Not just that, it looks simple, but it was alot more than a filter and it was very time consuming.
Also I got it printed at a printing place, full poster size.
thats what I got paid $50 for.

I got paid £25 for reinstalling printer drivers on my mum's computer one. I think she just wanted an excuse to give me money.

You only got $50 for making a poster for a shitty movie somewhat decent?


That sucks, you'd have been better off buying lotto tickets.

Making money... versus wasting money...

MAKE SENSE?

And one is shirtless.

The character in the story is shirtless for most of it until he receives a proper 'superhero' uniform.
as for 'large packages', its an optical illusion. I actually make a distinct point to draw all my male characters with 'small packages'.
You just can't tell.

Why you're looking at their junk is beyond me.


Also, anyone reading this will now look at their junk.

I hate to sound critical, but are they standing on something? I know you probably didn't want to have to draw the full figures but it might not hurt to know where they are standing.

No I dig critque.
I tend to start drawing in the middle of a page of 8 by 11 printer paper.
Which I start with their head and then line out the pose.
Usually when I'm doing a pose with outstretched arms and such, I draw with the paper sideways. Landscape.
So usually the legs never even make it onto paper.
