I'm waiting for a Matte War I can join in on. I really think that's where I can do more. But, in the mean time, here's one I did for my husband. It's not a tribute. Christopher Reeve was his hero.

PS CS, Wacom Graphire, About 20 minutes. still trying to get the drawing thing down. It's easier with a pencil and paper.

Kelli - it took me a minute, but now I see that the cape is thrown over the back of a chair, right? Good one.

Brotje - that is CLASSIC! Good work!

[Kelli]

Yeah... a wheel chair... Just realized I forgot the wheels! OOPS!!!

[Twozzok]

Thany, Cecile -> WOW!
I really like yours :)

But I think the others did really good as well.
Maybe Twozzok overdid it a little with the kids thing ;)

[Ilikesoup]

OMG! Silverwyvern and Cecile -- your ideas would make for teriffic children's books.

Great work so far, gang. I can't wait to post something.

[captain chapo]

You'd think my son's hero would be his dad, maybe? Nope. Long live ice cream.

Painter and maybe about 20 minutes. . . I was out of room.

[Alex Worthy]

Hi folks,
this is my first post.

Also, this drawing took about 30 minutes, using a pen, scanner, painter, and photoshop.

This character, I'm well aware is a major villain, but he's still one of my heroes from my youth and present day.


Photoshop/Wacom. 45 Min.

edit: oops, forgot to mention. This was done in the highly desireable Painter IX software (which I'm just barely starting to learn) in about 30 to 40 minutes.

[crazy3dman]

The kids were too busy today. I'll try to get them back in the game tomorrow. Wanted to get mine in before calling it a night. Photoshop, Wacom, 25 minutes.

[Lingon]

Hi and hello everybody! I think this is my first post ever on CGtalk, though I've been hanging out here for more than a year.
I've been watching all the daily sketches and always wanted my own tablet so I could join the fun. Well, at last i did by a tablet, and here I am.
My first contribution to the daily sketch is the kids greatest heeeerooooo:
TROGDOR: The burninator!!!
http://lingon.port5.com/sketch/Trogdor.jpg

I did not draw the outlines for myself, because I wanted the one and only trogdor (and I'm noot good enough to do it as superb as strongbad).

For all of you who are unfamiliar with trogdor and his friends, make a visit at http://www.homestarrunner.com (http://www.homestarrunner.com/)
and for the trogdor-clip: http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail58.html

Cya all tomorrow,
greets Anton

Well, I have the drawing skills of an 8 year old kid, at least ;)
Mouse, Photoshop CS, bout 45 minutes-1 1/2 hours I think. Utilizes Flaming Pair's LunarCell filter for Photoshop CS to make the planet.

[bealobo]

my hero is shrek's cousin :thumbsup:
not being trogdor, of course

Ok!
1 hour/ photoshop and wacom
I took a toy as a reference.

Wich one do you think is better?
for me it´s difficult to say because I see the color so bright...
can anyone refer me to any book/link about color theory?
thanks
:D

Hey bealobo,

Nice sketch. I like the bottom one better, because there's more contrast. It makes the figure pop better than the one on the top.

[DMageXVII]

Here's my entry, thanks for the inspiration cecile!

PS7, Wacom, Pen and Paper
http://img178.exs.cx/img178/8370/chocobo9yn.jpg

PS: Chocobo isn't really my hero, but i had the sketch handy, either way i'm only looking for a few comments...

Thanks

[MettoolMan]

Chocobo is my hero..

[Illumino]

My hero *sigh* (my boyfriend, yeah cheesy I know, I was going to do Spidey or Trogdor but they were already taken...) wearing his "hero trousers" (aikido hakama) - besides, he could beat Trogdor any day, heh...

Photoshop, about 1.5 hours

[Lingon]

Illumnio, watch your mouth!
It is not wize to boast too much about your boyfriend, especially not when insulting almighty Trogdor the BURNINATOR :twisted:
I'd say Trogdor would win over your boyfriend in the "avatar fight-club" in the sketch forum :D
But, with my drawing skills I'm not the one choosing their faith. I wish you and your boyfriend good luck, may the force be with you! :)

Cheers,
Anton

[DoInferno]

Hmmff.... Let me explain... I made the line drawing with a pencil at the day the thread came out. It was great in my opinion, but i wanted to color it... So i ran out of time completely, and, only today i could work on it... The result in my opinion: Not good...

First of all;
With the outlines: good
With the outline and colors: Good foreground and really bad background...
Without the outlines: More or less foreground and more or less background...

And i had a really big problem to work on the mood... By the way, it was supposed to be a dark room and there should be lightining coming out only from the teddy bear, making the monster go away....

Photoshop, 3h
