Daily Special #4 - Spiderman/Deadpool

Tuesday, February 8, 2011

Brian had requested that I draw Spiderman or Deadpool next, since they're extremely popular characters (and probably because they wanted to check that I could actually draw male characters). So, rather than doing one or the other, I decided to go with a silly sort of image that uses both.

I don't feel that it's a very strong piece, but Brian seemed to like it and he's the client. In any case, you should go take a look and decide for yourself.

Daily Specials only remain on the Dynamic Forces website for 24 hours, so go check it out now! And if you're reading this blog in the future, follow the link below to recreate what it was like for us primitive homo sapiens from the past, man.

Let me state for the record that I hated drawing Deadpool. You can tell he's been reproduced too many times, because trying to figure out just what's going on with his costume is like playing a game of Whisper-Down-The-Lane.



Sometimes the dark thing around his neck is some kind of collar.

Sometimes it's like a turtleneck.





Sometimes he has ankle cuffs and sometimes they look more like leg warmers.

It's not that his costume is constantly changing, it's more like no one can quite agree on what he's wearing.
Things like that are really frustrating when I'm trying to pin down just what to include so that the character will be recognizable. Spidey was a piece of cake by comparison.
