Avengers Assemble! Saturday Night Art Jam by Art Jammers
The Premise: Saturday Night Art Jam.
The Theme: The Avengers!
The Peeps: Illustrators invited by Kelvin Chan of ROCKETRAYGUN!
I use the term "illustrators" loosely, particularly because somehow I was a part of the mix, and compared to the rest of the luminaries involved in this? "Amateur" does not even cut close! Regardless, I was game for it and I chose THE VISION - primarily because I reckon I could do a less "humanoid" version of him (I did mention my anatomy sucked, right?) and here is the result! Not exactly my finest sketchery-moment here, I readily admit .. and then I had to go add dark shadows to him - in a vain attempt to create "depth" - and ended up with a mess of black-goo with no apparent motivation beyond, well, being 'black-goo'!

And of course I HAD to add color to it - to somehow cover for my mistakes (and yes, to make myself feel better) but alas the black-goo version is the one to be utilized instead. Nevertheless, these images shown below were contributed by the "Art Jammers" (Yes, a new FB-group has been created for this premise!) and I do not blame you one finetip-brush-bit if some of the illustrations leaves your collective-mouths agape!

Shown directly above was the rough sketch in which contributors were to have lined-up their illustrations - and as well an idea into the concept of this "Art Jam" - to which Kelvin then triumphantly montaged into a single final image, shown below. In total 13 folks answered the call for AVENGERS ASSEMBLE! And as an obvious outsider-looking-in, this was a blast!
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome the Art Jammers!
