Description I did a lot of sketches at this week's draw night so I'll post them in 3 parts over the next three days.

These I'm trying to warm-up a bit. I tried drawing Silver surfer again but I can never get that guy to turn out right. I need more practice for sure.

I just thought it was your own take on Silver Surfer. I love the flying guy in perspective, going to use that as reference. Only reference.

Is Drawing Night like a figure drawing class or something?

I don't know man, it seems like you got the Surfer down pretty solid.

I would like to see him go against your all new, all original character, The Silver Platter.

Andre-chan [2008-02-20 23:28:41 +0000 UTC]

So whats wrong with ol' Silver Sufer? The anatomy is wrong? His shiny exterior isn't shiny enough? His stance is not as kick-ass as it should be?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

RyanOttley In reply to Andre-chan [2008-02-21 01:28:10 +0000 UTC]

Exactly, whenever I draw Surfer I can't get anything right, especially his legs. I don't think it has to do with the character, just the fact that I need more anatomy work.

poelzer [2008-02-20 23:20:08 +0000 UTC]

I love the guy flying. The silver platter is good but I think there should be more black. Just my opinion.

LOL! superhero puns... Invincible's puns must be rubbing off, eh? Some ideas for next draw nite:

Thing outside the box
Galactus Intolerant
Captain American Grafitti
The incredible Hulk Hogan... although that one could be quite an eye-thor.
Mr Fantastic Sam's
Dr. Doom-little (if he could talk to the animals...)
Nick furry
Namor, mr. nice guy

Oh, I'm in trouble now...

The Silver Platter could be a cool 'homenage' in some certain super-hero comic

And the one in upper right looks like he's going to cry for his 'mommy'
