I was completely blown away when I visited the new Forbidden Planet store in Glasgow for the first time today! When you walk in, you're met with a giant graphic of Superman, as drawn by Frank Quitely from All Star Superman - arguably, the greatest Superman story ever told. Quitely's work is everywhere in the store. As well as the giant Superman, his artwork also fills the wall of the stairwell, and he's even contributed the chalk outline to the Batman tribute area. I felt really inspired to draw something inspired by his work tonight, but how do you do justice to it? I don't really think you can. Instead I opted to ink and colour some of his pencil work. I found the pencils for this pic online. Inked and coloured it in Photoshop. My shadows/highlights are (once again) all over the place, but I had fun doing it! Frank Quitely's exhibition in the Kelvingrove Art Gallery in 2017 was a massive factor in getting me back into comics. His stuff is the pinnacle of the medium of comics, if you ask me! . . #frankquitely #dccomics #superman #manofsteel #dc #forbiddenplanet #ink #inkdrawing #art #photoshop #illustration #allstarsuperman https://www.instagram.com/p/B48Qrd7hnkg/?igshid=rmkpkd6hu59m
