hulk! boom!

Hey man you have some good stuff going in here. Definitely work on the lower body seems to be the weakest part. Also I really liked the gesture drawings you did they seem more dynamic then all the more finished pieces. Try to make the figures less stiff, a problem I have been working on as well. Keep it up man!

Hey man I worked on your Hulk pic re sizing same part of his body in order to let you know my feedback.

Hope you don't mind

[crazyjedichicken]

wow! thanks caimano, i've been a lot more aware of it but still struggling to implement it! that re-sizing helps alot!

Thebreeze- thanks for taking the time to comment and for having a look! yeah i'm trying to work out the stiffness of my figures but it's hard! thanks for the tips and encouragement!

just some daredevil sketches, want to try more dynamic poses and who better!

Now these are very interesting sketches, they look like they're done with just one pass - being able to nail the gesture very quickly with clean confident lines is quite impressive. I do have point out though that you really should study a little bit of anatomy on the side, just to keep things rolling.

good sketches regardless.

thanks senji, i continue to stare at naked people with pencil in hand alot in an effort to learn more about the structure of the body but legs still confuse me! just need to draw em more! got into a bit of a sketch boom mood today and recently read some captain america and matsuda era wolverine so..here we go! in the order they where drawn!









as always any comments or crits are both welcome and appreciated!

Just got done looking through your thread, I enjoyed it very much. Awesome to see how you improved, I'm very intrigued by the Wolverines on pages 3-4? I think you should stick to that style then your most recent is my opinion.

[crazyjedichicken]

wow! having worked my way through a good few sketch blogs on here i know the work involved so thank you very much for taking the time to look through it! i'm still working things out with regards to my style, i think it will end up some where in between but i'm enjoying how freely things flow from my head to the page with this style! again thank you for taking the time and for posting up your thoughts!

[Caimano]

Good! Things are improving here! The sketches are more fluid and the style is starting to become more personal. Just continue to study anatomy just for understand how it work, but the path you are on is the right one for me...i like this syle a lot!

[crazyjedichicken]

as always thanks for the encouragement caimano! should have more too post tonight!

I've posted this link before and I'm sure some folks will get tired of seeing it, but it's SO helpful! :

That's Stan Lee and John Buscema talking about action poses. Big John was a master at them - How To Draw Comics The Marvel Way was actually his comic art course with Stan doing the writing as he has a certain gift for that sort of thing (who knew?).

You have a good start to your poses, but they need some tweaking to maximize the dynamics. I've posted other tips in some threads, but it really all comes back to that chapter (Action) in that very famous book. Your progress is good, but you'll gain a lot from giving that vid a look.
