Redhead

All throughout the early 80s I loved the character of Phoenix, an X-men mainstay who had fiery red hair and was the most powerful figure in the book. I would draw her constantly, so much so that it was written into my bio in one of my high school yearbooks. I still love the character but my style has changed through the years, and the comic-book rendering I once favored is a little more realistic, based on fashion photos (and quite possibly, shampoo commercials). This is a drawing from over 100 days ago I've revisited, as I have done with other sketches this week. Not fully satisfied with the rendering just yet, but that's the beauty of being able to rework things when I feel like. I'll just revisit it again later.
