THE BELOW PLACE
"Let us discuss the matter like civilized humans beings. And by 'discuss' I mean, of course, I talk and you listen."
- Samuel Sterns
"We approach life not just to be able to think about it and talk about it and discover its truths, but also to enjoy it. And so a healthy life really isn't about abstinence or asceticism, it's about enjoying your time on this earth."
- Tim Blake Nelson

This is my personal corner, where I share about my struggles as an artist, as a disabled person who try to recover but also where I drop very random Sam Sterns analyzis in between two arts!

Doodle Post - let's talk erotism and love
Samuel Sterns & Bruce Banner - Marvel Studio I was hesitant to post this one because I wondered if I should turn it into a clean art, or at least a better sketch (this one is full of mistakes 'cause it's the step where I place things, they're not properly proportionate and shit). But I like it this way too (and I can't turn everything into a full art either). Everytime I draw a serious intimate and touching Samuce moment, let it be comics or MCU, it's always a sketch. I don't

Introducing Doodle Posts
I decided to add a new kind of "Art Post", the "Doodle Post". They'll be tagged as art posts because as lazy as it is it's still a drawing, but they'll be named doodle post. I like my doodles. They barely make any impression online because people would rather have a full art than something light and silly, I get that and it won't prevent me from making those for me and the three friends who enjoy it. But I also want them to have a bigger visibility here, because it's often th

Art Post - Crows symbolism
Phantom Manor Graveyard Jazz - Disneyland Paris MCU Samuel Sterns / The Leader It's Spooky Month, so have a ghoul-ish vampire! I can already tell it's gonna be one of my fav art of the year (and one of my fav overall). I really like the vibe I gave him. At first I corrected all the mistakes. The too long feet, the too bended thigh, the broken left wrist. But it made him looks way too boring, too "humans". So I started over and left these defaults. The "broken" wrist makes

Art Post - Let's draw their personality
Adrenalize - In This Moment Samuel Sterns / The Leader (Marvel comics) Samuel Sterns / The Leader (Marvel Cinematic Universe) Like I said with my previous art, I don't forget people who wanted a short jacket version because it's "sexier" and because I'm a nice lad I made it double (and even more sexier). Today is my Birthday and I enjoy sharing a sexy Sam art for this occasion each year. It was complicated to pull anything because I barely have time to sit on my computer and

Art Post - The importance of simplicity
Super Villain - Sileto & Silent Child Samuel Sterns / The Leader and his humanoids (Marvel) "Monster Demon Savage Heathen If I'm no hero Maybe I should be a Super Villain" After a huge complicated and stressful situation, I draw Sam to chill. I tend to keep it simple and only have fun with his outfit (it's as simple as "I like it") without overthinking compositions and stull like that. I don't think every single artwork should be a masterpiece, but I do think every single on

Let's Talk : MCU Sam redesign and comics accuracy
I wrote this post under another name on my old blog, that's why it will look familair. But I totally rewrote it, adding new stuff, making it more complet. So feel to re-read! I've been a fan of the Leader for so long I can't even remember when it started. But unfortunatly for me, while he was popular in the 90s, he became quite unknown and unpopular afterward, even if he's the main antagonist of one of the main Avengers. And yet, ever since Captain America Brave New World cam

Art Post - MCU Sam's body
MCU Samuel Sterns / The Leader We all knew it was only a matter of time before I started sexualizing MCU Sam but anyway. Couldn’t decide which version I like the most so have both, I like the kind of “firecamp” vibe of the first and the sketch one of the second. Also an excuse to show how I headcanon his body. I like to think he has "burning" scars and visible green veins on the right part of his body, as it is the most damaged. Like I said in another post, my headcanon is th

Art Post : Mister Blue
Mr Blue - The Fleetwoods MCU Samuel Sterns / The Leader I should have shared this one sooner because I did it a few weeks ago, but I wanted to keep him on my sleeve until I actually had the final result of his purpose. Most of you know it but I have a few Sam tattoos, I'm working on a full sleeve on my left leg in fact (under the knee 'cause I hate having tattoo I cannot show off or see lol). Even before Captain America Brave New World came out, I was planning to tattoo MCU

Art Post - To shed those tears
Broken Crown - Mumford and Sons Samuel Sterns / The Leader (Marvel Cinematic Universe) He got carried away by the song he was playing, don't judge him. I am OBSESS with that picture of Tim Blake Nelson playing guitar on the set of Captain America Brave New World. I was obsessed with it before it even comes out in fact. In comics (in the 90s during Peter David's run), Sam throw very casually that thanks to the connexion he accidentally created with Rick Jones he can play gui

Big Brain Time : It's the little things... (MCU Sam Sterns analyzis)
In my small Captain America Brave New World review I said I didn't want to talk about MCU Sam (Sterns) too much because I wanted to keep that for a whole post. You'll soon understand, through the length of this post, why I kept that for later There's a lot of problems with MCU Sam's writing. His screentime and writing were both very and painfully obviously reduced. But it's still here, if you pay a good attention you can see all the care they initially gave to this character.
