Here's some rough sketches for my August Critique Arena submission, for "Design a Superhero: Draw a character sheet of your original human superhero". I would be super appreciative of feedback, particularly while still in this 'rough' stage! Happy to hear any feedback, but in particular, I'm wondering:

  • Do her powers make sense to you?
  • Do you think the trampoline scene is "too much" for a character sheet?
    --My thinking was to show her using her powers for heroism, as opposed to just showing that she has powers. But character design can indicate heroic traits too... so I wonder if I'm overdoing it (especially with a whole secondary character!)
  • Does she seem unique, appealing, interesting, fun? I worry that she seems a bit plain.

And finally, more generally:

  • How are ya'll interpreting "character sheet"? I feel like it could go a more formal way, with character turn-arounds (front, 3/4, side, back views), or more playful by showing various action poses and annotating important features. There's no call out to do a turn-around in the description, but it does say "character sheet", which is a bit different for Critique Arena than the usual "tell a story".
