Colored Cover (Throw Away)

Okay, this is another cover picture  that I drew and colored with prima colors.  Yes, those are the colors of Our Hero's costume.  He's a hero, I never said he was a fashion plate.  I actually did this image last year and was not happy with it.  As you can tell, Our Hero is still just not quite right, although I kind of like the sum of the whole parts (whatever the hell that means). 

What don't I like about it?  Well, I still don't think I have Our Hero down pack.  I know what you are thinking.  How are you trying to complete a book when you don't even have you main character down to the way you like him?  

DON'T JUDGE ME!

Anyway, this picture kind of gives you a better idea about the design of Our Hero's costume.  The front of it make one great big, misshaped H.  I thought it was pretty cool.  I think I will do some post comparing Our Hero's costume to some more classic super Hero costumes that have stood the test of time.  What do you think?

Anyway, I don't think Our Hero is lovable enough, just yet....at least not in this image.  I don't think I have completely capture the level of naive, vulnerability that I want him the have.  

I know you are probably wondering who the little boy is too.  Yeah, I have not officially introduced him to you yet, but he is a key figure in the story of Our Hero.  Trust me.  What do you think of the kid?  Cute?  Likable?
