Impro X - Sci Fi - 3 pages from Hawk for Dot Warner
"Here's three more pages. It was hard, but it was so much fun! Now I'm craving to see where the story goes from here."

Impro Y - Fantasy Horror - 3 pages from Modesty for Darksortie
"Five pages for the Impromanga are here. It's suppose to be for Darksortie but most everybody's in there. I decided on going all out crazy with super-deformed characters. And lo! It's good and funny. I hope no one is left confused badly and everyone is left entertained. Sorry I didn't do my usual coloring, just didn't have the patience. Now you get to see Lucifer's truly immature nature. ^_^"

" sabin"
" well to make up for my late entries... i took my time to make an early submission. this time i decided to use only pencil to make it look really grayscale(and suppositly scary) my scanner isn't really good so i think it didn't catch some of my lighter pencil marks..." monica's website

Dot Warner's picture of M-chan's Lucian
" The Tide Rises, the Tide Falls"
" Originally the picture was just Lucian's 'self-portrait' in the sand, but I decided to add Lucian in there, too. I didn't quite expect the watercolors to make the picture look so wistful, but I like the result." Dot Warner's website

Darksortie's picture of Hinode's Fiona
" Fiona relaxing on a hot summer day with a glass of lemonade. " Darksortie's website

Mandy's picture of Chaypeta's Gwen Freeman
" Gwen "
" I really like the look of Gwen. I just wish my picture of her did her justice! I was trying some new techniques in this one." Mandy's website

Maggie Griffin's picture of Modesty's Nali
" Nali"
" Here's Nali, drawn as best to the likeness of her on the cast page. Unfortunately, it wouldn't load up her individual character page for some reason, so I had to go with that. Oh well XD Enjoy." Maggie Griffin's website

d-lemur's picture of bunny h's Bryan & Cresendo
" natural pink"
" Wow, let me count the experiments on THIS peice! 1-watercolored pencils used, which actually made the paper a wee bit warped. 2-Skin tones...god knows I hate 'em. 3-shine/highlight in the hair. 4-absolutly no computer work what-so-ever, other then scaning and shrinking that is. I'm not happy with the way it looks on the computer, though, in real life its alot better. Oh well, live, learn and then get luvs." d-lemur's website

Sonia's picture of K.Mai's Nomiko
" Oh no! The hair was supposed to be brown. That's what you get for printing out your reference image in black and white X__x. I hope you still like her, K.Mai." Sonia's website

M-chan's picture of Bex's Edgar Truitt
" Edgar falls Victim ..."
" And alas, so Edgar of Bex' wonderfully humourous 'Grand Blue Door' falls victim to my scheme of turning everybody's male characters from perfectly normal good-looking chaps into bishounen. Ahem. Hope Bex won't mind too much. Edgar is relaxing after a long day's work. Oh, and don't mind the hand ..." M-chan's website

Anke's picture of Hawk's Sven
" meh... monkey who likes opera... o_O" Anke's website

A. Twu's picture of D-Lemur's Harex
" At the Demon Gate"
" I took the quiz on the Demon Gate site and it identified me as being most like Harex, so I chose to draw him. The real star of the picture of course though is the Demon Gate itself, a portal guarded by stone dragons, linking the demon world with the human world." A. Twu's website

Bunny H's picture of Meg's Kyle
" Explosives Ordenence Disposal"
" Well I drew 'im in computer science and thought it turned out crafty. Oh where oh where is he going to stuff that cartoon bomb?" Bunny H's website

ChayPeta's picture of Lao_Z's Toni Sizaki
" Toni"
" I aimed to make him appear like something you'd see on a Saturday morning cartoon. The cell shading is very rough I'm afraid due to serious time constraints. Hope it's okay." ChayPeta's website

Hinode's picture of Mindy's Audra
" Audra's such a pretty character and no one had drawn her yet. " Hinode's website

Bex's picture of Tranquil's Mayflower
" Mayflower"
" Here's Mayflower. I once saw a graphic by Adam Hughes where all he colored in what the woman's skin, and left everything else: clothes, hair, helmet, blank and white. Always wanted to try it." Bex's website

Meg's picture of Xalan's Basil
"..." Meg's website

Uncreativity's picture of Anke's
" Rufus himself is done in pastels, a rarity for me. I figured a two-headed dog would need a special doghouse. ^_^" Uncreativity's website

Tranquil's picture of Fenrir's Nathan and Misty
" Just Business"
" Hmm well I guess I wanted to show the sister and brother team so here it is." Tranquil's website

Stareyes's picture of Monica's Sheria
" No comments, except that I am drained this round. " Stareyes's website

Xalan's picture of Stareyes's Phillee
"I was going to draw a different character, but Phillee just begged to be drawn. She is such an awesome character, and is very well developed as a character. (and the colors, how could I resist drawing someone with her coloring?!) And I had such fun rereading Stareyes' manga! Kudos to you! ^_^" Xalan's website

K.Mai's picture of Maggie's Heart
" Heart"
"Rather interesting character, an off the wall lunatic. My kind of person if you ask me. Speaking of lunatics I still have no scanner but I do have my mouse. Anyway, initially I had a rather crazed look in her eyes, however with clean up and colouring it somehow managed to elude me. I hope you like this one Maggie." K.Mai's website

Arania's picture of Sonia's Heart
" Heart"
"Sorry this is SOOO late, Sonia! I got really swept up in things this month - personal issues and other commitments, and wasn\'t expecting to be signed up for MAX this round - but! I really wanted to get your picture out to you as it\'s not your fault - here\'s my take on Undine - and one of my first pieces in photoshop with my new tablet :3" Arania's website
