"Fleischer Superman Statue Sketch"

Size: 8.5" x 11"
Medium: Pen and Marker on Paper
Artist: Tom Key

This is a sketch I did a few years back  which was influenced by the wonderful Max Fleischer Superman cartoons of the 1940's. They're some of the best animated shorts ever done, and still hold up well after 60 years!
I was trying to bring together the Fleischer style with the more modern Bruce Timm style into a sort of a hybrid form. I think it works well, but perhaps it would be better to do a statue of this in the Fleischer style only.
