[long_silence.insanejournal.com]

So Models, Inc was a miniseries originally solicited for February and has finally been rescheduled for August. Only the solicit is out at this time, no cover yet.

MODELS, INC. #1 (of 4)
Written by PAUL TOBIN
Penciled by VICENC VILLAGRASA
Cover by SCOTT CLARK
Variant Cover by PHIL JIMENEZ
Fashion Week is always a hectic time for models, and this year is no exception. Between escaped wolves, robbery attempts, and overly friendly police officers, Toni Turner, Patsy Walker, Jill Jerold, Chili Storm and Millicent (Millie the Model) Collins are testing the limits of their endurance. But when a brilliant young set designer is found murdered with three bullet holes in his back, and Millie proves to be the prime suspect, the models are forced to play detective in order to save one of their own!
* Retailers please note that this issue will contain an ad for Marvel Subscriptions.
32 PGS./Rated T+ ...$3.99

I didn't think it was worth posting at first. And then I noticed something had changed.

Here is the original solicit, see if you can spot the difference.

Who the heck is Toni Turner and why did she replace MJ?

That's not LAND! You tricked me!

It's not?

But the soulless eyes, the scary smile. It sure looks like it is.

Sorry I'll go edit the post now.

The solicit says some guy called "Scott Clark" made that. Yes, it feels like Land but it isn't him.

[long_silence.insanejournal.com]

Man I didn't even notice that, and I posted it!

Geez I'm blind, I better go to sleep.

Clark is probably going to be Land's minion. Instead of Land actually tracing stuff he'll have someone else do the tracing for him.

[foxhack.insanejournal.com]

I actually have very few problems with this Clark fellow because of these reasons:

A) He actually used a proper photo to trace from instead of a hodgepodge of different bodies and faces;
B) The girl looks pretty, not too plastic or anything like that;
C) The pose looks natural, not forced;
D) Even though it's traced, there's actual SHADING and COLORING
E) It looks just as photoshopped as pictures in a real fashion magazine!

No its not, Land would have probably looked better than this.

The terrifying thing is that you may be right.

Yeah, but this is supposed to look preposed and plastic and sanitized. That's how these things look on grocery store racks.
