Description This is the first time I've ever gone back and 'fixed' one of my pics. Not long ago, nikoskap.deviantart.com suggested this could benefit from inking and funnily enough, I was thinking the same thing - I'm fairly proud of all the detail that went into this pic and was gutted when so much was lost because of my choice to go with very soft pencils. The colour still looks washed out but hopefully this is better than the pencil version.

For anyone who didn't see the first version, this is the Warriors Three, Sif and Hildegarde versus everyone else in Asgard yadda yadda. Thor's off on Midgard, Odin's having a kip and Balder's looking at these guys and shaking his head, muttering "Kids these days..."

That's crazy chaotic! Didn't know you were a huge Thor fan. I bet you'd make a fun Marvel writer and artist if they ever hired you

Thor's always been my favourite Marvel hero and I love that the Asgardians enjoy a good scrap. They're like Conan on steroids!

Hah, yeah that is very true! Got any other favorite Marvel heroes?

conradknightsocks In reply to StarGamerWorld [2020-01-04 12:21:49 +0000 UTC]

Yep ... She-Hulk, Hercules, Spidey, Wonder Man, Mockingbird ... the list goes on!

My favourite Marvel *character* though is the Rhino, believe it or not

Oh wow, the Rhino? Why him?

I loved his design as a kid, he’s a bit more 3D than most baddies, not necessarily a straightforward villain and his mix of power and stupidity means he can be used against a wide range of guys ... Cap beat him but he’s also done well against the Hulk

Hehe, yeah that is very true. Rhino's always been a brute that does best when he can be a brute How fun would a fight between Rhino and Juggernaut be?

It’d a short fight! And I say that as a huge Rhino fan!

Unfortunately true Ah well, would be fun regardless.

If I may ask, do you still like drawing every now and then? Or have you stopped that hobby nowadays?

conradknightsocks In reply to StarGamerWorld [2020-01-05 16:27:02 +0000 UTC]

Stopped pretty much, although I’m sure I’ll
Go back to it someday

I can understand that. I had a long time where I didn't do much inking myself

Still, I'll hope to do more in the future! Would it be fun to theoretically collab sometime, with you doing sketches/pencils and I ink it?

That sounds like a cool idea, I'd definitely be up for that when I draw again. I'm useless at inking!

StarGamerWorld In reply to conradknightsocks [2020-01-06 10:14:05 +0000 UTC]

Sounds great! That will hopefully be fun to do. Have you ever tried drawing your own comics before?

conradknightsocks In reply to StarGamerWorld [2020-01-06 11:11:47 +0000 UTC]

Yep! Some examples - these are done with the older ones first, so hopefully the art improves as you go down!

Oh nice. Those look impressive. Perhaps a bit early to say, especially as I'll be busy for the next couple months, but would a Golden Axe-style comic be fun to do with the character idea we discussed, possibly?

I couldn't commit to anything right now. I just quit the gym because I couldn't afford it but when I get some money together, I'll be rejoining - I've found in the past that I only have time for one hobby at a time! I've got two kids and drive 110 miles round trip every day for work.

So, no plans for me to start drawing seriously again anytime soon, I'm afraid!

Thanks a lot! Like I said in the description for the original, I thought the background needed much more colour and I didn't want to draw yet another simple starscape, so the Rainbow Bridge sounded like a good plan!

This must have taken forever to do Nick! Well worth the time and effort you must have put into it. I've just sent the last five minutes blowing it up on screen to scroll around it all properly. Awesome..

Thanks a lot, matey! It was a painful process because the pencil sketches were really detailed and I lost a lot of that by choosing to use a 6B pencil and then colouring it. The whole thing ended up looking muddy and it was hard to see what was going on. Inking has at least the figures clearer but I wish the colours were brighter and TBH the background needs real work. I tend to end up falling back on mountain scapes and stars when I don't have a clear idea for a background! I'm really glad I bunged the rainbow bridge in there though, it was a last minute decision but I think it really helped.
