Hi All,

Welcome to Snoopy 101 Cartoon challenge, my name is Brian David and it is my pleasure to host. Though I am no expert on this....

Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster

Faster then the speed of light....More powerful then a locomotive....Look up in the sky....it's a bird...it's a plane...it's Superman....created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, comic book heroes were now born. In June of 1938 Superman appeared in six different comic books...it also had it's own newspaper comic strip, radio show, and animated cartoon series.

Batman was next to follow...to be followed by Wonder Women, Spider man, Captain America , Captain Marvel...and the list goes on....Although Super heroes has been very popular in many forms of media they seems to have found their way into the pages of comic books to be the most popular.

My Challenge

And this will test your creative side......Simply create one of your very own Super heroes.....and for those of you that would like to draw one of your favorite classics.... please feel free to do so.

You may use any type of medium you like but please no computer graphics...you may use your computer for text if you wish..

I hope you all enjoy this challenge, Happy drawings.

Brian

I love it -- count me in!

What a great idea!! you can't imagine how many super heroes sketches i've done for my brother, most of them had probably disappeared in some corner of his bedroom...
Got to do some to the challenge so count me in too hihi

Ok,if i find the time and muse to stop my realistic drawing stuff I'll join in

I'm in as well; especially since my brand new scanner will be connected soon.

Are you allowed to post drawn Super Villains?
Cause I've got a bunch of them.

Hi Ernest...great to see you..I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Hi Mitamy....your brother is very lucky to have you for a sis...you are very kind and talented....can't wait to see your wonderful drawings.

Welcome to the challenge....Nuke O and trying I look forward to your drawings

Hi Drawer32...welcome to the challenge....super villains are fine but please keep in mind ....all drawings should be fresh for the challenge........the purpose of these challenges is to practise our drawing skills....creativity skills and naturally have fun..


Happy drawings, Brian.

here is my ideal hero.... not average but I like him better!!!.... Brian I just love your challenges!...they always let me put my own spin on things!!!!

here is his "story"
Daniel Adams is a typical high school student, he has little friends and confides himself in his best friend Sam who helps him discover his super hero abilities. Once He gets the hang of them all (flying, super strength, mind reading) He helps a little town in Texas become indapendent from the rest.

Well if you have a super hero they have to have a story right? lol!!!


oh and his name is PH......I don't really know what that is but I know it is something we check in our hot tub!!!!

....I.D....this put the biggest smile on my face......and thanks for your kind words about the challenges....that makes me happy ...I forgot to mention these challenges being Cartoons can also give us the opportunity to practise our creative writing skills...you sure did great with that....I love the storey behind P.H. and your comments about the hot tub made me laugh out loud.. Fantastic character, I hope you will continue with him.

Happy drawings, Brian.

nice challenge! if you dont mind im gonna try also... im still beginning but lets see what i come with

Thanks drk.....welcome to the challenge....please don't be shy....I look forward to your drawings.

Brian.

Here's my superhero!



He has the power to make himself invisible.

That's too funny

Since he is invisible drawer32 I have no comment.....but I did have a good laugh... if he re appears please post him...lol..

Here is a quick drawing I did this morning......I really think Snoopy is a super hero....since he would dress up as a world war ace and fly in his Sopwith camel to fight the Red Baron...


Edited thanks to Ernest.....Sopwith camel is his plane......what was I thinking...lol...

Happy drawings, Brian.

ID: Wow, a whole story behind your drawing! Thank you for sharing. Drawer32: That is a really clever superhero-drawing! And Brian: your Snoopy is cute when he is angry. He will get the Red Baron another day!

Here is my superhero. She has the power of levitation. And if she doesn't seem particularly superhero-like in this drawing then it is because she is practising her powers!

Hahah! Yes, well. The hardest thing about drawing invisible people is that it is hard to visualize on how to draw them but once you get the hang of it, it's not that hard anymore.

Tips; On how to draw invisible people:
Think of air!

what a funny challenge, drawer32 that invisible man made me laught, shor it wasn't because of his face but he really is funny (and super)
independentdrawer: great story it gives even more life to the cartoon
Hrymfaxe: lol who would tell super heroes need practice?
Brian:D Snoopy is the heroe from the heroes , he never rest, even in your draw he still in action

Marie thanks for your comments....It is great to see you....what a wonderful drawing...she looks deep in thought with her special super powers.. I love your drawings......glad you joined in.

Hero from the heroes...Thanks Mitamy..I like that...Snoopy is your friend for life now..

