This thread has really digressed, hasn't it?

What were we talking about?

Someone more clever than myself needs to start a thread about the best sex euphamisms. That would be a nice distraction for a while.

That or Poser.


Nah, I never use that stuff. Especially stuff like Poser. Too stiff. And the DVD thing would take too long to capture just what I'm looking for.

Remember, the sketch ALWAYS comes first, the basic storytelling and composition. Everything else must serve that. If I used a DVD, then I'd have to alter my choice of camera angles to match what I can find on the DVD. That's why I just shoot my own ugly self. I couldn't act to save my life, but at least I can get down what I want.


I disagree. With Poser, I can get whatever camera I want. It's a bit daunting for folks who aren't familiar with 3D Modelling or animation, but it can produce some pretty neat stuff if you play with it enough. I use it mostly for doing pin-up art. Smile

Just my opinion, which is worth the paper it's printed on.

Love your avatar and sig, btw.

Horses are the worst thing!


NO! L love them! Next to humans is the only other animal I know how to draw comfortably.


That's the classically trained artist in you. I have yet to see another comic artist who has as a traditional approach to drawing as ypu and Michal Lark. i use you guys as examples to my students who only want to daw manga stuff... i tell them to, "learn the classical approach, then you can draw daredevil and batman."

Very Happy
