Description
The character from Marvel Comics Group known as the Invisible Woman is my latest Deviation. She is an integral part of the team called, The Fantastic Four! Created decades ago, during Marvel's Golden Age, by Jack 'King' Kirby & Stan 'The Man' Lee. When comic books starred only one hero at a time, this was the first book for Marvel to put a team of Heroes together.
They received their 'elemental' powers from a cosmic storm during a scientific expedition in space. Ben Grimm (the Thing) represents earth, while Reed Richards (Mr. Fantastic) flows and expands like water. Married to Reed is Sue Storm (Invisible Woman) who can disappear into thin air and create solid structures and fields out of air. Her brother, Johnny Storm (Human Torch) utilizes fire and flames.
As a family, they explored the furthest reaches of outer space and other dimensions. They have defended the planet Earth from alien invasions and conquerors, such as the Skrulls and Galactus and the Silver Surfer. Their base of operations is in the heart of Manhattan.
I created this piece in SketchBook Pro with a Wacom Bamboo Tablet. You can see the other pencil sketches and inks in my Gallery and Scraps pile. I noticed that a lot of my Deviations were of characters either standing still or in a mild pose. I picked a very strong female character and chose an animated pose for her. Suddenly I added the Super-Skrull, and the main piece finally came together. So far I have worked many hours on this. I decided to keep the colors 'flat' for the time being. I did use a paintbrush on the flames and force field. An Airbrush was used for the background. I used the pen tool for the inking. Then a marker for the large areas of color. And the eraser. A lot.
I hope you enjoy it, and please feel free to visit the rest of my Gallery. Thank you for your time!

Andris, You have drawn quite an impressive Susan Storm Richards aka the Invisible Woman and I must say that she is one of the best I have seen on here. I see that You've done Your homework in that You are absolutely correct about the FF being the first of a family of superheroes whereas prior to this there were basic loners, all fighting crime per se in their own unique way and of course the common theme is the battle of GOOD versus EVIL. Great art work, my friend and I hope to see more of Your talent in the near future. hugs!!
Your Sue Storm aka Mrs Fantastic has that older Jack Kirby/Stan Lee look which always impressed me immensely yet she is unique in many ways. She's definitely Yours, Andris, and if I see her again without any description I will know she belongs to You. hugs!! Susan xox

Nice work! Sue Storm yet again proves she's not just a pretty face as she tackles Super Skrull.
