For the Project Rooftop Superman: Man of Style contest!

I had a lot of trouble designing this one! It took a lot of time for all my ideas to crystalize into a cohesive look, which freaked me out this week because the deadline is tomorrow, but now I'm good to go. :)

I had some specific things I wanted to do - put the underwear inside the pants, kill the spandex, etc - and then tried to put myself in his head. What would he wanna wear? He's come from humble beginnings, which he's looking to hide, so shy farmboy style is out. He's in his early 20s, probably more than a little cocky, so he's going sharp and sleek to bring all the alliterative-initialed girls to the yard. And the way his gloves wrap around his hands makes him look like the superest boxer in town, a small hint at his awesome strength! (This is also maybe a joke with my little brother. We decided a Supes story wasn't *quite* complete if he neglected to punch the crap out of something. I decided boxer bandages were less idiotic than brass knuckles.)

His face is still open, he wants people to trust him, but... his neck and hands are covered? There might be some subconscious shyness in play here. He's read the pulps, he's seen the alien invasion movies. He knows the military always finds a creative way to kill the all-powerful being in the end. On some level, he's scared of the very people he's sworn to protect.

And that guardedness shows up again! Those yellow circles on his hands are sensitive radiation detectors keyed to freak out if kryptonite is in the area. With both hands he can figure out which direction it's in, so he can fly the other way. (Unless he has to save Lois! Drama!)

TL;DR

Suave newbie Superman blah blah blah

I was attacked by a bird the other day!

( The biiiiiiirds! )

Today was nice. Woke up late, painted some stuff I've been putting off, chilled out in the backyard soaking up the nice weather, reread some Craig Thompson, ate some chocolate, drew these:





Freehand brushpen. I should do this more often. :)

And then I knocked this recipe out of the park for dinner.

Jeez I am sooo chill right now :D

This is my cat.



Her name is Honey. She's dumb.

School's out for the summer and that means TONS OF ARTS. Here's stuff I've done for POKEMONATHON so far. I did the first 151 Pokemon last summer, so this summer I'm setting out to do the next hundred! It's pretty fun so far, hehehe. :)

LONG AWAITED NEW FIGURE DRAWING POST

YAY

But first I shall bitch. There was a big citywide pillowfight for us enraged San Francisco singles. On Valentine's Day. Everybody got flimsy, easily- exploded feather pillows and beat the shit out of eachother/drank Red Bull for three hours. Basically. THAT was fun.

What hasn't been fun was the aftermath. I think I overdid it with the crazed physical exertion. (As in, after one hour I started asking my roomie if we could go back, because I was tired and didn't know the way back, but we ended up staying for another hour-and-a-half, and I fought through a strained left elbow.

So for the last FOUR FUCKING DAYS I've been full of achey torso/arm muscles, and I have a sinus headache from breathing in feather pillow bits, so my forehead feels like it extends a foot farther than it should.

I swear to god if I am too sick to hit Wondecon my roomie will never hear the end of it.
