#1 – Optiman
And we’re off!
With Optiman we really wanted to get a sense of childlike wonder – as though you were not only entering a nostalgic world of comic heroes that you vaguely remember from when you were growing up, but also a sense that this character was feeling the same.
You just know, deep down, that this is a good guy – no hidden agenda, no borderline psychosis – just out and out one of the good guys!

Hey Jamie. If this is the style for your posts (great idea) just post full size. At that size it will work great.
Don’t bother captioning your image, and just uploaded at full 600 pixel width.
Great start!
Thanks, Tyler – will do from now on.

I’m digging the your style man. Slick and powerful. Optiman is Optirad!
Strong, square jaw, barrel chest, upright posture. Great design for a posterboy for superheroics
Nice! I totally dig it! Great idea for the bio too. SHAZAM!
Excellent first character! Love the bio info idea
ArrOOoo!
Thank you all for the kind comments!
With Optiman the idea was to have a superhero as imagined by a 12 year old boy brought to life – think Jonathan nailed the hyper sense of the character!
