Well, it’s Den and Katherine Wells, the Richard Corben characters!  I’ve always loved the older Heavy Metal magazines.  Richard Corben always had a unique look to his artwork and hey, “Den” was a good story to boot!   I was inspired to work on my own take on his characters and this is the result.  Perhaps I could have called the image “Big Boob Alert”, but compared to the luggage that Corben had Kath toting around, I think I erred toward the modest side of things.  If the word “modest” can even be used when discussing this image.  Well of course it can, as in the comic, Den usually walked around in the altogether.  Here, I decided to follow the lead from the Heavy Metal movie when Den says, “there was no way I was going to walk around this place with my dork hanging out!”  John Candy, the voice behind Den in the movie had some great delivery, too.

Thus, the loincloth. 

Related note:  A year ago, my computer melted down and I lost some work.  One image I had in progress was another character from the Heavy Metal movie, Taarna.  Lost all of it.  But it was fun to work on, and I want to get back to it.  It was a bit different from what I usually do, as in a “she was seriously kicking some ass” kind of way.  So I must get back to it.

But for now, time to get back to some work on another jungle image.  Something to do with a woman and a snake.  Or something.
