Imra Ardeen - Tumblr Posts
hi :^) i want to challenge myself to draw more again so i am going to try to do a month long challenge. it is the le-june of superheroes and i will try to draw a legionnaire a day
maybe with design notes, because i've wanted to share my ideas behind my losh redesigns for a long while
saturn girl!
this one is based fairly heavily on the cartoon design, especially that one piece of concept art where she had a pink streak in her hair. i decided to flip that to make her a little more monochrome and to fit my biggest goal for a LOT of these designs:
to make them more alien looking!
imra's cartoon design already had the vulcan ears, and i added a little bit of a gray alien look to that. the blank, dark eyes work well for giving her a little bit of uncanny mystique, and making her a little spindly and long-limbed emphasizes the fact that she fights with her brain
the big ring skirt is mostly just a self-indulgence, but i also wanted to tie into some older costumes where she has skirts!
and finally, the pink is just because it looks cute on her <3
For @loshappreciationweek Day 3: With Great Power Comes Great Perks
So, I've been meaning to draw some fanart for this show ever since I rewatched it around christmas. It used to be one of my favorite cartoons as a kid, and my first introduction to the DC universe and I love saturn girl a lot.
(Ok, admittedly I'm not sure if this fits the promt 100% because I had already done the sketch before finding out about the week. So it's more about the power than the perks haha.)

Rokk Krin was a space explorer from a distant galaxy whose one-man vessel was snared by a black hole. For eons he was held on event horizon, although to him it felt like a few hours. He witnessed the birth and death of stars. He lost consciousness as he fell into the black hole he lost, and when he woke he found himself in our galaxy in the Earth AI time period of the 31st Century, his body aged backwards to late adolescence.
Rokk soon discovered that as a result of his incredible journey through the black hole, he had gained the ability to create and control magnetic force. His fantastic adventure inspired him to call himself "Cosmic Boy".
Shortly after, on a shuttlecraft in the Sol system, Rokk helped to save quadrillionaire R.J. Brande from terrorists. A gratified Brande invited Rokk and the two others who teamed with him, Irma Ardeen and Garth Ranzz, to form a special ops team, the Legion of Super-Heroes which was later chartered by the UP as its membership mushroomed.
