Description This have been a fun one! Some days ago i watched this video on youtube: [link] (again) and i decided to make a **FAKE** comic cover featuring Puppet Angel. I drew the puppet using a frame capture as reference for the head, hands and sword.

Then i thought that would be funny to turn this imaginary series into something like Charlie's Angels with 4 buffyverse females characters, and this is the result. The curious thing is that i had an even weirder idea for a Buffy-Angel crossover cover months ago, but this one came out first, maybe some day...

The technique is the same as always, traced photos (except the puppet) and then i painted the values for all the characters, added some fog effect with a soft brush, and finally i used some layers to add colors.

While painting the values I used a hard brush with a 30% opacity and 100% flow almost all the time, except for the hair where i used a 50-60% opacity brush. Normally i tend to vary the opacity alot while i'm working, but this time i tried to stick to certain values.

The addition of the title, barcode, etc is just a joke, no copyright infringement intended.

Side by Side:


Well, i hope you like it. Any comment, fave or watch will be very appreciated!

I love the musical too. Actually the idea of a Buffy-Angel crossover i mentioned on the description is about the musical episode.

(sorry for the delay on the answer)
