Being British and not American, I have never heard of this hero. Must say he looks a cross between Spiderman and Superman! This is very striking with the red, white and blue colours. Like the background which looks like a night sky to me with lots of little dots resembling stars. The character himself is fantastic. The whole image is very striking and colourful. Thanks for sharing.

    thank you Susan for the great reviews. you need to watch the ADVENGERS movie came out last year, really cool show. it has all the marvel comic book hero's in it, I'm sure you'd recognize a few of them.
    thanks again

Comment from Jean A Cormier


Well, I don't know much about digital painting, but this does appear as though it is an acrylic or an oil-some digital just looks so smudged where you have clearly defined lines and good tonal range. I certainly hope your husband likes this-it is nicely composed, LOVE the American flag in the background and the dark far background really pushes this toward me. How long does it take to do something like this? Jean

    thank you jean. when I use twisted brush, I use a few brushes that are called acrylic to give it the oil painted appearance. also the colors are richer than they are when I use air brush. its a really great program, that resembles a lot of traditional brushes.
    thanks again jean

Comment from Lucien van Oosten


I think you did nice job on creating this digital image. I do think that the flag needs to be entirely within the frame and there needs to be a little more negative space at the top, as it is matted and framed the top of his head would get cut of. I think you have done a very good job with the lighting, shadows and blending.

when will we see Thor & the rest of the Avengers?

Neat work and very cool that you did this all digitally- my kids would love it. I am not a big super hero fan either, but the movie was good and I do like the bright bold colors- Nice work!! The flag behind is a neat effect!

I don't care if the pose is copied from someone else. I agree - if you painted it, it's new to you.
Overall, this is a good picture. I would unfurl the flag a little more in the top right because it's a little dark there. Not too much, just a little more. I'm not sure why there are two shadows on the shield, but it didn't look quite right with them. I know that it's a superhero 'thing" for their faces to be in the shadow, but could you let us see some more features? It could still be shadowed, just not as sinister.
I'm sure your husband loved it because it is a great picture. I felt those few things might make it a little better for next time.
(And yes, I like Thor too. Can't wait for the next movie.)

    thank you so much for a fantastic review. I agree, I should have added more detail to the face, but the original art work that I copied this from had it that way, I think I will go back and add a little detail, because your right it does make him look more like a bad guy instead of the hero he is suppose to be.
    oh and the shadows on the shield are way off I agree completely, but had to do that to make it look concave, I had it first without the shadows and it looked flat.
    thank you again for taking the time to write such an in depth review, it is always appreciated

Comment from LorrainePurviance


nice job I like the colors and the flag background, the figure is well done and the shadow helps focus the eye on the figure.
