Whats crazy is he makes some of the most difficult drawing techniques look like its nothing. Perspective, dynamic poses and that webbing. Todd is such an OG
@prismstar4387 ай бұрын
From watching Matt's video documentary on McFarlane, he practiced A LOT in art, even before he got a job in Marvel/DC, and even when he got in, he still took those chances to keep improving his art.

Jim Lee has a vid that's helpful for dynamic poses too. The key concept is to shift and turn the pelvis away from the torso
@fluffycarrot422 жыл бұрын
@@FAYMprod I remember that video, it was a turning point in my early drawings. So far back I had very little knowledge of figure or anatomy. Just trying to get a pose to not look stiff. It was revolutionary at the time, still struggle with dynamic poses though. Perspective is so hard to learn. Hoping to get some good progress this year, but everything is so slow...

Making twists and turns to d body adds to d dynamics.. that sounds very interesting. To me and all budding artists, it's an invaluable lesson on d art of foreshortening and perspectives which is what gives life or animation to a static body drawn on a flat surface. This is what gives d visuals it's dramatic effects and comic artist have been employing this technique over generations.. making fans coming back for more and more.

Looking forward to more of such lessons from you Todd! It's never boring to see you draw multiple variations of super heroes twisting and turning their bodies esp spidey moving from building to building wth d aid of his web or while engaging in combat wth his enemies. Wth d mastery of foreshortening techniques and perspectives which makes d figures come to life, we fans will never have a dull day just watching d figures perform their gymnastic and acrobatic acts virtually jumping out from d printed page! Your fertile imagination and that of Stan's too help fertilise our imagination as well. Your creative innovation to spideys web of shooting it towards d camera gives an added dimension to d dynamics of comic book art! Thanks Todd, kindly churn out more of such exciting and lively artwork which both entertains and teaches your fans.

Any shortcuts you may utilize often, or hot keys your may have set? Brush preference? Drawing program you use? Blah blah blah. I know your busy and have spawn coming out, but I’m a huge fan and am finally getting back into drawing to share with my son who is 5 and now loves comics. 🙏🏼🙏🏼 have a great day. Thanks for these.
