Your recreation photo of the yearbook cover is simply amazing!
Thanks BF. I can't believe you missed this since you've been here longer than me! I haven't done much in this thread in the last two years but went on a pretty good tear from fall 2019 to fall 2020, where this thread was my most dominant, and where I did most of my work. I lost personal momentum after that, then tended to other threads with some good ideas for them ever since.
That Yearbook cover was on of my favorites, both the original comic cover, and my homage. Hopefully my lack of US flag background isn't too detracting, but until I get possesion and mastery of ILM-level compositry, I'd rather make do with simple backgrounds and experiments with lights and shadows and vignetting (or reverse vignetting in this case). And in the end, Michael Golden's original cluster composition was most important (the flag background added later as a graphic I believe).

BTW: Back then I almost forgot about doing this image with Ripcord's showcase.The original idea was try some heavy bird's-eye or wormseye shots, but test shots were coming out horribly (or were not capturing the figure in a favorable light). I happily changed plans once I remembered.
Also: the wish to do it came earlier when I did the LJ-RB-Flint picture for Roadblock (but didn't have a good Ripcord or Torpedo at the time . And that triad photo--and the way 50th Flint looked in it (blech)--led to wave 2 and beyond for this thread. I meant to retake the photo once Flint and LJ got my updates, also dialing down on its yellow light, but forgot about it. Hmmm...
