Inspiring Artists Worth Studying: Bruce Timm

[@adamchiet7970]

As a fellow artist and a Timm fan, I wanted to thank you for your video and especially your time in making it! :)

[@ThomasByrnes-o8k]

Great breakdown on the work of Bruce Timm. I've been a fan for a long time and what caught my eye in the preview column was the Batman sketch at 11:40, I own the original. So great to see it used in your video.

Thanks for making the quarantine easier to manage!

[@LuisEscobar]

Ha ha ha! Happy to help!

[@cyberswiper6317]

I am inspired by Bruce timms artstyle I’ve even come up with my own cartoonish artstyle (drawing women and men) I love how Bruce timm draws women particularly. Good video 👍

[@LuisEscobar]

That is awesome!

[@jamestrickingtonIII]

These videos are invaluable, Luis. I appreciate you taking the time to make them.

[@LuisEscobar]

Glad you like them! Honestly, these videos are a lot of fun for me to do.

[@steampunkster2023]

Im more intrigued how Bruce colors his works with pencils. Its so clean!

[@LuisEscobar]

He tends to use mostly Prismacolor Markers and supplements with color pencils when necessary.

Thank you so much for this video. I found my way to your channel across your drawing website. So much great stuff to learn about!

[@LuisEscobar]

Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad you like the content.

This is so weird I’ve been doing a lot of Simpsons characters I got super into it then some how I recently gotten into drawing Bruce Timms stuff! 2 of my favorite worlds into one thank you 🙏

[@LuisEscobar]

Ha ha ha, I'm glad I was able to marry those two worlds for you. My buddy Tommy Tejeda, who's a character layout artist, character designer and assistant director on The Simpsons, took some years away from the show to work with Bruce Timm on Superman Adventures, Justice League, JL Unlimited, and Batman Beyond. So there's another Simpsons/Bruce Timm connection.

@@LuisEscobar that blows my mind even further! Thank you for all your awesome work please keep up these videos. They help me look at characters in different way that helps me understand the shapes

[@LuisEscobar]

@@devinrodriguez3530 You're welcome. And thank you for taking the time to watch these videos. I appreciate it.

[@mixabyss7744]

Not even done yet and this video is already SO informative. Thank you for making this. I’ve never heard of C curves and S curves , amazing that Bruce built his whole style around this concept

[@JBalderas1990]

Thank you for this! I'm trying to clean up my bruce timm style drawings and I just completely got off course by trying to be too detailed on the anatomy. It's so simple but I tend to overthink it! You reminded me about the importance of simple curves and straight lines method and now I'm back on track and I havent even seen the whole video yet! Thank you again!

[@LuisEscobar]

I'm glad to hear it. It's always good to keep in mind this quote from Leonardo da Vinci, “Simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication.”

[@gregfoster3757]

Bruce is basically the one who taught me how to draw that and copying the simpsons

[@dosy2310]

this video is an amazing help, thank you!

A true master, thanks for the share

Underrated KZbin channel! Awesome Job Sir!

[@LuisEscobar]

Much appreciated!

[@elite2sick225]

U and Timm are definitely underrated artist.

[@LuisEscobar]

I wouldn't put myself on the same level as Bruce Timm but thank you.

[@MrEdWeirdoShow]

Timm is terrific, but my animation fave was always the late great Darwyn Cooke.

[@fightflicks4823]

this content is pure gold! thank you for making this and im hoping i can see more videos like this.

[@LuisEscobar]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@SAsaiyajin]

Bruce Timm and Akira Toriyama are very good in drawing women as equalivants to how they draw men.

[@loringbush3319]

Still the best Batman animated series there ever was.

[@Wpit2]

Great video, subbed!

Gracias. Muy bueno.

what anatomical proportion is used to draw women in the style of Bruce Timm

[@LuisEscobar]

Thanks for the question. Here's the answer, hopefully you can understand it: The anatomical proportion used to draw women in this style is, it's own. In animation, every style has it's own proportions unique to it's style. The job of the artist is to apply their favorite proportion measuring method, modify it and apply it to the style. And even then, the proportions aren't universal and vary from character to character. This is why anatomical proportion formulas should never be viewed as dogmatic absolutes but rather tools that may help get you the results you want. And if they don't, you set them aside and use a different set of proportional tools that do. I recorded a video where I deconstruct a style in order to be able to draw a character. This MIGHT be helpful in illustrating what I mean: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWnKhnqOeJd4nqc I hope this answers your question.
