Is he a superhero?

Thanks Stacey, Ry and Rich. I appreciate the kind words. I'm taking the workshop in an effort to get away from my knee-jerk comic-book approach to realism. But the extremely observant Oscar Grillo has exposed me for the fraud I am. Thanks for keeping me humble, Professor.

Truth is the model had chisled features, very much in the traditional comic-book vein. Very angular.

Lots of fun. I hope it gets better.

P.S.-

Jeff Shelly asked me if one of them was a "Police Sketch". Guess which one and win a prize!

You gotta love Shelly, he's so sensitive.
