I would but I'm not familiar with the subject. I did a search and it pulls up just about every DC character. lol Is that what it basically is?

If Marcelino is not up for it , I'll take you on.

Marcelino, best way to understand KC is to read it. But basically, it is the entire DCU 20 someodd years in the future. A human group, led by Luthor, seeks to rid the world of superhumans by any means necessary. The next generation of super beings is running rampant, without guidance, and todays heroes, all but Batman have retired. But when a tragedy occurs, Diana convinces Clark the world needs Superman again, and he comes back to steer the new kids right, or put them down. The story is told through the perspective of a preacher, Norman McCay, who is asked by the Spectre to watch, and judge superhuman kind. It's actually a very religious themed story, and somewhat Superman centric, a very recommended read.

Anywho, if you're not up for it, I'd be happy to take you on aj.

Kingdom Come

OK, i finished a little early. I'm getting a little faster at this. I was able to ink it twice and color it twice. It could be better but I'm happy with the results. Whenever you are ready for the poll I'm good.

good one marcelino, you're getting better real quickly

[marcelino]

Thanks slam! I'm not sure how much better but for sure quicker.

I started with a decent pencil sketch which I scanned and started coloring it in photoshop. That didn't go so well. I blamed it on the pencils just because (well I guess maybe because I wanted to ink it traditionally) and ended up laying some cleaner pencils on some bristol. At that point I scanned it again just in case and proceeded to ink it with a quill pen. I more or less was OK with it but when I scanned it, it really brought out some defects. I attempted to reink a part of it in photoshop for comparison and was happier with those results. That lead to these inks and colors shown.
