He-Man vs. Beastman

**Lee-Man** · June 24, 2008, 03:15pm

I figured He-Man would need to be doing battle with someone, so I added Beastman to the piece I posted in the movie redesign thread.

Might as well repost the originals as well.

Mike Magnola!!! That's you you remind me of!

like it! But I think you could've given Beastman some of his recognisable gear!
He could be anything as he is!

**Lee-Man** · June 24, 2008, 05:56pm

Yeah, I certainly owe Mignola some royalties!

As for Beastman, I've always liked the idea of Beastman as a barely tamed missing link of Eternia that Skeletor unleashes on He-Man from time to time. I realize this is not canon from any MOTU incarnation, but that's just the way I've always thought he should be done. Which is why I've drawn him 2 to 3 times He-Man's size.

Looks awesome man! :-)

Yeah, he looks a lot like Byte.

If I draw Beastman again I might add some of his armor, but in the meantime we can consider this "Savage Beastman" maybe before he was domesticated by Skeletor

Also, I don't know who Byte is, you're gonna have to help out on that one.

More fan-art from me. Whiplash was always my favorite Evil Warrior, but that's probably because I was also obsessed with anything green and covered in scales.
Let me know what you guys think about this one. Does Whiplash read easier than my earlier Beastman?

**Predabot** · June 27, 2008, 10:55am

Oh yeah, your Whiplash registers immediately, and it's got some great dynamic to it. Both in shadows and movement.

Can't wait to see your possible Hordak and Skeletor. Or the terrifying Snake Face.

**j-bird** · June 27, 2008, 12:32pm

Yeah, your Whiplash is clearly Whiplash. I enjoy how you used "classic-toy" Whiplash as well.

**Eamon** · June 27, 2008, 03:00pm

Another great one!

Yes, that is clearly Whiplash!

Were you planning on doing anything with that sky?

**Patreek** · June 27, 2008, 06:17pm

awesome! this one is even better!

You're probably right about the sky. I threw a quick gradient back there to get something done, but it could certainly use some clouds or texture to make it a bit more visually interesting.
Thanks all.

With some more refinements and a little more work, I'd happily read a MOTU comic in this style.

Have you ever read Thrud the Barbarian?

If you could procure me the rights from Mattel I would be on board! Maybe I could do the adventures of Man-He who fights the evil forces of SkelaDor

I hadn't seen Thrud, thanks for pointing me in that direction. I thought I had a handle on all the comic book barbarians.

**Eamon** · June 30, 2008, 05:50pm

There's nothing stopping you from doing a MOTU comic as a portfolio piece. As long as you don't sell any, it won't raise any eyebrows.

**oICEMANo** · July 1, 2008, 02:57am

I loved the effects you had in the first He-Man pic you did. I think something similar in the Whiplash pic would be sweet.

**Lee-Man** · July 2, 2008, 12:22pm

Eamon: I might be persuaded into doing a couple of pages

Iceman: I'm not sure what you mean by "effects." Are you referring to the background elements in the first pic?

Below is some quick color I threw on a sketchbook page full of Skeletors? I'm partial to the one holding the havoc staff.

**Baena** · July 2, 2008, 04:17pm

Where were you for our Mignola Halloween Fan Art project?!

Great stuff! Keep it comin'!

I would have loved to help out on that, it looked fantastic, but I think at the time I was getting 3 hours of sleep due to my new baby girl.

I put a background behind one of the Skeletors-

**Patreek** · July 2, 2008, 07:45pm

again, awesomE! and happy bday dude ;-)

**Tyger** · July 3, 2008, 02:26am

Cool stuff Lee-Man. It's always nice to see new styles and concepts in the Fan-Art Forum.

Yeah the background elements.

I think I saw Hellboy lurking in the background.

**j-bird** · July 3, 2008, 09:24pm

I am really enjoying your Mignola-esque style - keep 'em coming!

**Lee-Man** · July 17, 2008, 05:17pm

Mer-Man's turn. As always, these are after Mike Mignola...
