Project TA: A Work in Progress

I can stand it no longer...I've been trying to draw for over 20 years off and on (more off than on to be honest) and reading this forum over the last couple of weeks has inspired me to break out the ol' lead sharpener and finally crank out at least one "finished" piece of work.

And what better subject to start with than everybody's favorite art collector, right? Let's begin, shall we?

Stage One - The rough sketch.

Just so we're all clear...the figure in the upper left corner was traced over a Tom Strong comic book cover. Its been a while since I handled a lead holder so I figured I would use a small traced figure to base my free-hand sketch off of. The large figure is 100% free-hand and will be the basis for my version of Thor's Assassin.

Please feel free to offer advice, critiques, or any words of encouragement you may have.

Next step: TA's basic costume shapes and adjusting the angle of the right wrist/hand.

Ok that's already better then mine.

Trust me; If I'd kept every drawing I'd crumpled up and thrown down in disgust I'd have suffocated under a mountain of paperwads looooong ago.

Thanks for the kind words

You mean you aren't suppose to keep them in a big mountainous pile?

Strong start imho <^.^> Love the body shape. Mine are rarely so muscular, but it seems you've got that style down quite well!
