This is a bigger deal than some of you might think, because Superman is one of the heroes in the DC Universe who keeps his secret identity pretty damn secret, because as probably the most powerful and influential person on earth, a lot of people do not wish him well - and would jump at the chance to hold people dear to him as leverage.

Yet, he trusts this poor, scared little kid. To comfort him, and entrust him with his biggest secret - just as Billy did for him.

I tried to do a quick write up of my general approach to painting, please feel free to write back if this is too general or not quite helpful, or not quite what you meant by painterly! To expand on the infographic: I always begin painting from the midtone on a single layer (different layers for different objects, though, so one for skin, one for shirt, one for pants, etc). I generally begin rendering shadows and major plane changes first, then going in to add light. I don’t recommend working from your lightest values backwards to your darks, as your brush strokes (especially if your brush blends at all) may not be as effective as helping to describe your form as they could be!

it’s almost as if men are used to seeing women in film through a male gaze where they are sexualized and objectified for male pleasure and approval.??

huh anyway MEN are weak and ladies enjoy Mary Elizabeth Winstead looking hot and powerful as Huntress

I know this isn't specifically about Harley Quinn, but since it's her movie, I gotta make the comparison. I mean I wonder why all men were drooling over this Harley

But I havent heard a single male praise for her hotness since the trailers for her movie came out and they find out now she looks like this

I MEAN

I W O N D E R W H Y

JUST SOME THOUGHTS! I don’t really like the “go from the top up” advice on drapery/clothes - if you’re having difficulty try it like this!
