                  Thanks a lot!I never took any drawing lessons,just draw for pleasure for many
                  years and NEVER showed it to anyone until a married couple friend of mine asked me:"Apart from music,what do-you do?" So I mentioned comics and the
                  gal asked me to show it to them and I finally gave in...
                  They said that it was "professionnal stuff"(at least for them) and that I should
                  release it...so...here we are

                  I admire the work of Joe Sinnott and Jack Kirby (Marvel Hulk) and the bronze age comics;I'll release a new number each month (I already have a lot made that I started in 2005!)with great characters and villains.

                  The story and drawings only gets better...wait and see...

                    Thanks;the only comics I read and own are my precious Marvel HULK (I have almost everything from start to 200 and so...I'm in my forties so I grew up with the Bronze age-Silver age comics and always liked the characters but I
                    always was puzzled by the stories (a bit too complex sometimes).
                    I also read TINTIN and the story there is easy-to-read so I guess I added a bit of both in my stuff.The faces are more TINTIN inspired with a black dot for
                    the eyes instead of Marvel more detailed facial work...

                          I like what your doing Al.
                          What I do. I draw a character picture in pencil. Then I scan it with my scanner. I use a program called Irfanview (can get it free on Download.com) to turn my pencil marks into black lines. Basically enhancing the contrast to bright white and black. Then I re-save it as a Bitmap file.

                          After I do that, I drag the Bitmap file into simple Photoshop and I can color the character any color I was (usually having to touch up some black lines) that will allow me to create colors.
                          Then when I am done, I usually add backgrounds by doing a Google search and manipualting the background so I can plop my character onto it.

                          See some of my out comes-----> CLICK HERE

                          I would love to draw a picture of your Atom Man for fun and send it to you. Once you get my process down it becomes a fun side hobby to bring your characters to life.
