Turnaround Tuesdays!

Welcome back to the second week of my new-and-improved (or at least consistently updated) blog. It's Turnaround Tuesday!

Turnarounds are a great way to get a feel for a character and to see if you can get a handle on their look and personality, even more than a pin-up. Last week I kicked off with the turnaround that started my interest, Wolverine. (You can check that one out on my Deviant Art page here) This week...

Wonder Woman!

Wonder Woman is one of those characters that's so iconic it can be hard to find a 'voice' for them. That's how this week's turnaround was for me. There's a litttle bit of Garcia-Lopez here, a little bit of Hughes there, a dash of Jimenez, Fradon, Dodson.... on and on. Overall, I'm pretty happy with the results: the anatomy's wonky in a couple places and she's not quite as 'on model' as she is in my head, but... a noble first attempt, I'd say.

I'm wondering, dude--if you think the anatomy is wonky in a few places, why not fix it

Next time! I needed to stop working on it, in the sense that the issues I was having weren't getting corrected (repeatedly) and too much messing (however necessary!) just seemed...frustrating.

Next time.
