One Sketch #109) The Incredible Hulk

Although, perhaps he isn't always good
He isn't evil, just misunderstood.

Ok - I don't like copying another person's artwork if I can avoid it. To be fair, this I sketched based on a CGI image from one of the films, rather than original artwork from the comments. Basically it was to answer a challenge from a class I taught today, and having made the sketch the temptation to say - that's today's sketch sketched was just too great to resist.

I'm not entirely sure why the Incredible Hulk was suggested as a subject, but ironically he was the star of the comic I used to read every week when I was a kid. Marvel comics didn't really make any kind of impression in the UK until the early-mid 1970s, when they launched a number of British comics reprinting stories from the original American comics from the 60s. I had Mighty World Of Marvel delivered every week. Headline story was always the Hulk here, whom I liked. Middle pages were Daredevil - not bad. Third feature, the Fantastic Four, whom I loved.

Been a while, hasn't it?  Don't worry, I haven't given up sketching. No, I just haven't got round to posting anything. Now, ...
