*ahem*

Uhm, cool.

But, looks kinda've gay... not exactly how I'd like Batman to be portrayed.

Superman I don't care so much.

Just looks like Batman got himself all on Superman, s'all.

Can't say I agree with you, but you're certainly entitled to your opinion.

Well it's great artwork, it just seems that way if you look at it too long.

Thankfully, I don't like most of my work and don't stare at it for too long

I hope you don't mind... but I kind of drew this picture on to a T-Shirt... I just thought I would tell you and if you mind then I won't put any pictures up and if me copying your picture is okay?

I need to buy a fabric pen to go over it because I'm not sure if Sharpie marker washes out of cotton and then I think I may colour it and thanks for letting me.

Batman's too large, he shouldn't because he is behind Superman!!! I love the piece and colors though!

anatomically,supes' face and neck seem a bit wrong while batman is ok.but the main problem i see is that there is no difference between foreground and background making bats seem like he's glued to supes.
Suggestions: you should try making batman's face smaller than superman's or make the contour (surrounding-lineart) lines thicker around superman to give a touch of depth.
generally a really nice piece

StephenSchaffer In reply to Rothmansmoker [2008-06-27 21:00:36 +0000 UTC]

Well, here's the thing. I'm probably not going to do much more to this piece. I spent about 20 minutes on the drawing and maybe an hour on the color the first time, and then another hour or so for the second round of colors. I do appreciate the critique and will definitely keep it in mind for future projects.

That's what i was aiming for.
I didn't mean you should redo this particular pic..

StephenSchaffer In reply to Rothmansmoker [2008-06-28 16:10:29 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, my buddies think I'm a jerk for never redoing my pieces. They give me their expert advice (and most of the time it really is) and I don't use it immediately. But my thing, like I said, is all the creative juices (good, bad, or otherwise) for said piece are usually gone by the time I let people see it and if they have beefs with it, then I catalog it for the next go round!

Rothmansmoker In reply to StephenSchaffer [2008-06-28 16:22:38 +0000 UTC]

that's what i do too.I cannot touch something after i have considered it finished and whatever the advice i keep it in mind for future endeavors.

i assumed they WERE glued together... reminded me of the brokeback mountain poster, superman looks like he'd be the bitch in that relationship

Rothmansmoker In reply to hue-bee-doo [2008-06-28 13:10:43 +0000 UTC]

Of course superman would be the bitch.
there's no way bats would bend over for anyone,
even for "the man of steel"
