Amalgam Contest # 43 : Superman & God of War
I really wish I could draw cause this is a very interesting and i already have ideas spinning in my head
This is the best I can do at this moment, I would have put more time into it but I got a busy couple of weeks so this is the best I can hand in at the moment.
@The Lobster : very good for setting up the stage, damn, you and Dom blow me away with these speed feats. Amazing. "I would take longer but I'm always working or at school. I'm going to get a break so hopefully the next contest I enter I can actually put a good weeks work into.
" @The Lobster : I was thinking the exact same thing "Great minds think alike I guess.
" @EGoD said:" @GrandSymbiote94: That's not the only thing I did in that drawing, besides the obvious S tattoo ;) "I know I like seeing great minds work if that counts :) hehe, I'm trying to decipher the writing on the sword. "
Well I hope you have your Kryptonian dictionary handy, I'm not sure if all of it came through that well in the scan though
" @tonis said:well I did study Krytonise secretly through high school by hiding my comics behind their books." @EGoD said:Well I hope you have your Kryptonian dictionary handy, I'm not sure if all of it came through that well in the scan though "" @GrandSymbiote94: That's not the only thing I did in that drawing, besides the obvious S tattoo ;) "I know I like seeing great minds work if that counts :) hehe, I'm trying to decipher the writing on the sword.

I'm gonna just guess and stab at it... SUPERMAN.
Awesome job going that much into the details my friend, very impressive :)

Yes, it does spell SUPERMAN. It's funny I'm on yahoo beta talking with a friend and I said that I knew you'd notice the runes on the weapon and probably be the one to figure it out, I guess I have to take back my previous comment about you not having a great mind, lol.
"@soundbite: Well I can say, great minds think alike since you're not Tonis (ha ha ha just kidding!). That's actually the first thing that popped in to my head so I just went with it. "
yeah, I had downloaded my Kryptonian font and everything, but I was going to put it on the "skirt" part instead. Oh well, I'm going to see if I can come up with something different.
Know the frustration." I really wish my art could be put onlins... i need a scanner! "
A decent digital cam or phone with a little imaging crop can also do the job in a pinch ;)

Just be careful, once EGoD knows you understand Krytonian he'll start bugging you to find out Kara's number, I'm sure of it :)
Finally! I keep missing the deadlines that is why I have been M.I.A these past few challenges. But I have plenty of time and plenty of ideas...IT'S ON!!

Can't wait to see what you whip up on this mix, and if you got anything from March that you wanna show off throw it in the March Artist Showcase, still got about 13 hours to get something in.
Would love to see your work in there. :)

LOL! I don't need to speak Kryptonian to get her number, she gives it out for free, at least to me she did.
OK...bear with me. I am not a writer due to my typos and grammatical mistakes. I just have good ideas, but not always able to put them to paper. So this is my entry....hope you like it
Born the son of a philosopher and a teacher, The man once known as KAL-TOS had the soul of a warrior. He grew to become the bravest and fiercest warrior of the city of Krypton
Kal lead the soldiers of Krypton on numerous raids and battles and was victorious time and time again. His legend would reach far distant lands and
many a warlord would test their mettle against him in mortal combat. He was soon given the name the Super Man
Until 22nd year of birth his estranged father tried to warn Kal of a great disaster that will befall the mighty city of Krypton. Drunk off of youthful bravado and battle tested confidence, he did not
listen to his father's warning . He thought his father to be weak and disowned his family. A few months later Kal faced his greatest foe in General Zod and his merciless forces
Zod and his horde cut a path through the soldiers of Kyrpton and Kal found himself beaten and near defeat by the hands of Zod himself
Kal has battled many battles and murdered and slaughtered many in the name of Krypton. he has conquered and he bathed in the blood of his enemies
But on this day Kal would do the first of three thing he has yet to do..Beg
and with that he called out to the God of Evil and Pain
"Mighty Darkseid, I have served you faithfully all these years, Please grant me the strength to continue to serve in your name, Darkseid Is!!!"
Hearing his words Darkseid spoke to kal
"What you ask comes with a price, to ask to become a true Son of Apokolips will cost tolls you may not wish to pay"
"I will do anything, I will not be defeated today, in your name grant me the power!"
With that, Kal was transformed into a harbinger of death and doom to be the herald of Darkseid's will and might
Kal felt power he never knew exsisted and he quickly turned on Zod and his forces
But in his bloodlust Kal did not see that the once great metropolis of Kyrpton was being destroyed
with every blow Kal landed it was as if he himself was creating the demise of his homeland.
Every citizen's soul was captured by Darkseid, building crumbeld and destroyed, all was wiped away.
Kal looked on in disgust and finally the guilt of what he caused set in.
"The price has been fulfilled mortal, but for your weakness you must bear the burden of your shame"
With that the souls of the lost kryptonians swirled around Kal
painfully fusing themselves to his skin, burning into his very being
Kal performed the second of three acts not known to him , he cried out in pain
And when the Maelstorm of agony was finished
Kal was reborn, where once a bronzed skin young man stood, only a ghostly white skinned Ghost of Krypton remained
Kal looked to his hands to see 2 large glowing blue blades were fused to his skin
rise Ghost of Krypton Darkseid commanded
rise my God of War
And Kal felt the third and last emotion he has never experienced before this day
Kal cried...
say something else perhaps. if nothing else EGOD beat me to the punch and I didn't notice it until I had posted it ( sweet work by the way...as always!
And I would make the blades green as they would be made from Fragments of the lost city of Krypton and it would make more sense then the blue I went with
So I am thinking we may revisit this character one day...Kal-tos vs Lobo anyone?
