Jim Lee makes it look as easy as tying his shoes. I know he has put in years and years of work to get there. Someday I hope I reach his level.

[@BrokenGodEnt]

Me too and it sucks because rn I can't draw worth shit lol so it seems like I'll never get at his level or even remotely near it

[@tengkuadam1399]

That's what the video is for. He's teaching you his techniques so that you can draw like him too!

[@ucetjeezy812]

You can do anything you set your mind to.

[@Ravenholm337]

"It's a little rough" = still better than every drawing most people have ever attempted. :(

[@mute1050]

I learnt more in 1 Jim Lee video than a whole year in art class

[@DCBATMAN27]

love Jim Lees Batman

[@MakThaNife]

Jim Lee is my favorite new artist from the 90s. He seems like a cool guy, and definitely a great teacher of technique.

[@BrokenGodEnt]

+VZA [Visual Zen Advocate] is he not a great teacher? 😂

[@SwooshPlaysMC]

Jim's a god. A pure god. He is a super cool guy to be with and great teacher! Keep it up Jim. I wish you the best in life!

[@whipsawh]

Jim Lee, as always, amazing!

[@rayyrayy9451]

Even his Sketch is better than mine

[@Dezigningart]

Shane Schowalter lol. I'm sure if you practice you'll get past the "salami stage"

[@PaladinsFury]

The one thing I've noticed about Jim's work is that he still has a very old school mentality when it comes to his drawing shade into the pencils and inks. These days a good colorist can get great shading affects but Jim still grades like all the colors are flat

[@chadshahriyar1577]

I remember he stated Neal Adams was an influence. Probably has to do with that

[@basteagui]

i am learning how to add gradients to the inks. this style is not easy to do. modern comics just look like cartoonish funnies.

[@RonCaseTheOfficialVenomFreak]

This guy makes my art teacher look bad

[@atharvagokhale6738]

Every art teacher in school is disgusting. These people are the real ones!

[@borahcn]

situation in my country teachers:if you want to be a comic artist you should learn fine arts and realistic drawing (charcoal with normal lead), it will teach you structure and shading. me:but i dont need shading, and i can use clip studio to use figure reference, perspective teacher:shut up you think you can draw comics better than me?(a fine art teacher,who teachs only realistic drawings) me: but i need emotion, story telling, cool bodys. i can learn other thing by myself faster. teacher:fuck off you disrespectfull shit.

[@joeyfigueroa4748]

I love how fast he starts busting out the good one. Yeah I know, it’s takes years of work and determination. But it’s still mind blowing watching him whip that out like a piece of cake.

[@stvnbryn]

That was a lot of fun to draw along with! Thanks for helping me get through another slow 3rd shift grind!

[@kpbeard7]

I'm in awe at how much of an amazing artist Jim Lee is, I'd give an arm and a leg just for one of his drawings like this.

[@arjunbhat4912]

Thanks so much for posting these! I don't know about you guys, but I learn a lot by watching other people draw, so this channel is super helpful. Subscribed!

[@Tousanx]

he is such a great teacher. they way he explains technique is very easy to understand.

[@JediaelFraser]

I envy Trevor.

[@AhummerD]

Yeah, so something like that would probably take me hours to draw, and would still look peasant like in the end. I have like one great Batman drawing, which took me hours to complete, and I had to use a picture (if anyone would care to look at it, it's on my G+ page). I do wish I could draw without having to look at a reference image, though. Anyways, thanks for posting the video!

[@huskytzu7709]

I just saw your drawing and it's not that bad for an amateur tbh. At first i used to draw like that and I've been practicing ever since. Now I'm to a level where i can actually show my work to people and they praise it. So i would say don't give up . if this is what you want then you can have it with loads of practice. Keep working on it. You'll get there is eventually.😊😊

[@AhummerD]

Shahariar Dipto Thank you! (Out of curiosity, which one drawing did you see?) Oh, I will definitely work on it. And thanks for the advice.

[@huskytzu7709]

Dia Byz i saw the Batman one.and anytime bro. Don't let anyone discourage you not even yourself.

[@AhummerD]

Shahariar Dipto I have two batman drawings, one realistic Dark Knight and the other comic book style. I won't. Thank you very much!! :)

[@huskytzu7709]

Dia Byz the comic book one. The realistic one was actually pretty good.

[@xiang5814]

This is what he considers ROUGH.

[@navonmyhand7999]

BRUH.

[@navadadavies2218]

Xiang jj

[@AtelierZraco]

That's is interesting how he explains the drawing person with materials. I often see videos that they explain something with a ball. I wanna the Batman sketch XD It looks so dynamic.

[@DanMorelle]

Very cool. Love Jim Lee's art.

