These pictures i drew of Marvels Ironman on my long weekend for fun. Don't mind the crappy photography but i'm not the best at taking pictures. Ironman is Anthony Stark who was born in Long Island, N.Y, the son of Howard Stark, a wealthy industrialist and head of Stark Industries, and Maria Stark. A boy genius, he enters the undergraduate electrical engineering program at MIT at the age of 15, graduating at the top of his class. At 21, he inherits his father's company, Stark Industries, after his parents are killed in a car accident. One of Stark's first projects is to buy the company that made the faulty brakes on his parents' car and correct the mechanical problem. In the first version of his origin, Stark visits Vietnam to observe his new mini-transistors assisting the american war effort. Stark is injured by a booby trap and captured by a Vietnamese warlord named Wong Chu. Dying from a piece of shrapnel lodged in his heart, Chu orders Stark, along with a fellow prisoner, the famed physicist Yin Sen, to build weapons for Wong Chu. However, Stark and Yin Sen use the workshop to secretly design and construct a suit of powered armour — an iron exoskeleton that saves Stark's life by keeping his heart beating. The suit gives him tremendous strength, facilitating his escape. Yin Sen sacrifices himself, buying Stark time to charge the bulky suit of armor, and as Iron Man, Stark kills Wong Chu and his men.

Awesome Joe!
Your work shows much maturity, and understanding of subtlety of line, proportion, and values (light and dark) for someone of your age!
Keep 'em coming! The world needs more cool art!
