Grate movement, it has that classic look like the hulk and lots of expression, I like the mask being pulled on with the camera swinging from the forward motion, it's a joy to see. I hope he will be joining the hulk on my shelf, any chance we can see a shot of them together?

Really impressed with this one.

Cheers my dears.

RE Spider-man. Although it looks roughly executed and more of a sketch,a lot of reasoning goes into my pieces.

Spidey is wearing a leotard made up of seperate pieces. So we can see where his glove starts on his forearm. Beneath the glove we see the bulk of the web cartridges. The lenses are set under the black frame around the eyes,not flush.

I even took into consideration that the camera strap would be beefier,moe durable than a normal one due to Spideys actions.

Its hard to get a lot of drama because of that mask,so I decided to add a lot of movement and a glimpse of neck to show there really is a person under that none revealing mask.

I also 'tried' to give the mask a 'face', a character,a wicked looking,sarcastic kind of look to go with Spideys nervous humour.

Ok...back to real life..hmm...what about Supermans curl? Will Woverines hair be flat when he removes his cowl....
