Inspired by Mr. Hartwell's most excellent recent take on the character.
I loved his imagined dialog between Stan Lee and Jack Kirby at the inception of the Super Skrull as well:
Stan Lee and Jack Kirby in the Marvel offices, circa 1963:
Jack: "Geez, Stan, we're 17 issues into this book - who are we gonna have 'em go against *this* time? I'm all tapped out!"
Stan: "How about the Skrulls? Fans seemed to like the Skrulls from issue 2, yeah?"
Jack: "Those guys were stupid, Stan."
Stan: "No, wait! What if we took one Skrull and gave him all the powers of the Fantastic Four! He wouldn't be *just* a Skrull...he'd be...a SUP-AH Skrull!"
Jack: (rolling eyes) "Super Skrull. Yeah, right. Okay. Whatever."
Stan: "Excelsior!"
Okay, I give up: I HAVE to know how you do these faces in profile!
I don’t understand the question, Nick …
I can only draw faces, bodies, etc. in straight-on views in HM, yet you seem to be able to do side-on and three-quarter views, all the time!
Ah! These aren’t HeroMachine drawings — all of the “Sketch of the Day” series are hand-drawn custom illustrations I do. They’re not from or in the programs at all, and it’s not possible to recreate these exact same things in any HM version.
Sorry for any confusion!
I feel much less lame, now. Thanks!
Yah, Jeff isn’t going to give our all his hard-earned skill for everyone to use! lol! Nice one Jeff! Liking the Juggernaut too! Glad to see you’re back on track with your S.o.D.’s!
oops .. meant “out” not “our”
