It's looking better and better, Spidey. Are you using any particular reference arts?

If you saw a heat wave, would you wave back?

Thanks gomur. I have been using several pieces from Lee's For Tomorrow run on Superman, but I don't really have just one reference. I will post up a few a little later. It the end though i am trying to get the Lee feel down, and have a piece that will kind of hold up,when placed along with the portraits already on the PF, which is a damn tall order when I think about the fact that Andy B and Martin Canale did those two...lol.

Thanks again for the encouragement gomur

I decided its a very difficult balancing act trying to capture lees style and applying it to a portrait in this scale that doesn't feel out of place with the rest of the statue. it helps to take just a few things that feel very "lee-esque" and apply them and let the rest of it blend with the realism of the piece as a whole

Yeah it is an odd balancing act. I thought I had it several times, but I just keep getting suggestions and improving on this based on those. It is an awesome experience.

Big Thank you to DM for the custom cape.
I really dig it!

I still can't get them to display exactly the way I want them but it's closer now.