OK, here's mine: with apologies to Mike Myers, it's Middle Aged Man!
[attachmentid=7827]
He has a pot belly, a double chin, and a badly receding hairline, but he has amazing powers of knowledge and experience: he can tell you how to get the best deal on a used car, how to regrout a tub, how to buy life insurance...

Ernest...I love it!...what a great idea.

A week is going and i had to do something to get the wave lol
maybe next one will be more... just more

Great Ernest pretty cool

..Wow Mitamy so great to see you! this is a wonderful drawing of Superman....Snoopy is jealous.. I find him not easy to draw and I always have trouble with the letter "S" ....you did fantastic!

Here is another character of mine...heartbreak..I recently broke a heart and think of myself as this


[attachmentid=7889]

Mitamy, that's an awesome Superman!

thanks for making this another fun challenge every one.

Happy drawings, Brian.

Here is my surper hero clown. She makes people laugh with a single stumble, (I didn't say she was graceful). She can run faster , fall harder and laugh louder than superman.

I am at work now....working to midnight and having one of those days ......but when I saw this Cyn I laughed out loud.....what have I started now....super hero clowns too Gosh I love ya Cyn ... this is fantastic!

I have to add to this thread. Just because my wife is my super hero!!!

(Sorry David, I posted in the wrong thread earlier)

Hi T-bird...nice to see you!......this is really beautiful I bet your wife loves it........I am curious how you did this and if you used a computer program for this.?


just to go over some rules of the challenge.....you may use your computer for coloring , graphics ...etc. or photo shop....I really want to keep this fun......but please for the purpose of this challenge.... post your original drawings first as I did with S.C.

Thanks for posting this T-bird......what a beauty.

Brian.

T-bird does a lot of air brushing so I figure that it is some beautifully done air brush art.
Er, em, maybe?

I only used the computer for coloring. I used illustrator pro 11.0. Then scanned onto a shirt. It is for my mine and my wife aniv. Here is original sketch.

Cyn--- Actually, as much as I would love to. I have never picked up an airbrush. I just use the puter.

Brian---- Thanks for the comments! You know I couldn't resist jumping in a challange in some way.

Well T-bird, it just looked so good that maybe you should take up airbrushing.

Here is my contribution. His name is The Lynx. More poses will follow.

That must be quite a program T-bird and thanks for posting your drawing....I am glad to see you join the challenges again.

Cyn I had to learn more about air brushing... I admit I have little knowledge of it... ....sure seems like quite a process....but the end result sure looks amazing from what I have seen.

Trying welcome to the challenge ....it is great to see you.... I admire your drawings....This is very creative.... I would like to hear more about Lynx.....great drawing! I look forward to more.

Brian.

Brian---Thanks for the welcome and comments.


Cyn----I would love that oppertunity, however it will be a long time before I can find the time to pick up an airbrush. Thank you for the compliment though.

Great drawings everyone!

I just had to join this challenge
Here's my superhero drawn while eating lunch

[attachmentid=7938]

Very Cute Siksno.... very very cute!


I could not forget about Snoopy's closest friend and confidant.....Woodstock.....he is said to be so small that he is the only baseball player that gets an automatic walk if the ball rolls over him.. Well not any more... just as long as he wears that cape I gave him he now has special powers.

Here is my super hero. Pigpen sucks up the dirt and dust like a magnet leaving the house nice and clean. Right now he is in disguise without a cape or hero clothes. He just has a few tale-tale signs of his last housecleaning caper.

: I love it Cyn....so that is why he is so dirty....you have made him busy cleaning. ..funny they actually used him in Vacuum cleaner commercials... Adorable drawing .... you always put a smile on my face.

Here is a version of my updated superhero.

Profile
Superhero Name: the Lynx
Real Name: Don Green
Age: 46
Height: 6ft2
Weight: 230 pounds
Super Powers: jump to great heights, super strength, sensitive to any odour, see clearly in darkness, hear the slightest sound from a distance, terrify enemies with the firery glare in his eyes
Other Abilities: His aim is impeccable. He can throw any object and hit his target dead center. In addition, Don is fluent in 5 languages.
Background:
Upon retiring from teaching abroad, Don Green returns to his native Canada and builds a huge house near a lake in the mountains. While hiking one morning, he has a strange encounter with a lynx. Although he is not completely sure what happened, he soon realizes that he somehow adopted all the wild powers of a lynx.

I love the story line, trying. That's a good one. I love the look on Don Greens face.

Awww this is fantastic trying....great drawing and I also like the storey outline you gave him along with his special super powers I hope you continue with him....and thanks for posting this for us to see.

great story trying and drawing too, right on an action scene

This is my take on the heroes.
