Constantine

Posted Jan 8, 2014, 9:14:43 AM UTC

My first time drawing John Constantine. Just got into the New 52 version of him when I drew this, and I love his character :) Gonna get Hellblazer from the library when I get time. Till then, I thought it'd be fun to draw a few head shots and a full body pose of him to get warmed into his character :)

  Thank you Constantine is a very cool character. He deals a lot in dark magics and cults so he's a shady character who has glimses of decency. He's very interesting to read about. He's an anti hero so he's not the typical Superman type though. IT's interesting to watch him fall, and try not to fall into the darkness and become evil, and how he handles each situation as it comes TuT

  Yes, it does sounds interesting. As usual I only saw some movie and it wasn't intriguing at all (oh wait was it with Keanue Reeves, is it THAT character? o.o)
  I don't like too much the Superman kind of heroes guys (though I found out lately, he is not as shallow as he first seemed). My favs actually are Batman, the silent, obsessed, smart guy with his darkness and Tony Stark, another smart millionare but opposite in nature: egoistic show-offy bastard haha. Then again Pepper is the one who makes him loveable the most, she compliments him so well. XD
  I like Spiderman/Parker as well, being a less bulky, goofy kid and often kind of a looser.
  So yeah, Constantine sound intriguing. o.o

  Yeah- they got the hair colour so wrong ^^; They're making a tv show out of him apparently, and it looks WAY more accurate.
  
  I'm a fan of Bats, Ironman, and Spidey too Superman isn't so much shallow- he can be written as a vanilla character. IT's cause he's the avatar of American justice in the DCU, so he can come across as a Gary Stu (which he sort of is). He can be written well though, and I've read interesting Superman comics where his definition of 'right' is really interesting to see him achieve

You are getting so good at faces now. These came out great. His standing pose is nicely done as is his lighting a cigarette pose.