[@ChaosMonkey2626]

Thanks for the upload. To anyone who watches this, I would recommend watching it on 2x speed, you can still make out what Jim is saying and the general idea of the sketch while also saving a bit of time :)

[@centsamilia]

theres that sausage, theres that pie

[@KernelComics]

Always the best Jim!

[@misterbungle526]

Jim changed Batman forever! The character that is, not the movie. :P

[@melissawei-enhecker3853]

jim lee is the best hands down

[@legobatmanguy6439]

Title Correction: Jim lee roasting batman for 22 minutes straight.

[@petrucci15]

His scribbles look better then my finished pieces

[@biker944]

This never took off. They even spent money creation a motion book and everything... SadJack kirbys what?..couldn't make out what he said?Should I ever get the privilege to watch Mr. Lee do a live demonstration, I will make it my mission to patrol the audience with a stick; dispersing swift justice to those fools who unnecessarily shout out while he's speaking. "It's a little rough" = still better than every drawing most people have ever attempted. :(

[@vf1rj371]

Trevor, you're so lucky!

[@mediaglitch]

This is so amazing.

[@ginoserrano6408]

Excelente!

[@nicholashughes4342]

Cool to watch vids from the past, be blessed,all in Jesus shalom

[@adrianyepez8700]

Please draw the original 1939 Batman! You would kill it!

[@roman2011]

Dope

[@wallywest2038]

Lol I wanted to see Jim draw Ghost Rider but I guess there isnt any vids of it but this will do lol.

[@marioxsalez]

amazing

[@BullShark1579]

Jim. Can u draw Iron man?? Not like u can't but just asking if u would make a video??

[@PerryPencil]

Nice batman. I have one of batman flying and batman's face

[@kahwndry2012]

Ive been drawing since about 6 its a hobby of mine so i followed along drawing with a couple of pause mine came out off but good to an untrained eye why is it you say to use the shapes i always free formed with better results on my part you didnt explain and i was wondering why

[@roman2011]

I was drawing along good up to the sausage and pie.

[@gregchan7976]

Was he using a pen or pencil? (The green thing)

[@standepain]

Want to throw Jim Lee for a loop? Ask him to draw someone's back! The guy can draw basically anything but go through any issue and count how many time you see the back without a cape. lol He's gotta have a few flaws!

[@BrokenGodEnt]

+Dr. Dhoom I believe the person is referring to another video (I don't remember which) where a person asks his biggest weakness and Jim says "the backside" and he draws a backside and then he says "and that's why we have capes"

[@standepain]

+Dr. Dhoom Nope! I've been a fan of his, collected and studied every issue up until the mid 2000's. Go back and look and you will see that if it's a pose from the back their is usually a cape covering the back. Once in a blue moon you will see a shot of the upper back but his anatomy is always off. It's had to see since he puts in so much detail unless you know anatomy you'll never see it. Again, that's is about his only real weakness. Lol joe Kubert pointed that out to me by the way and there aren't many better people at anatomy than him...maybe Neal Adams and Mobeius.

[@standepain]

+Dr. Dhoom Yes. He was one of my instructors at his school.

[@InklanUtterfield]

At 22:20 what did he write after Jim Lee? Was it ZOB? And what does it mean?

[@InklanUtterfield]

Thanks, I can't believe I didn't notice that.

[@FlashyNightmares]

2013 ._.

[@kgghost2430]

[@yahyadashti2879]

[@yahyadashti2879]

[@lilbizzness36]

[@Cracknutter22]

[@MrJeymz]

why jim ever draw this camera angle

[@thelittlepasty8360]

It really irks me when you record in portrait

[@thelittlepasty8360]

Wait nvm I get it

[@rodney73991]

fear the bat egg.

[@jowloh]

I have this gift where I pick up a new technique of sketching just by watching someone... Then after some practice I tend to draw exactly like the artist! I'll be posting a time lapse of me drawing soon enough when I get a good camera.

[@jowloh]

***** Thanks :)

[@justalad8571]

Woah

[@creedolala6918]

[Checks his youtube uploads 3 years later] ... sigh, OP never delivers

[@BATTttab]

[@HS-eq3gk]

[@samzheng5803]

[@samzheng5803]

oh okay. :). i still like the art!

[@Y0uKnowMyName]

Hey, We came here to watch you draw Batman not Joes Java Hut.

[@iEhmanuel]

sideways

[@aaron2709]

Love Jim Lee but he always draws 2 sets of ears on Batman. It doesn't make sense. The human ears are a big, black hole on the side of the head, always. Wish he'd stop doing that.

[@markbrickel1930]

The tutorial was band was to hard to follow
