Space Ghost

Here is the finished pinup I did of Space Ghost (after Loston Wallace's Superman)

Looks good. I like the colors too.

Thanks for the comment, Rene.

Are you using MS or PS? Do you have Frendon's Brushes?

Nice finishes, sirandal. I really like the ghost, all lines and colours.
The cape doesn't look that strong though, it lacks strength in the strokes, and also is a bit shapeless. For me it looks like a different style from the main figure and brings some inconsistency to your piece. But this might be subjective.

The linework was mainly in manga studio.

No.

Yeah I probably didnt get it right. SG's cape has weird wavy scallops and is gossamer and even translucent (at least the original version that I was inspired by.) I know for sure the lines are a little shaky, but they are thin and broken on purpose (but perhaps misguidedly so.) The shakiness on top of that was just fatigue I reckon.

You should check Frendon's brushes out. Best five bucks I ever spent.

Just make sure you google "Frenden brushes".

Don't know if "Frendon" would turn up any results.

My bad. Just checked him in google and half the pics have the same 3 legged amoeba looking cape:-) So your work is genuine mate, and I was proven comicbook ignorant again.

Also, I get now that the double lines on the cape are supposed to create some sort of a mirage effect and that looks a bit tricky to pull out right. Something like two shifted and differently warped versions of the cape on top of each other. Which, I think you got right in the top half, but I think you need more crosses between the to contours in the bottom half. Anyway, good stuff.

Great piece, sirandal! I'm a HUGE fan of Spaaaaaaaace Ghoooooost myself and was actually toying with the idea of a SG drawing, but nothing I could do could touch this! And I really like how you have him framed by the circle instead of just free-form floating out in space; gives the piece some nice boundaries!
