I was a bit sad to miss last-week topic for Illustration Friday (Fearless) but strangely, this week topic (Equipment) is also a fit for my original idea. I have been juggling with the idea of doing a super-hero-girl for a while, mostly because I just could not answer when my boy asked me “What is your favorite super hero-woman?”…. humm…. Bionic Woman? Wonder Woman? Geeee… so much for actual female hero’s… well there is Alice in Resident Evil but he is not allowed to watch that movie. So I had no answer for him.I tried to imagine a more modern-super-hero-girl . And I love martial art, and mostly the Saï !! I think she is ready to fight. Girls need super hero’s too!!!

J’étais un peu triste de manquer le dernier sujet d’ Illustration Friday de la semaine dernière; Fearless (sans peur), mais étrangement, l’idée que j’avais en tête fonctionne assez bien avec le sujet de cette semaine: Equipment (Equipement). Je jongle avec l’idée de faire un genre de super héro féminin depuis que mon garcon a demandé “C’est qui ton super héro fille préféré, maman?” Ayoye… heu… ok… est-ce que ca compte, la Femme Bionique? Wonder Woman? Outch… ca fait un bout… y a bien Alice dans Resident Evil mais il l’a jamais vu. J’ai donc imaginé une fille super héro. J’aime beaucoup les arts martiaux et surtout le Saï !!! Voici donc ma super-héro des temps modernes.

Looks great! You managed to cover both topics perfectly
she looks like she could take on the world! awesome work – thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment. i really appreciate it!
I love your girl. As for super hero women I think my favourite would be Electra or perhaps River from Serenity! I just love the collage feel of your work, beautiful.
I remember these conversations with my son, I always had to be the pink power ranger! Now he’s old enough to know Uma Thurman in Kill Bill. Your super hero is ace, she looks cool and hard!
Thank you for your nice comments!! And thank you for mentioning me some more recent hero-girls I had forgotten about… Electra, and Uma Thurman in Kill Bill! — Shelby you made me laugh… had to be the pink power ranger.. hehehe that’s funny.
I had this same conversation with some friends the other day. Glad to know there ARE more choices out there for us! Nice work too…great movement!
brilliant job.
Cool style, got both topics covered well.
beautiful! nice merge, she has made it to my list of super heroes.
I love your style. And I love this one particularly. I also love how you translate everything into two languages!
