Description From the Marvel Masterpieces 3 set, here's the first of my AP cards. Every time I sit down to draw and not ink, it's a crazy challenge, usually from me to my own manhood, since I'm terrified of what will come out. Just don't have the same confidence in drawing that I do in inking, let alone color. But still, got to get these done. Feel free to rip!

Something makes the shield look a little small, but otherwise the proportions are great on this-- well done because it is from a difficult angle in a really small space.

I like how he came out sort of stoic, that's a good expression for Cap, fits the sacrificing personality.

Thanks man; I think the angle I cut it off at probably does that with the shield. Something more for me to work on!

It blossoms like a black rose Mark. It's not their best work, but it's a hell of a listen.

MarkIrwin In reply to NickMockoviak [2008-11-12 02:15:16 +0000 UTC]

Agreed; MoP is still their greatest. But the new one outshines the Black Album, at least for me!

I agree; it's a personal favorite at the moment.

Did you see them live yet? I'm interested in The Sword's live set.

I like the pose and your cross-hatching! At first, I was thinking that his face was not right somehow. And then I saw that his mask formed the same star-shape as the one on his chest, and when, "ooohhh!!! that's why!!"

The mouth looks a bit strange, but other than that, I think you did a beyond fine job.

MarkIrwin In reply to Dualmask [2008-11-07 22:36:48 +0000 UTC]

Probably the under-lighting makes it look weird; his head is tilted slightly up (a super hard shot for me)and partially obscured by his chest.
