It is summer and that means one thing! Block Buster Movies. We have done it before and we are doing it again. This time we are not limiting it to just pencil work. All Mediums are fair game! Give us your best rendition of any Super Hero as if it were YOU that designed them. What would they look like? Would their powers be any different, what about their back story?
Entries are due on the 15th of July!

Here is an example by our own Dark Wanderer:


Back Story: Raised on Parker Ranch in Oak-ridge TN, Close to the Nuclear power plant, Peter's life was about to change. During a massive storm, the water used to cool the rods at the plant escaped and seeped into the basement of the nearby farm. A brown recluse drank from this radio active pool of water that remained on the floor, after which, it returned to it's safe haven under a box. Parker was sent down to the basement to gather Holiday decorations. Upon grabbing an old box, he felt a sharp pain on his hand. He had found the spider and recognized it as the Brown Recluse. Over the next few days he became violently ill with fevers chills and hallucinations. Shortly after his recovery he noticed changes to his body and what he was able to do.
He found he could stick to walls, increased strength and agility, along with a sixth sense to avoid danger. While working in the barn he discovered an ability to create webbing, by accident he was spotted by his uncle Ben. An argument ensued based on his uncle calling him a devil spawn. During this fight, Peter found a terrifying side effect to his powers, a new one as a direct result of the type of Spider that bit him. He spewed forth a form of acidic spray into his uncle's face, causing it to melt and decay in a very rapid manor. Later referred to as an Accelerated Necrosis.
His Uncle dead , and wanted by the Law, Parker fled to New York City dawning a costume to hide his identity to take down crime any way possible. *

* His uncle died before giving the immortalized "With great power comes great responsibility" Speech.

Now this is gonna be fun...

Sounds like a blast (and very cool Spidey reboot, DW )!

Thanks. Like most of the draw off stuff I created, I came up with the background first. I used that as the spring board for the outcome for the art.

A back story? Really? And you think I am lazy just trying to do art... much less think of a new "What if" scenario. "

Back story is optional.this was just an example lol

Dude, we've all seen your work and there's no way I'd qualify it as lazy. Just slooooooow.

Maybe you could go with your
time travelin' tranny idea !

A sloth just pasted him... lol

I had a feeling that this challenge would come up, so I started my piece two years ago. Do you think we could have this challenge again next year... I might be almost done by then.

We had it in 2006... lol I think that is MORE than enough time for even you LOL

Bump

Bump

1 week and 3 days til deadline.

BUMP 6 day til deadline.

Unfortunately, as much as I'd like to, I don't think I'll be participating in this one. I've been far too busy with airbrush projects. Unless, of course, I can pull off some miracle 3 days before deadline ala Jr McDeath.

Dang, I better strap myself in because this appears to be one bumpy forum! Good to hear from ya, DI! While I do believe in miracles {'specially since I seen 'em from Jr! ), at least ya showed up with a good excuse since I know plenty o' folks who was beggin' for challenges that I ain't heard a peep from here.
Now's where I subject y'all to my tale of woe, ... personal problems, battlin' with lawyers, no ideas for the challenge and trying to learn Daz Studio 4 and Genesis (finally) which has misplaced all my stuff, changed much of it's interface and forced me to learn to do a number of things in different manners... STILL, I'm gonna be in. Ya know, it not too late to participate (although time is winding down).

I finally got an idea a day or 2 ago, now let's see which way should I go, Poser 2014 or Daz 4.6...

Good Luck All!

Cool, MB! Glad to hear you're gonna be in! How bout you, DW? Jr?... is it possible? ...or is it same time next year?
... and everybody else, sorry... don't mean to get on yr respective cases... just tryin' to drum up a little participation around here!

I have 5 days. well 4. I am booked this saturday so that knocks out 1 day. I will see what I can do. Can't promise anything.
