They say that behind every great man is a great woman, but in front of every great villain is a great henchman! From right-hand men and seductive advisers to elite muscle and top assassins, the hench force of the world is what keeps the villains fighting toe-to-toe with those valiant heroes. A cut above the rank-and-file faceless mooks, these are the minibosses for supercriminals, the lieutenants, the specialists, and the arm candy. Characters such as Thanos' Black Order, Harley Quinn in her original appearance, or even the James Bond thugs like Jaws and Oddjob. And as luck would have it, a good number of my villains are understaffed!
Your job will be to design a unique henchman or henchwoman for one of my existing villains.

Your job will be to design a unique henchman or henchwoman for one of my existing villains.
The Rules:
- Henchmen may be male, female, machine, or anything else, really.
- Henchmen should compliment their boss' theme and/or abilities.
- Henchmen may have powers, but nothing more powerful than their boss. There's a reason they aren't independent villains of their own.
- Keep things lighthearted overall. Nothing too grim or gruesome.
- Henchmen must be created since the start of the contest, and created by you. There is a time and a place for recycling, but this isn't it.
- Art or other visual aids are encouraged, but if you are unable to do so, a full detailed description of the henchmen's appearance must be included.
- Deadline for entries is July 31st before 11:59 PM EST!

Sex: Male
Age: 26
Occupations: Film Director, prop and makeup designer (former), Henchman

Powers: Stanley himself is an average man, but he can pilot a mighty mechanized suit that resembles the Dullahan of Irish myth. The suit possesses strength well beyond that of any normal human, and is surprisingly agile. It can equip a large whip resembling a human spine (it's actually a very convincing prop), greatly extending the suit's combat capabilities. The suit itself appears to be a knight, standing at a towering ten feet, with black armor and skull motifs, but distinctly lacks a head. Instead, the suit carries its "head", a skull that can be thrown, which causes it to detonate. This is a powerful we

Dossier Info
Juliana grew up in a French orphanage, never knowing her true family. At some point she escaped from the orphanage after causing trouble, presumed dead in a fire. Taking the name of Juliana D'Aubigny, she became obsessed with the theater and music. The music she herself generated through operatic song, however, turned out to have a hidden effect: she could transfix people with it. Before long Juliana turned to crime, happy to immobilize people and steal their possessions. Rumors would initially suggest she was incredibly fast, but the truth was that her voice was her real weapon. A ch

The Gladstone Weekly Initiative
It's come to my attention that the recent focus on larger dimensional studies has left considerable gaps in the institute's rate of patient acquisitions. To this end, I've decided to start the weekly initiative. In addition to the larger groups that are still pending (such as the Marvel bunch coming soon), I'll be taking suggestions week by week for additional patients and adding at least one of them at a time. The rules for these suggestions are: - Each person can only suggest up to 3 prospective patients each week. - Suggestions can be female or male, but must be 18+ - OCs are allowed - Because larger projects will still be ongoing (Nintendo, DC, Marvel, etc.), suggestions are recommended to be from properties that wouldn't get included in those larger projects that are already planned. This is not a specific requirement, but I am more likely to draw ones that I'm not already planning on drawing in a big group in the future. - If you suggest a patient and I do not pick them,
Doc's 2023 To Do List
Things have been a bit haphazard, but I thought I'd make a journal to summarize everything that I've got planned for the near future. New Hero/Villain Debuts There's still a lot of characters I have yet to debut, and the relative order is going to be: - Everton Heights Heroes and Villains - Steelboro Heroes and Villains - Bellevue Heroes and Villains - Ley Society Villains Everton Heights batch will likely be my next upload to DA. Gladstone Institute The next batch (Marvel Comics characters) should be coming soon, after that I'll hold a vote for what you'd like to see next. Gold Cotton Club Redux My first real OC project, I'll be rebuilding from the ground up and adding some bondage stuff in because I'm pretty sure that's what most of my watchers are here for. Calathen Valley The new fantasy OCs will get some more bondage pics soon too. Anything Else? What would you guys like to see from me? Let me know in the comments.
Concerning Commissions
So, I've uploaded only 1 pic in the past 3 months. The reason is that I feel guilty drawing other things when I have commissions pending, but at the same time I haven't had a lot of motivation to work on commissions. Even when the commissions subjects are things that I really enjoy, it's still the fact that my drawing hobby has been turned into a duty/responsibility. I keep procrastinating and it's getting to be way too much, especially for the people who commissioned me. Long and short of it is that I just don't enjoy doing commissions. I thought taking a long break from commissions in the past year or two would keep them fresh, but it's really made me resent them more. I have tons of pictures that I want to draw, but haven't been able to. Some of the new characters I have lined up were finished over 2 years ago but I still haven't debuted them yet on DA, plus plenty of other ongoing projects. The bottom line is that I'm not doing commissions anymore after I finish this
The Blunders and Bungles Jam
Alright folks, you voted on it, and now it's time for a new themed art jam! Get ready for the Blunders and Bungles Jam! So what does that mean, exactly? In the unending fight of superheroes against supervillains, nobody's at the top of their game 100% of the time. This jam will be focused on the captures, turnabouts, and humor from when heroes or villains slip up! Here are the full set of rules: You must submit art or writing that you have personally created. Your submission must have been created since the start of the jam. Your submission must feature superheroes and/or supervillains as the central characters. These characters do not have to be OCs, but it's recommended just for more creative control. Your submission must also be in keeping with the above theme. And, as an added bonus, everyone who enters will get a free picture from me. No conditions, no pending judging decisions, everybody gets one. This free picture will be of any 1 character of your choice, but if your
