    @Spike3185 and @Kev:

    Yup, that's the bit that had me flustered! I might stick her in a snood and be done with it? :) how's this look now?

    See? Sparky knows cool in-crowd details to add into his IRON MAN poster. All I was up for is aping the look and type.

    That's my favorite stage to see another artist's pencils/sketches.
    Great stuff, Kevin!

    Looking good, Neil. I think the only problem with the first girl's neck was that you had some many elements lining up (her neck, her hair, the jacket collar) that it made her look like she had a thick neck. I think the slight amount of fix you did helped out a great deal. And I still dig the in-focus/out focus coloring stuff you're doing. Top notch.

    A couple more micron/copic/watercolor speed life sketches from last year's sketchbooks, as I continue the digital cataloging of useful doodles.

    Slogging my way through this - I'm picturing Jane as President Hank Fonda's daughter running amuck in Norad where her hero Iron Man is ...

    For the record - I'm using CS2 Photoshop to paint Jane with a mouse as my Wacom was bought in Japan and decided to go home ... :(

    @Paul Sizer: Damn fine Iron Man!
    @chris g: Cool Bat Man!
    @kevinmellon: That Venom is pretty menacing! Well done.

    Me and my kids... as Super Robots! C'mon.... what family wouldn't want to kick some butt around town as a pack of Super Robots?
    Cheers!
    TNPerkins - YAY Super Robots!

    @tnperkins - you always bring the cheer. Thanks.
    Working on George and Peter - arrgh!

    Trying to eliminate as many black lines as possible and looking at the image in grayscale doesn't help ...

    I can see the Scott head is warped though ...

    @Chris G I have been very much enjoying your evolving style. You need to be selling more graphic printed merchandise. I would yes to be buying some please thanks.

    Have you thought of a Space Shark collection? You have enough for that. If you put all that together in a well designed package, it could be quite a tasty object.

    Here are some more life drawing sketchbook scans:
