    1970's stye FTC figure art!

    I created this line art of FTC's Batman based off the old hand drawn comic book ads of the 1970's

    Once I have a dozen or so characters completed I'll combine them into an original 1970's style full page age for FTC's World's Greatest Heroes!

          Looks great. You're really captured the Mego look. I think this will be my new iPad wallpaper.

              That is cool!

              If you did a line of prints, I bet they would be hung in a lot of members' toyrooms.

                Thanks guys! I can definitely make prints down the road for individual characters or the entire thing when completed.

                Question though...I need your opinions! I just did black and white line art for this and filled the colors in with photoshop.

                I also thought about hand coloring with minimal shading. Which do you prefer?

                  I like it as is, reminds me of the Heroes World ads.

                        I think flat color or if you have a way to do dot screens for the color, that might look neat.
                        It's all good!

                          Four color printing style!

                          I changed the colors to more accurately reflect the FTC version of Batman, and added the classic newsprint four color dot matrix to the image. Here's a pic of my original line art too.
