  1. Do you light box these or do freehand? Because they look identical to the originals. Good work regardless! Freehand, I do take a photo copy of the original and divide it into sections and then do the same on my art board to act as a rough guide for placement and such.
  2. Thanks again Oakman, the Steranko Hulk is my favorite, I think it came out best. That's my all-time favorite Hulk cover.
  3. Here are some attempts at cover recreations that I did 2-3 years, pencilled then inked. I posted them once upon a time, but not in this thread: A kirby Doom: [/img] Steranko Hulk: [/img] FF 112: [/img]
  4. I'd agree with this. I think I read somewhere that Frazetta spent time as a young just copying from anatomy books until it became automatic. He might have used Bridgman, a classic. Andrew Loomis is another classic. Loomis has been long out of print but is coming back into print. This link: http://saveloomis.org/ has some downloadable public domain art books, there is some good stuff in there if you don't want to splurge on some new books.
  5. Thanks Oak, very kind of you, your work is very impressive.
  6. I tend to be a copier, I see a pose, image or something in a comic I like so I copy it. I was reading an old B&W Marvel mag this morning and saw an image I liked in an ad for Crazy or Cracked, I forget which, but I liked it so I drew this in the morning: [/img] I liked the splash from the latest Batgirl, started it last week and finished up this afternoon: [/img] I discovered Aphrodite IX by David Finch in a TPB recently: [/img]
  7. Haven't unpacked them yet, but I just know they're good. They always are. Always fun to buy stuff from Dave.
  8. Got a nice set of Next Men books from John. Nice price, quickly shipped, safely packaged. Good deal all around. (thumbs u (thumbs u
  9. Received a few more masterworks, a pair of Inhumans volumes, and once again a pleasant transaction, well packed and quickly shipped.
  10. Bought a few books from the VCC. They arrived safe and sound! Sky donated the proceeds to holiday goodies for the troops! Quite a Gal! Always a pleasure to deal with.
  11. I bought some Thor masterworks and a Spidey omnibus, arrived quickly and safely. A pleasure to do business with.
  12. Low grade but I'm happy to own the pair: [/img] [/img]
