Red Son The Animated Series

Description

My first work for 2013 :D Actually I was making it during the New Year's Eve, since, meh, I don't care about all that partying much, and I like working on vectors at night :D

First some explaining: For those who don't know, this vector is based on story arc "Red Son" which tells an alternative story of Superman who's shuttle lands not in Kansas but in Ukraine during the Cold War, thus he becomes the icon for U.S.S.R. and all the socialism. It's great story, which retells the origin of iconic hero, rewinds classic characters (Lex Luthor as US president, Batman as Russia's freedom fighter and so on), and although i'm not Supes fan, I freakin' love it. Especially his logo with "S" symbol formed with hammer and sickle - that's just some neat idea.

The costume's colour scheme isn't exactly as seen in the comics - I had to do few modifications, because I didn't liked it when I was trying too much on doing similar pattern so I have tweaked few things (belt is entirely red, black shoes and undies instead of dark grey). AND of course it's traced from artwork of Superman: TAS ( [link] ).

I decided to make 2 versions: with normal eyes, and pissed off mode, where his eyes turns red as if slighlty before he's about to shoot laser beams. The second version is created for my own purpose since I'm planning to have a t-shirt with this image on the back, and Supes hammer and sickle emblem on front of said shirt - I was promising myself this t-shirt for a long time, good to have this on finally made :D
