My own designs....

After trying to develop my skills and techniques required to duplicate an original piece by Neal Adams, I finally bit the bullet and attempted to produce my own design...

Firstly I needed a reference image, so my dad took a picture of my posing as you might see a superhero pose...


The top was tight, and unflattering...



















I began drawing in pencil, trying to get a general outline of the body shape. Once that was done, I began exaggerating everything. I made the arms bigger, the lats, chest, neck and also made waist smaller (a little too small.....).

I am quite happy with the result, though there are clearly a few things wrong with it, such as the waist size being too small, and the chest being relatively uneven. Apart from those issues I believe it is a good representation of me as a superhero. I am especially happy with the face/head/hair.

I shall proceed to colour this and post the outcome...
