The response to our Veteran’s Day social media posts reached unprecedented highs yesterday, so as a special thank you to our troops, we’re releasing our next hero early. Welcome Sergeant First Class Amber to the SlickforceGirl ranks!

Model Amber Forrester is a real-life Southern belle, and she jumped at the chance to bring our brave Army Officer to life. She has some heartfelt words for our beloved troops, and she takes her role extremely seriously. For what it’s worth, she also effortlessly handles a weapon almost half her size.

Thank you to all those who have served to protect freedom everywhere. Enjoy SlickforceGirl Amber Salutes the Troops!

Last weekend, SlickforceGirl made its’ third appearance at Stan Lee’s Comikaze. The convention hosted a record turnout this year, and SlickforceGirl fans received our new promo comic, pin-up posters, and a sneak peek at some top-secret projects we’ve got in the works. Attending our booth were creator Nick Saglimbeni, writer Stephanie L. Jones, and artist Corey Knaebel.

Thanks to Craig’s Cosplay Corral, we managed to get a few clean pics of the booth before the doors were opened and the chaos began!

Our space-traveling blerd is back, only this time she’s taking no prisoners. Behold this gorgeous new character art by Chris Williams, featuring original SlickforceGirl Vanessa Valentine holding her ground on a foreign world. You may be wondering—what on earth is she doing out there? The answers will come soon enough.

Follow @SlickforceGirl on Facebook and Instagram to unravel the mystery!

Comikaze is only a few months away, so you know what that means…more Slickforce art is on the way!

Artist Chris Williams has been turning out a steady stream of stunning character pieces for the SlickforceGirl tribe this year. Here is his latest work featuring firefighter Kaitlynn Connor as she braves the inferno. This is our first time working with colorist Blond who did an incredible job capturing the warm/cool contrast, and we’ll post the standalone inks by Jake Isenberg in a future entry so you can fully appreciate them.

It’s a scorcher here in southern California, so what better time to release this blazing hot new faux cover by SlickforceGirl artists Corey Knaebel and Ula Mos?

Fans love our Desert Mechanic Jessica character, no doubt in large part due to model Jessica Burciaga‘s endearing portrayal of our team’s newest hero. If you missed her dynamic debut, check it out here.

Here’s Mr. Knaebel’s take on our gorgeous grease monkey. Click on the image for the full HD pin-up. Enjoy!

Unsurprisingly, the response to our new Desert Mechanic Jessica character has been overwhelmingly positive — roughly 70% excitement and 30% drooling — which we no doubt owe in large part to our beautiful model Jessica Burciaga, who brought this hero to life. To her credit, it was pretty much impossible to make Jess even slightly unattractive, even with mountains of grease and dirt piled on her. She was a trooper ’til the end, so we thought it only fair to give our beloved readers a behind-the-scenes look at the making of this shoot.
