Human Torch



I said that I completed Mark Waid's run of the Fantastic Four a little while back.  However, I am still jonesing for more Fantastic Four.  I drew up the Human Torch.

I really like this picture because I have had a problem drawing fire.  Fire is weird because it is not a solid, but you need to draw it like it has mass to it.  Most of the time, when I draw fire, it looks flat.  That is why here, I treated fire like I am shadowing something thin, like paper.  I also made sure that the little flames in the fire have shadows in them, so they give the flames more depth.

The Torch was done with a G2 gel pen, Papermate Flair, and a Sharpie.
