Geekin' Out


I just finished this a minute ago. Maybe I should wait to post it when I get some distance off of it. Anyway, here's a picture of Iron Man. I loved the movie, very faithful to the comics. Robert Downey Jr. is hilarious and perfect for Tony. Jon Favreau knows how to direct a movie. Almost all of his films are great. I totally geeked out after the credits when Samuel L. Jackson showed up as Nick Fury. Ultimates is one of the best comics ever made. I sometimes think comics are too silly but when a series like that shows up it renews my faith that the medium has plenty to offer. Iron Man was one of the first comics I ever read, starting in 1990 with John Romita Jr. doing the art. This is a very techy drawing and it normally takes me around twenty five to thirty layers in Photoshop to accomplish it. You're supposed to collapse them as you work on it, but I get sloppy when I draw.
