The Man of Steel


Superman! This was supposed to be an entry for Toycon Philippine's DC Fanart contest I wasn't able to submit it before the deadline though because of my Saturday class schedule. I'm thankful for the kind staff for letting me display it amongst the contestants though.

Creation process. I used Cristopher Reeve's 1970's superman pictures as reference for this one. However I made some drastic changes. In my opinion Chris' superman was more on the athletic body type rather than the comic's bulkier build. So thats where I let my creativity flow, I added more bulk to everything. Though Christopher Reeve's features are barely noticable in my painting I think people will still know my work as superman even if i removed the S on his chest.

Thanks for reading and I'll make sure to find a contest that I can reach the deadline with next time.
