for a playtest of a now defunct game (Silver Age Sentinels) the character evolved to be played in Freedom Force, and as time rolled around, I became more and more fond of the old chap. He's my ideal superhero for a tabletop game. If I ever get someone else to run a dfully serious superhero game where he'd "fit." Maybe someday, I'll have the money to do a comic based on him.


Now I'm not a professional in anyway but I get inspired to try and do artwork of my own, from the inspiration of others.


Since we don't have a general (but still game related) babble thread  here is the latest attempt to do a picture of my favorite character.

Ah, black and silver.  For some reason I always liked that color combination for a superhero too.  

When I designed Wavelength back in the mid 80s, his costume was predominately silver with black sides.  Most of the other characters of X-Force (this was before the Marvel comic of the same name) had a color scheme of black with silver accents.

Wavelength became Waveshock in City of Heroes because his name was already taken.  I've learned to like the name Waveshock better.  I was able to recreate my general idea of Wavelength's costume well enough.  Silver was replaced by white, and I reversed the color priority (mainly black instead of mainly silver) because I thought it looked better that way when I finally saw it graphics instead of my scribblings.  But Waveshock is pretty damn close to how I always imagined him.
