Thanks Powerstream. The blue layer is what I call a "mood layer". You tend to paint differently if you don't use white for a background. Also the character is not my design, but for a friend on DCUO the Source... so the color combos were his choosing. Actually LJ had these exact colors when she first started, even those sunglasses... I guess it's been popular since Alpha Flight.|

The references are HERE.
For the costume I used the illustration done for the owner by another artist, and his COH screenshot. For the torso, which was part of the reason I did this because I wanted to work on doing abs better, that was found on DA. Finally the backgrounds were based on stills from Superman Returns. All in all about 8 hours work, between yesterday and today.
I am tired now... off to try something new.

Thank you VexXxa! Here's one I am working on for my son... total sketch time about an hour. He asked for me to change the gun and the pant stripe, color to follow. He's just basically a Steampunk Werewolf. 
I like that pose, Looking good so far!

Nope, I did this one while he was in the shower. But he asked for one several weeks ago, I've just been swamped. He's watched me work on others before though.
Does he know you are actually working on it?

Ah... that's what you mean. Yes I shared it with last night just aft 1am... he usually surprises me at night, cause I have my headphones on and can not hear a thing while I work. The new rule of thumb is to flick the lights on Dad, and stop giving me heart attacks. He liked it a lot btw.
^_^ You're getting better LJ. 
Just make sure to inform me when you get one done for me, as I said in the PMs, I don't mind waiting. I'll just stare at the other pictures of your epic drawiness.
