Drawing Superheroes (2 of 3)

[@Rcinch1]

John Buscema.....The Master of Superhero and Human Anatomy. Nobody draws Captain America or Silver Surfer better than John Buscema. R.I.P. John Buscema......You were one of the best!

[@RobertMarzullo]

Love the way he starts out drawing Captain America with his hand at the back of the pencil for the loose sketch then tightens up on the pencil for the detail work. Awesome technique!

[@jsharp1701]

The face and legs are a dead giveaway on a Buscema hero. I can't see his stuff without thinking of "How to Draw Comics the marvel Way." That was my comic art guidebook when I was young. He was a legend. Never seen Bill's process before, but it's what you'd imagine: Impressionistic, bouncing around from spot to spot. A dash of this, a splash of that. 100 percent unique. These videos are absolutely priceless. Love all three of them.

[@atrixma]

john was a master artist, simply put. he drew iron fist quite beautifully as i recall. legendary artists. we miss you. RIP!!!

[@artisfu9]

BIG JOHN BUSCEMA...one of the true LEGENDS of MARVEL!!!

[@officialmoderator1]

Buscema is an out-and-out genius. Talent + knowledge + practice = skill.

[@DyrtyestofGypsys]

All of these are amazing, but as a fan of abstract art, I really like Bill Sienkiewicz's approach and vision. Simple, yet, complex...totally controlled chaos. Nice!

[@steelbat54]

John Buscema... one of my all time favorite artists.. R.I.P.

[@Artisan1979]

John is and always will be my first mentor in comic book art. Rip buddy. And I love the brush work on Elektra's hair, Sienkiwicz. Never would've thought of that trick and it's so simple. And using the whiteout to highlight the hair and other features, brilliant!

[@Thanir]

One of my favorite artists. I loved his Avengers run, his art helped make The Avengers my all time favorite comic book. I did not know he had passed away. His talent will be missed.

[@MicahandModesta]

I love watching all their unique styles.. How Bill likes less lines on the page faster, but Joe goes with a linier sketch style *oooh!* this is just dreamy :D

[@brandonc.9244]

Ahh, Black India Ink with an ink brush. Go John!

[@loringbush3319]

Comics aren't the same anymore without John Busema! I have thousands of comics that he drew. I'm a die hard fan of his amazing artwork.

[@Rcinch1]

John Buscema.....MASTER OF COMIC BOOK HERO ANATOMY! He is still the master.....even though he is gone. R.I.P. John Buscema. You are sorely missed!

[@TwasBrilag]

Two masters! I got How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way when I was about ten so I basically learned to draw comics from John Buscema, and I love Bill Sienciewicz. He always blows me away with his creativity.

[@thedrknghtno1]

R.I.P. John...Your art on Avengers and Conan were the best...and your book "How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way" is still my best resource...to the best!

[@SuperGamer87]

I enjoy watching you draw. Sometimes just watching someone draw is what I need.

[@sirmousalot11]

Dood i love john buscema's art, i especially like his inking style

[@bigwyllpower]

Magic, absolutey magic.............love the way his hand glides across the page as he effortlessly applys his inks! BRAVO!

[@JojoChampion]

Astounding! The man who got me into Marvel in the first place, along with his brother Sal. Fantastic artist - the best of them all.

[@ConstantineDreadPirate2936]

This is just perfect, I could sit and watch this for hours.

[@kevindouglas6120]

That's how I prefer Captain America. When I grew up that's the only way you'd find him. Thank you for doing this picture.

[@JLOFlix]

Watching the MASTER at work is an absolute DELIGHT!! THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this!!

[@venomtang]

its so relaxing watching other artists draw

[@LegalSynergy]

Poor 'ole John was wheezing terribly during this. Heavy labored breathing. Sounds like he had emphysema. No matter. I'll always consider him the GREATEST Marvel comic book artist of all time.

[@Rcinch1]

John Buscema truly was the master of comic book anatomy! If only he was still alive to enjoy his success. R.I.P. John Buscema, say hi to Michael Turner while your up there.

[@lassolegenda]

Sienkiewicz's Elektra may be my least favorite of this bunch but his way of working is definitely an interesting one. 90% percent of the time his style is very loose, then all of a sudden he seems to be very cautious as to what to do. In addition, it took me probably dozen times to watch this video before I noticed he was sitting on the floor which in itself gives this a somewhat cozy "off-duty" feel. I like it.

[@SuperPoser573]

That's how u sketch, hold the pencil as if it was a brush, then U are not just using your wrist for movement of the pencil, but your whole arm and shoulder, plus U can cover more ground that way....A true master!

[@blueworldcomics7908]

It has now been a decade and some change since I first watched this video and I still don't know anything about the guy that drew Elektra and I still find his drawing style mesmerisingly strange. He just places random dots and lines here and there. Nothing looks deliberate. Nothing looks like he planned it ahead of time. It both drives me crazy and fascinates me.

