I thought for this week I'd try one of those poses where Thing gazes disgustedly at his hands and wonders how cosmic rays managed to change the number of fingers on them.
I was nearly done this one when I realized the Thing only wore this costume for like 3 months in the summer of '96 before being killed by Onslaught in that year's big crossover event. He got better, of course, but this costume was never seen again. Made an impact on a young me, anyway!
The Thing is definitely a favourite of mine, and I never pass up a chance to draw his ever-lovin' mug. Of course, he always needs something to clobber, which gives me an excuse to draw another character I can never pass up on - Dr Doom. I did this drawing pretty fast and scratchy, so hopefully you can tell what's going on. If not, it's just Ben handing Victor an average Tuesday afternoon humiliating defeat.
I rarely get to draw Ben Grimm. What I wanted to avoid was making him a series of round, rocky lumps, which is easy to do with the Thing. Maybe that takes away from his character. You be the judge. Either way, this was fun!
