Tom Welling as Superman Manips

[Kaboom]

So Far This season he's proven to me he's worthy of both having the title SUPERMAN and wearing The Famous Red Cape & Blue Tights .

is it just me or did it suddenly get reeeeeeeeeeeeeaally cold in here?

No. It feels pretty cold in here to me too.

Brrrrrr......

lol, very funny boys & Girls. But in all seriousness This season so far has been a good start of the season for Clark both for Character development wise and moving forward towards becoming SUPERMAN.

Another "Tom as Superman" manip:

This is my favorite manip.

 

[Kaboom]

The only change I could make was the "shorter haircut". I wish I would know how to part his hair as Superman in the comics (to his right) and brighten up the suit colors.

i prefer thi s one

Break out the snow shovel and ice scrapers...

The hair doesn't bother me at all in this manip. In fact, I like the look. But the body is just... I dunno... not right. He kind of looks like he's standing with his arms out, like a Russian dancer (you guys know what I mean.) It's just ... weird.

Here's two shots of Welling with crossed arms...

The delts are emphasized when he puts his arms out...

Not a bad look, but not a natural crossed-arm stance either. Plus he's got big forearms to begin with, so I rather just see him stand naturally. No need to use any funky poses or camera angles to beef him up more than he already is...

^ the tom welling as superman manip looks awesome!!!

 

[superboy13]

TW's arms are longer than BR's, that's why it looks kinda funny. With his arms crossed the way he does on those pictures, it reminds me a lot of how CR used to cross his arms.

 

[AgentPat]

Hmm. Well, that may be true - Welling may indeed have longer arms. But in this manip...

...his arms are up and out - like the I Dream of Jeannie "blink" pose. (I'm not being sarcastic.) Notice the position of his left elbow (on right side of photo). The whole arm from shoulder to elbow is also foreshortened since it's pointing into the camera. Compare that with actual pictures of Welling's arms and elbow in the same stance...

Other than a birth defect LOL, there's really only two things that would cause the arm to be visually foreshortened like that. Either the pose is intentional (arms held up), or the chest is inflated (naturally or via padding), which would cause the arms to push up and out. Having seen the profiles of both actors, I kinda doubt it's the chest.

I think his arms look more natural in this manip...

Was that REALLY necessary?

I prefer his hair longer, anyways, manip update:

that's pretty much his hair cut in Legacy (s03e17) when Clark goes to New York to visit Dr. Swann. Remember?

 

[Bruce_Wayne29]

I think all that's missing to make it perfect is a curl.

 

[AgentPat]

It wasn't a slam. Trust me, you'll *know* when I'm being snarky. I don't hide it. In this particular situation, I was being very matter of fact. I gave examples of situations where his arms would appear foreshortened as seen in the photo. Don't read any more into it; there was NO insult intended to either actor in what I wrote.

No doubt, his hair was ultra short for that episode...

 

[The Caped Knight]

Agreed .

 

[heliorei]

Actually I prefer seeing Welling with his hair shorter becasue he looks more adult, perfect to show him as Superman.

BtW, can anyone make a manip of this picture by putting glasses, to show Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter?

Right, BR's head was more laid back than TW's in that picture.

the angle is just not right. if someone has a better pic than we can fix this.

Couldn't find one with that haido, I hate Welling's shaggy hair for Superman

nice manip of the body ...who made it? t:

[superboy13]

I don't know how to use photoshop but here's some pics of him with glasses.

 

[Serene]

Hey! I like that second one a LOT.

 

[avidreader]

I don't know how to use photoshop but here's some pics of him with glasses.

I think that is the BEST Clark Kent with glasses manip I've seen.

Is that one of your's Serene?

It is. I guess you missed it back when I first posted it. Thanks.

Actually, I cringe a little looking at it now. I need to revisit that one sometime methinks, it's in need of some tweaking.
