One thing I want to move away from is adding the permanent scowl or angry look to the cowl. They do that now because of the comics. Artists tended to draw his facial expressions into the cowl, which isn't realistic, it's artistic. It works in the comics, but in the real world, even if the actor under it is jovial, he looks mad. I had that in mind when I created the first cowl. I wanted it to form to his face, but I didn't want it to look like molded rubber. I was not completely satisfied with it when I was done, but it worked for what it was. There are issues with the cowl and the body armor that I didn't completely solve when this was done, so that is my main concern. I want to redo this to solve those issues that I didn't have enough experience to solve when I made this.

 

If I had a nickle for ever time a woman told me to get lost, I could buy Manhattan.
