Description Superman!

A drawing (or painting?) that was done some time ago (crappy anatomy attests to that) of Superman,who is...the last man on the Universe. Yes, all the white background in the drawing are what remains of the universe, with only Superman being able to withstand the destruction of the Universe by Antimatter. With the feeling of being unable to save a single life, Superman decides to abandon his symbol, his logo, as this represented the hope that Superman carried to humanity...

Haha, that was too pretentious. Ok, really, I just felt lazy, and didn't do the background. And I was going to do some Photoshoping for the logo, but alas, I didn't. Hope you enjoy the crappiness, though.
I did love the noir-ish effect, so I had to share it. I plan to do something similar (and obviously better) in the future.

This is cool. Are you considering doing a version too with his symbol? I'm sorta a sucker for it.

Very nice, I could see this as a poster or as a comic book. The small dash of red adds a lot to the image without being overpowering.

There is so much scientificly inacurate information in that first part of the description. But alas, I lol'd.

I can't see why you would dislike this. It's freaking golden ! Those inky shades, those one-tone colors, that all-too-serious look ... definitely deserves an epic brofist .

daremaker In reply to TAMIC0 [2010-09-29 03:41:51 +0000 UTC]

Aha, indeed it is impossible, but not in DC's comics: [link]
I guess the anatomy is sort of off, but thanks, I did love the look, and I'll probably do some serious stuff when I can do digital art again.
Lol at the brofist.

Nah, it is YOU my friend, who has proven DC (and me) wrong. I should take more science classes in college though...

TAMIC0 In reply to daremaker [2010-09-30 12:09:29 +0000 UTC]

Well whatever floats your boat (: You should only take classes that pertain to your field of study though. You don't want to sit through a semester of something that doesn't interest you.

A very interesting painting (as I see it)! I like how you used high dark-bright-contrast and only weak colors. You're giving Superman a whole new image, morely being a second dark knight beside Batman. Does suit him pretty well in my opinion!
Also a good job on the anatomy, keep it up man.

daremaker In reply to Domovatus [2010-09-29 03:54:32 +0000 UTC]

I guess it is a painting hehe
Thanks! Wow, you think so? Well, I do don't like his overly happy image, so I guess it suits.
Hey,what about you? I wanna see a comic from you soon!!!

Domovatus In reply to daremaker [2010-09-29 19:29:24 +0000 UTC]

And be sure, I'm working on the comic and making good progress, might be there in a few days.

Haha, I thought you just liked the character lol

Yeah, I was going to add the logo with Photoshop, like it's done on the comics,but I gave up, so he is...the Alien (he's Kriptonian, after all )

RedWingsDragon In reply to daremaker [2010-09-29 18:59:50 +0000 UTC]

Well I do like Superman, but I figured well with out his logo he is THE MAN.... Or The Kriptonian.. *shrug*

Poor him all alone in a blank, lifeless world Maybe you should add a shadow on the floor just to compliment the meaning of the expression here. The shading looks awesome and badass

Thanks! Yeah, you're right, but, what could create the shadows (then again, Supes wouldn't have any shading either lol)

Looks very awesome, I love how it turned out and the sort of depressing mood that the picture and your description conveys!

Definitely a more serious sort of tone, which fits in with the DC universe really well actually.
