Artist's Comments

For the letter "I"(for DC comics) I chose to draw two characters with mastery over intense cold. 1st up is Ice, who unfortunately was killed by the Overmaster's Cadre, but I wanted to draw her anyway! Her 1st appearance(as Ice) was in Justice League International #19. What I did not originally know, what that she was actually the daughter of a magical ice king, somewhere hidden deep within the mountains of Norway. This would explain why her name is Tora Olafsdotter. Next, we have the villainous Icicle, who is the 2nd villain to bear that codename. His 1st appearance was in Infinity, Inc. #34, and even the good guys(JSA) have attempted to recruit this guy! **I am currently in the process of producing a colored version of this piece as well.**

Why thank you, as I like how her hair came out as well! It's just too bad she's dead 'n all...but with death in comics having no real meaning anymore, she may just be back next week!:lol: :)

I agree with your friend up there. You did do a really great job on her hair. It does look rather soft and fluffy! Great job on her form too. Cool effects to your signature and shooting from his hand as well. Faboo detail on his face! Very very nice work! I'll keep my eyes peeled for J.

Thank you very much! ;) I always try and encorporate my signature in with the piece...as long as it makes sense! I'm pleased to see that you like how this piece came out! :)

Aww... This really came out well, hon. The pose itself is great. I always love seeing more than one character in a picture. Always adds a second ambiance to the picture, you know?

There's... a few things that really stand out to me on this picture.... First the things that I simply adore--

Ice's hair and facial structure. Her hair is simply lovely. SO very light and soft. You've done a great job with capturing it. Her face-- awww. :aww: It came out so cute! :giggle:

As the the facial features of Icicle.

Icicle's head however seems to be too small in comparison to the rest of his body. Icicle's body is also giving me issues... His torso looks oddly unnatural. I mean as to where his ab mucles would be and the way he can be seen "width" wise. Maybe.... he should have been slimmed down a little bit? I'm not sure...

His right leg.... kinda pops out a little too far... Like his upper thigh has too much length on it.

Ice's form is beautiful. :clap: It's a very saucy pose. :giggle: Though, her forearm is definitly way too short. And her crotch...

I notice you use the same shape with your males when you draw them. You've gotta remember she's a female doesn't exactly have that "package" You know? She's a she and therefore has to stay a bit more feminine. ;)

I like it. I think I would have liked to have seen a little more muscle definition (either by lines or shading) on her right thigh muscle but other than that, I think you did an awesome job! :silentkitty:

P.S. I'm particularly fond of the flames from his hand! I really like the way you do flames/lightening!

~And um... YOUR FACE!~
:iconnivek2:
Her right(thigh muscle), or our right? Thanks so much for the nice comment, and the effect coming from his hand is actually super concentrated sub-zero temps. focused directionally by his hand. :)

Wow! What a great response! ;) I'm trying to add more than one character when the ones I have chosen aren't so readily well known as say Superman:superman: ! I was really pleased with how Ice came out over all, and especially her cuteness factor! She's one of my fav. faces in recent memory. I do seem to have a recurring problem with the male heads that I draw, as they often seem to end up too small in relation to the rest 'o their body...definately something I still need to work on. His right leg actually looked rather normal in size until Ice stood in front of him, and then it suddenly looked different visually(I hate it when that happens). Which forearm of hers is too short? The one with her hand in her hair, or the other one? As to the female crotch, I never really noticed I was drawing a comparitive "package" as it were...so it's an area that I'll have to "study" much more thuroughly in detail! ;) ;) :lol: Thanks for such an awesome comment and great critique...it's exactly what I'm looking for w/these "advanced" options! :D