[@jacksonbrickmedia939]

His name is Bill Sinkezwich (Don’t know how to spell his last name!) . If you want to know more about him, he drew on New Mutants for a while.

[@Tchalla77]

John Romita Sr and John Buscema RIP (along with Neal Adams and 'the 'King' Jack Kirby) were my heroes back in the 70s; great to see these two masters of their chosen profession at work.

[@landonlee5536]

dude these are amazing pieces.

[@zenbyo]

He makes it look so easy. He drew what is still my favorite Spider Man comic "Endings" which was the prelude to Secret Wars. R.I.P

[@yanliechocki]

sienkiewicz is so awesome. He´s like: "fuck this shit, I´m just gonna scratch a few lines here and see how it goes" The result is a masterpiece.

[@yanliechocki]

Oh, e Romita Senior is great too. Think in Spider-Man is think in this guy.

[@lassolegenda]

I could listen to that sound when going to bed. And have the best dreams ever.

[@Holygiant]

wow john buscemas brush inking is impecable!

[@AtulaSiriwardane]

My Favorite of John's art is also his favorite...Conan the Barbarian.. There has never been a Comic Artist who excels in every aspect of Comics other than Writing, Lettering and Editing.. (He plotted too.)

[@armandoverdugo]

Jesus, what a gifted artist is style is unique

[@luvdomus]

Wow. John Buscema is amazing.

[@gunnerzjecht]

i think both are very well done to the viewers who think the second one is bullshiet, well think of it this way: both of them have different style of drawings. the second one actually amazes me more because i never seen sumthing like that and i would have never thought of drawing/inking like that, which is really cool

[@jmedia1102]

Wow, Big John B. in action. Priceless! Sad he didn't ink more of his own pencils...

[@gil_7038]

Is just so pleasing to see his drawings. Idk why.

[@dapencilshinobi]

I still love they way all this sounds

[@jmedia1102]

Amazing artist, that Bill S. Loved his Moon Knight! My favorite his drawing of the Werewolf by Night '82.

[@joeofmacabre07]

FLAWLESS!!!

[@NachtSchreck13]

Bill Sienkiewicz was my idol growing up in the mid-to-late 80's and early 90's. My favorite comic book artist ever, along with Jack Kirby.

[@WrathschildFink]

Wow. Go Bill Go! I like the 'messiness', it gives it energy.

[@carmelorodriguezlemes2864]

Que maravilla de artista John Bucema un grande del comic.

[@RetroRockGamer]

Watching Sienkiewicz draw freestyle is like watching Mozart conduct.

[@MsHollyweirdTV]

it's interesting to see all their different styles

[@Sarumouse]

Sienkiewicz is fearless. Wow.

[@wachaneart]

A true master! For real!

[@marcuscoffey7096]

I was just staring at his awesome sideburns.... they are frikin greyyy :DDD

[@loringbush1455]

Huge fan of him and his brother Sal's art work on the Avengers and the Septacular Spider-Man! Nobody draws like that anymore!

[@RabbitNouns]

Bill got some really awesome skills....

[@PhilipinoPhil]

That captain america drawing ooooooh yeeeeeeh!!!

[@BigshotSpike]

They make it look so easy.

[@CJ_7519]

When it came to drawing the Hulk, "Big" John Buscema was the one who made the Hulk look like the monster he is until John Byrne came along. "Big" John, R.I.P.!

[@soulmachine6752]

is this something you can learn? or is it something you are just born with...what a vision. this is awesome!

[@skyjuiceification]

no one is born drawing. let alone drawing comics. it is a skill and craft that one has to work at and cultivate. i guess that seems like magic to kids these days. but yeah, he had to spend time to get good.

[@Moodboard39]

​@@skyjuiceification more if u creative to draw your own character . Not everyone has , if true everyone be doing it...everyone be a artist , u gotta have it in you

[@charlie91638]

john buscema was the greatest ever RIP john..if there ever is a hall of fame for comic artist he needs to be in it...how to draw comics the marvel way by john buscema and stan lee beast ever i'll never forget that.

[@Moodboard39]

Stan didn't drew lol

[@elcaminante500]

ES RELAJANTE VER A LOS MAESTROS DEL COMIC TRABAJAR more videos Batmitey, we want see more¡¡ i lke it so much

[@eddiechinglives]

Very cool seeing Bill

[@marsiozo]

sal buscema is a comic book drawer... but bill s. is a true artist... love both of their works very much

[@carmelorodriguezlemes2864]

Me gusta su estilo de dibujar y su técnica de dibujar y el entintado ,que le da al Capitan América.

