"Fear Nothing" ("Tomb Raider")
Lara Croft (c) Eidos/Squaresoft
This is just one of those times when planning and execution came out exactly as it supposed to be. When Jake first talked about some huge Summer Blockbuster Gallery, I tried to rack my brain on a film I could do solo. While there were a lot of flicks I thought I would dig, nothing jumped out at me. And since I really suck at drawing women, Tomb Raider was just about the last film I thought I would do. Then, BOOM! An image came into my head: poses, coloring, background - everything!
So, I sat down, sketched a few test prints, and drew up the final drawing. I was going to put it aside, thinking I would get around to coloring it all later (this was back in April, and the flick's release date was still a few months off), but the pic just kept bugging me. So, I wound up finishing it all right there. And to my satisfaction, it ended up exactly as I pictured it. - Tony
