Description My buddy, Skottie Young, fellow member of Ledheavy hit me up to ask me how I would handle Nova, and this is what I came up with. It's rushed job. Took me a little over an hour to design him.

Hope ya'll digs!

Your speed is astounding!

I used to collect "The Man Called Nova". Nice to see some (relatively) new art about him.

i actually like the mask where the star is just a design. That's cool.
I can't figure out what about the costume urks me, though. Maybe the body needs more yellow somewhere... hmm...
it's really good though.

GOOD TAKE! I like the top head with the emblem more prominent. If you don't mind, I am starting back up with my drawing again from my therapy so I can fight off my injury and still draw. I will be posting some stuff soon and would like you and anyone else you know to critique.

THANX!!

Thank you for your time.

Really cool, I like the star on his head, but I think what i like best is how casual and natural the pose is! Great work!

evilbutters [2005-01-12 15:21:03 +0000 UTC]

I was never a big fan of Nova, but I love your version of him. Very very cool. One of the coolest designs I've seen for him. Great work.

i love it

Matt-Henegar [2005-01-12 14:27:48 +0000 UTC]

I don't know, man, I think you should've done something with the helmet, instead of turning it into a mask, but that's just me....I like what you did.

kudos to you.

UltimateJ2K [2005-01-12 12:02:09 +0000 UTC]

My pref is the actual star on the mask it just looks right...I think his outfit is a bit too loose though...like a guy filling in for Nova or something...the style is killer and the layout is classic cartoon character design 101.

waydre [2005-01-12 11:36:06 +0000 UTC]

this is hot!
its streamlined and yet functional...this could be a good bid to get him to come back(at least in a back up story)...
nice job-and quick too!

I do, trust me...

NinjaBits [2005-01-12 10:18:46 +0000 UTC]

I definately dig your take, brah. I always liked Nova, but I couldn't stand the bucket head. The sheathe head looks awesome...and I dig the mask type as opposed to the star type. I know the star is more traditional for Nova, but with the fabric mask I dunno if the star would hold up. Still looks faboo.

chunkysmurf [2005-01-12 09:37:51 +0000 UTC]

excellent. I'd have to say that I like the bottom design for the hood a bit better though. The top one would be too hard for him to see, it seems like it would mess with his pov. He can't be having a disadvantage like that as a superhero.

I never really got into Nova, but I have to say this is the best style/design i have ever seen of him. I think it really suits.

LightBombMike [2005-01-12 07:37:14 +0000 UTC]

very 70's lookin... all those retro toons ya did influenced ya a bunch it would seem.... I definetly dig the big adorment, more than the one painted on the hood... feels more nova.

yeah, I had a feelin when I saw the thumbnail, this was cause of Skottie.