[@callac]

Amazing, Rob Liefeld should learn how to draw foots with these guys... and hands, and proportion...

[@JoeBrenn]

Wow, it's amazing how easily they seem to do this - heck, I have trouble drawing a straight line...

[@bingefeller]

I really wish Bill Sienkiewicz would bring out an instructional DVD.

[@vincev2926]

The second guy? Bill Seienkiewicz. And that's called pure mastery and genius!

[@trooperjoe73]

Go to wiki and look up: pencilers or comic pencilers. You can also search artist by names and you will get the type of pencils they use, etc.

[@thechallenger9000]

You have a great camera. Most drawing videos i see never pick up the pencil markings. Good drawing too.

[@LonerGR]

I can't see which brush is it,but most professionals use the Winsor-Newton series 7 finest sable.You may want to try it.Personally, I highly recommend it.

[@tonymontano6898]

What The Super....Heroes! Very good stuff....

[@sirmousalot11]

@schakalakadingdong i think its actually a brush they just cut the parts where he dips, its probably a raphael #2 brush

[@Supersharky14]

Your the best! I like what you used to darken the lines on Captin America. I'm going to post a vid on my drawings soon

[@7CieGrim]

It looks like a Nr 2 or 3, perhaps a Kolinsky because it's sharper than any other brush.

[@hipnosapista]

Awesome man, thanx for uploading

[@MaxPaynefan1]

That is bad-ass! I wish I could draw like that!!

[@cristobalaguilera6627]

R.I.P John Buscema

[@outlawtupac]

I was lucky to add this very Buscema sketch to my original art collection 👍

[@hellboy1976]

I am not stating that the artists of yesterday aren't quality artists. They were indeed artists first and foremost and understood a lot of what Mr. Liefeld doesn't. I have great respect for Kirby, Buscema, etc. But to look at some of what is being done today, the art at times can be breathtaking and really showcases things that were simply not back in the day. Plus the panel work being done these days is dynamic, and simply awesome.

[@IJLook]

Panel work Kirby & Eisner were the gold standard ! then Steranko ,Gil Kane,Gene Colan, George Perez and the Buscema's all take them anytime.They were all great storytellers.

[@76sagi]

John Buscema is THEEE shit! his work kills me every time.

[@adverick0]

both. its a marker with the point-marker soft like a pencil (almost but not soo soft) but the ink is inside like a marker.. mean while, marker and inking, .. is markinking :P

[@LaquanS]

The Elektra drawing blew me away.

[@Eliotantillo]

John sei un grande artista! Un giorno spero che il Tantillo diventi come te! E. Tanthill SdF PA

[@loringbush3319]

How to draw comics the Marvel way is still the best way to learn. Written bye Stan Lee and John Busema!

[@ahappyshow]

Fantastic stuff! -- Matt

[@stuffthings9618]

8:36 HOLY SHIT. It looked like he was just scribbling garbage at first. Was not expecting that.

[@Thollis1987]

John FUCKING Buscema! A wonderful talented comic book artist!😉

[@SUPERTROYANO666]

impresionante, disculpe, cual es la tinta que utiliza para darle las sombras "Shadows" gracias.

[@SlasherFlick]

it's most likely a sable brush - all of the old school comic artists swear by them, made from the hair of a sable horse from a specific seasonal coat. Pricey (125-150 US dollars) but if you take care of them, they're worth every penny.

[@najma50000]

art at it's highest level (my opinion)

[@62SG]

@vidguy Thats a load of bunk. Taking the time to draw a stick figure and build off it is NOT the lazy way, unless you get off on some weird machismo of drawing completely freehand. Drawing a stickfigure is the best way to plot out a figure because you do it solely through gestures and instinct rather than detail. Unless you've got years of GOOD drawings to your name you'll still need the stick figure to get something good.

[@09nob]

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss what a legend.

[@MultiJanche]

Just the sound of drawing.....more video like this!!!!!!

[@supersonico9364]

Awesome 👍

[@bpostman58]

yes....this is great,it was in a french documentary on superheroes...DVD,which they sold in england....it was called "spider-man and the superheroes"or something like that....i'll have to check the title...brian

[@TheNewWatcher]

..HOLY CRAP!..are these not the BEST VIDEOS EVER??

[@mrmigouze]

Tout simplement génial !!

[@danmcdaid]

Kudos to Bill Sienkiewicz here as well - I think I would have blacked in that one side of Elektra's face and immediately decided that the picture was lost and that I had failed. But he presses on and makes it work. Fearless.

[@blackschnitzel]

John Buscema is using a top secret breathing technique.

[@itszackempire]

it's crazy to think that on bill's drawing the right side of his box outline goes inwards and then back outwards, because he was moving his arm to avoid the brush on the page. thats just a weird improve freedom i could never have in my work.
