Title: For your consideration - Superman painting After Steranko
Post by: Odkin on September 25, 2005, 03:41:36 AM
Long time lurker, first time poster.  I did this a long time ago, and with the exception of a Boy Commandos cover recreation haven't painted since!  I currently ink for Big Bang Comics, a retro-style  Image book where I am currently pitching some very Curt Swan style cover ideas.  It's acrylic on canvas board, expandable by clicking.  What do you think?

It looks a lot like Steranko, LOL!

Pretty cool, you should paint more. 8)

That's a beautiful painting!  I just saved it, too!  

I didn't KNOW Big Bang Comics were still being done.  I'll have to hunt down some back issues!

For those who may not know, Bob's painting is an homage to Steranko's illustration (http://superman.nu/a/400/exile/) from Superman #400.

Also, be sure to check out Bob's inking and coloring work on our ongoing K-Metal project (http://superman.nu/k-metal-from-krypton/).

nice job, Odkin!
Great sense of volume! most fan art looks so flat to me, but not yours. I hope to see more.
