What, no Ice Maiden? Man, those are cute though. I love em. You capture details surprisingly well in such tiny little things.

[Glitch Girl]

These are so cute.  Mothman is probably my favorite - I love how you did the wings.

[detourne_me]

it's funny,  if you read the latest issue of Batman, Alfred imagines what Bruce would've become if something else flew through the window...    the mothman designs are almost exact duplicates!

[UnkoMan]

If you have this issue or know where I could find scans, I'd love to see that.

[AfghanAnt]

Thanks, guys.

Ice Maiden is coming. I wasn't sure if I should make one before she was done. I am however working on the Corpse right now.

Really? I'd like to see a pic of him as well.

[AfghanAnt]

This one was a lot of fun to do. I think I might do some mainstream characters next. Thor? FemLoki? The Watchmen? Who knows.

[UnkoMan]

Whoa whoa whoa... sweet! Lookit his little cute pose. I'm going to have to start massively zooming in on these guys and checking out their details, I think.

[AfghanAnt]

I'm glad you like him. I might as well do Unkoman tonight too.

I'm going to have to start massively zooming in on these guys and checking out their details, I think.

Yeah there is a lot of detail that can't be seen directly but is needed to get something this small looking so cool.

[AfghanAnt]

So I did some owned characters and they were easy because I made these guys as smilies. I really like the way Cloak and Dagger look but I want to animate Cloak.

Spoiler

it's from Batman 682. 

Spoiler

It's from a sequence where Alfred is wondering if batman never became the bat.  but thisa is all part of some mind manipulation plot brought about by a telepath named the lump, an monkey doctor "Mr. Simyan" and another villain i don't know (but he looks like one of the sons of the bat from Miller's DKR)...still waiing on Final Crisis #6 for the finale to Batman RIP

I can't believe how much detail you pack into these tiny guys!

[Volsung]

Great work and mastery

[Swingman]

wow, cool. I especially like Cloak & Dagger. Nice little light feature on Dagger.

[AfghanAnt]

Thanks guys. I'm actually enjoying the pixel work a lot more than skinning, I think because it is so much easier to work with pixels than tgas and dds.

[UnkoMan]

After seeing it, detourne, I wouldn't say he's very similar at all. At least not any more than most moth inspired characters. There's really only so many ways you can do a moth person. I would say I was subconciously inspired by Steve Rude's The Moth more than anything.
