Another new sketch for this week. Its a female version of the Silver Surfer. I have always wanted to do a SS piece and will someday soon. Im not all that happy with this sketch. I was working with a reference pic of a girl surfing that seemed to have allot more energy and interest in the image. Either I was wrong or I have failed to capture it with my pencil. :lol: But its a bit flat. Ill try to do another that is more extreme and exciting.

Im also going to make A comic book recommendation today. Im not big on religion, but I have to admit that allot of its imagery and stories make for great comic book material. I recently read the 4 trade paperback collections of a book called Strange Girl. it's about a girl that doesn't get chosen during the rapture and stays behind on the earth as it becomes run by demons. Its very, very good. The art is a bit expressionistic and different. The story moves along fast and has lots of good twists, humor and characters you grow to care about. I highly recommend it.

And with that, todays sketch.

I like it, but maybe you should give her more of an hourglass figure.? When I first glanced at it, it looked like the regular SS with boobs, so maybe making the body more curvy (not over the top like Jessica Rabbit, mind you) would help. Nice work on the hands/fingers...those are hard to do well!

bats forgot if you have a comicbookdb account or not..I will go check the comic forum, but I still really, really like that site. Has made keeping track of my books, much, much easier.

Thanks people. :D I agree Nutmeg and I will revise the sketch to make it more "feminine" Good crit and much appreciated. No LB I dont have CBDB account. How does it work and what are the benefits? Do I use it to inventory my books? Kind a like on online inventory manager thing? Does it price stuff? I have over 4000 comics so it could be a ridiculous undertaking for me. :lol: :lol: Give me the skinny when you get the chance. - BAT
