I can get everything in the right place and focus on the fun part-making the image mine and tweaking/refining it. Thanks for the kind words! When I'm doing larger portraits, I use a different method, of printing the person out and putting it under a plastic grid. I draw the grid lines on the larger piece of paper that I'm working on, and start from there. Helps me get very accurate proportions. But yes, using a light box would be much easier than this. On smaller portraits like the Jim Lee, I just do it by freehand instead of using that time consuming method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can lightbox a portrait in about 60 seconds. Of course any artist knows merely tracing is just a minor part of drawing. Any non artist who doubts this, just try to lightbox a face then complete the drawing and see how it turns out. Canadiancomics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andahaion Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 I like the subtlety of pencils. I've actually come around when it comes to original comic art and enjoy looking at published pages on two boards. I like seeing the pencil work the more I get into the hobby of OA.
