Late start and hopefully I'll actually get the time to at least come close to finishing this one! :argh:

So, on to our hero's biography...

Born on the distant planet of Fabio Secundus, young Paul Mu'Ahahah'Dipsalot was a rather scrawny young thing. People picked on him a lot. Sohe did what any skinny young man would. He grew his hair. And beautiful hair it was, too....

When Paul was but a young teen, the warlike Fashionistas from CaliUberAlls (an odd planet with seventeen leather belts circling it like the rings of Saturn) attcked with swift and deadly force. It seemed that the Fabio Secundians idea of dinner wear (a posing thong) was not quite up to the standards of the Fashionista people, and their leader (Jooooane Reeverzz) decided they were a blight on the taste of the universe. Needless to say, busy as they were with posing and oiling up, the Fabio Secundians didn't stand a chance.

At the last moment, Paul's father (Marloin Brand-O) put Paul in one of his several four thousand gallon empty jugs of posing oils and shot poor Paul into space.

Several days later, Paul crash landed into a beauty supply manufacturing plant in downtown Detriot, where he tumbled headlong into a large vat of hair bleach. His long, luxurious brown locks immediately turned white blonde and he grew to seventeen times his original size. Unfortunately, as the posing oil jug had no breathing apparatus, Paul had been holding his breath for several days now. So, while his body had grown, his brain had been dead for several hours already. But something as small as this would not stop the newly huge Paul.

With his newfound strength came newfound responsibility. And newfound hotness. I mean, damn he looked but good! So, it was with this sense of overwhelming responsibility that he decided to become a super hero. Of course, Earth has so many nifty shiny things that reflect his perfection back at him - I mean, seriously - how could anybody expect him to do anything other than stop and pose? And oil up.

And so, the Earth was introduced to its' newest superhero - Mr.Universe!

Okay, and now for my crappy sketch...

Dem's some HUGE pecs!:D

Great match up to the concept sketch so far. Brilliant stuff. He looks a little squarish, but that seems to look quite good. Almost stylised.:thumbsup:

Thanks for the kind comments! Yeah, the squarish-ness is actually something I may pump up as I tweak the model. Which will hopefully happen this weekend. Should have a head on him by Monday!

Will post. :wavey:
