hello - i am in this one too - this one will be really great fun.

here is my idea, i will add details later, to keep some funny surprises for you --

my hapless superhero is superjohn - he has obviously never heard of the mandatory naming rule for superheros mentat introduced us to !

superjohn worked quite hard to become superhero - went a lot to the fitness studio to build muscles. he is fit now, very strong and runs fast as lightning, but ... he has got a little sister, her name is mary.

superjohns family is poor, so they cannot have a babysitter and superjohn has to take care of his little sister, so that the parent can go for work -- superjohns education to become superhero and his dress is quite expensive -- well, so he has no chance but taking mary every where he goes. he carries her in a babycarrier on his back.

mary is very very cute ( hehe - i like to have this extra challenge - and her cuteness is obviously not seen in the poor drawing below ) but from time to time she is a real little beast - and thats why superjohn never becomes superhero - blind as a mole he stumbles over every thing :

Yeah, Kokoro, that sketch is pretty amusing. He's kind of like 'Babysitter-Man!':thumbsup:

Well Kokoro I don't know if I would want her nibbling on my ear.................;)

I also don't think I would date her. A bit toooo freaky I think. She seems more beastie then beauty thus far,but with time I think you can bring out her beauty. Right now she seems to be growing out of her Brothers back. But when shown with the backpack I believe my thoughts could change.;)

But as far as modeling goes I think you have a fine creation going here.Good concept.I think if you can get it done to it's finished level it will be very fun to view. Hey maybe if you can make her beautiful enough I'll invite her to the Beach...........;)

See you after another up-date.:beer:

Have you thought about having the little sister create her own make-shift superhero suit. One made of available materials, and that slightly mimicks her older brother's costume.

I don't know if that would destroy her impact as a nagging sister. You could also give her a distinct suit - just thoughts.

Yes, that's a good idea about giving the sister a 'sidekick' costume too.:thumbsup: Like the development so far, especially the faces, Kokoro- the only crit I can think of is to put a few more colours into SuperJ's red costume.:)
