SciFi and Fantasy Art hero 3: Shamrock by Zachariah Campbell

Another one of those superheroes I made up back when I was a kid, redrawn recently.

I have no idea why this guy has a shamrock on him. I mean, he's Irish, but there's no connection with his powers or anything. I think back when I created him he was supposed to fight IRA terrorism or something, but really, he's just a superhero. :)

His deal is pretty straight forward. He's got superhuman strength and endurance, and wears a jet pack, helmet, and energy blast gauntlets. So original... :)

29 Jun 2003	Stanton F. Fink	Loading... So, there was this other Shamrock... In the RPG "Champions," there was this one super-powered Irish terrorist/mercenary called Shamrock. If I recall correctly, he had similiar powers, except the jetpack. Zachariah Campbell replies: "Gah. Really? I am truly ignorant of this, though I was aware of a female Shamrock in Marvel comics, who had some kind of luck-altering powers.Shamrock's original inspiration was actually some one-issue villain from the early 80's, short-lived FALCON comic... think he was called Nemesis. I thought he looked cool, so I cribbed the boots, helmet, blasters and backpack from him a bit... though of course Shamrock's design changed a lot since then. "

8 Mar 2004	Nerdvana	Loading... Great Pic Also, thought, don't forget that Marvel had a character named Shamrock, she was Irish, had luck powers and first appeared in "Contest of Champions" and then later in the "Guardians of the Galaxy" series. Zachariah Campbell replies: "Actually, I mentioned that already a couple of comments above yours. However, other than his Irish origin, he really has nothing in common with her, so I'm not worried. If there can be 4 different Captain Marvels, then I'm sure there can be 2 Shamrocks. "
9 Mar 2004	Nerdvana	Loading... Ooops, I was reading the comments at work and rushed it, sorry.
25 Jan 2005	Darren	Loading... This is really cool! Great coloring job, great anatomy, but what's with the hands? lazy... Zachariah Campbell replies: "Yeah... the hands are kind of minimal, even compared to the rest of the picture. Meh. Otherwise, I'm glad you like it. I think the computer colouring really helps the muscle tone in this one."
