So i kinda changed things around a bit more

i wasnt quite happy with the first couple versions [while yeah, i still like 'em they just didnt quite feel "done". ever happen to you?]

so yeah. Kinda redid some things. I originally had the clouds as just a kind of gradient [didnt want to distract from superman too much] but it did end up looking kind of plain. so i went in and gave them a little form. tried giving the rest of the planet some kind of a water texture but it didnt end up working well here.

so yeah. i dropped the yellow light in the top right. ended up looking too green and eh. just didnt feel like it fit. so i dropped it. added some bright rim light to the right side. to really make him pop a little more. adjusted some of the contrast so the rendering gives him a little more form.

tweaked the space bkg a little bit. that one bright star by his head was distracting me too much so i ended up losing it

blah blah

i like this one better :P


hope y'all do too

Wow! Striking!

It was about time I uploaded an icon for my profile. The profile I've selected is something that will be familiar to all fans of the popular "Transformers" brand. I'm a fan of the brand myself, so it's safe to say that I'm proud of my new icon. :-)

Very nice! I like the lasers, and the starfield is really good! Did you have a particular method for that?
And, I might be missing something obvious - why is it called "Kirby Superman"? Is it based on one that Jack Kirby did?

I totaly love this picture, you did an amazing job (a superjob in fact).
The only thing that bothers me is that there is no prints to buy :D

The time I've lived, I've seen some horrors, scary behavior, and a couple of fashion trends I constantly pray to forget. But I see people try. I see them try to be better. ~Angel

Every passing hour brings the Solar System forty-three thousand miles closer to Globular Cluster M13 in Hercules — and still there are some misfits who insist that there is no such thing as progress.
