"So let's move on to our next super hero. You can see here we have our inspiration for Ghost Rider we're going to be basing our drawing on for this with some additional that we'll add. so again, we're going to start with our core drawing which is basically going to consist of a head area here, putting our lines across kind of where you expect the eyes to be. You can also see where eventually where the mouth will be. And in this case we have a very very bulky fellow so we'll be bringing the shoulders out here and the hands up here kind of in a gauntlet, holding a gauntlet, while the other hand is down, way down here resting at his side. So it's very much kind of a bulky, a bulky piece. That does not mean that we can't already start kind of sketching out just the very basic details of how things are going to go. And the first area you're going to start with is again this head area. Now the other thing you can do outside of the main body, other details you can add is we're going to have like a big wreath of flame around here. Ghost Rider is a, is a scull flamed demon from hell. So you can always just kind of like start adding in where you expect some of the basic border and different things to be. Like in this case, flames shooting up around the side. So you can do this all the way back in what you call your core wire drawing here. And also keep in mind the scull face here will make the face look a little bit different than it normally would. But we're going to basically make sure that we have the essential core features of the body sketched out here before then adding in additional details in our next step."
