วีดีโอ

Thank you for the kind words! I think seeing the faults in my own art keeps keeps me going. That it'll be perfect next time feeling.. lol

@retrosuperheroart2202 so that never really goes away does it?

@ lol Guess not, even for a genius like Stanley Kubrick so it seemed.

@@retrosuperheroart2202 thanks man, that reassures me to keep at it. Someday perhaps I will be as good as you 🙏

Thank you for the ideas and for always watching! Noted the 75th birthday on Feb 18th ;-)

@@retrosuperheroart2202 You're welcome and thanks for reading my ideas for the next weekly stick figure challenge and thank you for remembering John Hughes's Birthday on February 18th he will be 75 years old this year i love all of his movies including The Breakfast Club Sixteen Candles and Pretty in Pink he's one of the most influential person for me as a creator i love all of his films and his writing style is very inspiring to me as a storyteller and his films are really enjoyable to a lot of people including me this is why i like his films and how they do storytelling right back in the 1980s i think his films are more inspiring and creative to me this is why i should make my own works because of them also are you going to do the Pretty in Pink Poster Poses for the next weekly stick figure challenge because i really like to see that happen from any artists for the next weekly challenge Retro because that poster is really awesome.

I think the easiest of these here in the video would be the Kirby and first Manga ones. The simpler the better. Some later artists like Jason Pearson sometimes did very basic geometric shapes, which makes it easier but still cool. Who's your go-to hair artist?

Thanks dude! Color !! yeahaw! lol Will do

My pleasure! Different styles but the same pose was always something I looked for in comics. I learned from every submission as well. See you soon for round 2!

@@retrosuperheroart2202I’d say for me it’s looks like Joe Quesada’s late 90s Daredevil run and I’m starting to like Marc Silvestri’s sketchy approach to his overall style

I love One Punch Man. I made a video where I analyze the style called "First Time reading ONE PUNCH MAN ! the famous MANGA" Hope you like it!

I've noticed the new setting where it dubs in any language. So useful (and funny to hear myself finally speak fluent French...) I'll have to do some research on how to apply it to the older videos. Stay tuned.

lol, welcome to the nerding out!

@ hell yea happy to be here

It was a part of the cover of Jupiter's Legacy 001 (2013)

é, eu não falo outras línguas tão bem.. (google translate.. lol)

Welcome! and enjoy the nerding out ;-)

Thank you!

@ No prob.

lol, thanks! Nothing wrong with drawing beauties ;-)

Of course! It’s our right… maybe our duty! 😄😊 Your YT channel is pure gold, duuuude 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Awesome, me too! Welcome to the fun!

Yup, layers helps with that. Love the fog as well of course.

Thanks dude! Did you catch the Twin Peaks homage I did in the Tony Scott video ;-) hehe. Gotta do some research when I can about the Far Side, I don't remember seeing it when I grew up. Our Christmas movie of choice here was Die Hard. Can't go wrong with that classic, and its what was playing on tv here. Somehow Better Off Dead never shows up. Wish it did.

@retrosuperheroart2202 Well Die Hard has been good film to watch around Christmas time alongside Home Alone and Christmas Vacation i think Better Off Dead is really a great film to watch around Christmas time because it had one Christmas scene in it so it's really a Christmas movie to me and it's one of the most bizarre film ever made from the 1980s and it's a real classic from that decade and it's one of those must watch films that had a cult following over the years and it's kind of like those cult classic that people remember and quote lines from it and it's one of those films that's really show the 1980s perfectly this alongside films like Valley Girl with Nicolas Cage and the underrated Johnathan Demme film Something Wild which was a perfect depiction of living in 1986 america and it's a definitely a 80s film you should check out for yourself it's fit in the same vein as David Lynch's Wild at Heart and Tony Scott's True Romance with a vibe of Martin Scorsese's After Hours with Griffin Dunne also do you seen clips of Better Off Dead on TH-cam lately it's one of the most out there films ever made from the 1980s it's kind of like a Mel Brooks film with a bit of National Lampoon style humor from that decade also please tell me you did see it also it's 2025 and the film is now 40 years old so how do you like it does a peak your interest and the i want my two dollars line of the film funny to you send me your thoughts of it to me and do you really like this film that i mention in the comments to you Retro since i recommend it to you since day one please send me your thoughts and also you are my favorite TH-camr on this site and also you are my kind of person Retro.

I checked it out. lol, looks funny. A rare thing, a skiing high school comedy. And it has the guy from Revenge of the Nerds! Can't go wrong there. John Cusack good a big start of his career. I wonder why he didn't keep the momentum up. Maybe his choice?

@@retrosuperheroart2202 Also it did have some animation segments and a stop motion segment featuring a hamburger singing Everybody Wants Some by Van Halen it's really right up your alley and it's kind of like a Zucker Brother film that wasn't made by the Zucker and it's really a time capsule of the 1980s and i think it got reference in one episode of South Park when they are go to Aspen and i think this film was came out in the same year as The Breakfast Club and both films share a same producer and i think this film is the greatest comedy ever made from the 1980s and thank you for enjoy Better Off Dead Retro this film is classic from the 1980s and I WANT MY TWO DOLLARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol, its all connected!

Oh wow, I love discovering this. Never heard of Michael Kaluta but you're right. That's totally that fantasy vibe that Arthur Adams was into. Thanks! OMG that cover, the eyes the mouth the nose the hair, spot on! lol

Woops ;-) no worries buddy! Hope you can join this week!

@@retrosuperheroart2202 just one question, the pose to the new challenge can be whatever we want or it needs to be the same?

@@LuisFelipe-r4o Its more fun if the pose is similar to the one I sent because then you can see how others solved the same issues, but if you want to change it go ahead. Anything goes.

Hey, more you know bud! That's why its fun!

Thank you for watching!

Thank you for the compliment! Its nice to hear you see a style in my coloring ;-) It's like how you never think you have an accent yourself but then you hear even the slightest of accents in others.. lol Always tricky to be objective about yourself right? Yes, I can tell from the backpack that you had to stop early because of the deadline. Please send it to me again when it's finished!

OOohh I love hearing that about Todd, now I have to track down those panels. Do you know which ones by any chance?

@ I can’t remember them , but it was more obvious once he started working in marvel , I remember the channel cartoonists Kayfabe had a few Todd videos and they showed some panels and I recognized it immediately sorry I’m not much help lol it’s been a while since I had done my research 😅

@@retrosuperheroart2202 oh yes also his Batman in those pages when you see his landscape those cities were from Kira

Thanks, I'll check Batman year 2!

Good idea, I also need to practice that. Yes, I will definitely talk about this soon.

@@retrosuperheroart2202 yeah you are right yuor lines are too thicc especialy when your style is so detail

lol, busted!

lol, no worries! Catch you next week!

Yes, I always see so much wrong the next day in my drawings. I don't think I have ever made something that I am 100% happy with. lol ! My trick is the left/right flip. That gives you a little of the "next day eyes" right now.

@@retrosuperheroart2202 Please can you explain the trick? Never heard about it..🤣

Oh, just looking at your drawing in reverse, like you see me do in this Batman pose as well. I'll make a video about it soon.

@@retrosuperheroart2202 Yes thats what I mean

Thanks! Sure send me the drawing. Check the link in the description for how to reach me.

@@retrosuperheroart2202 thanks a lot will have a look. Nice Weekend.

@@retrosuperheroart2202 I saw you have to download something.. This is not what I thought. I like to send just pictures out of the weekly contend. I try it with X. there are just 3 pictures...Instagram don´t work...Broken . Cannot send a message. When I try to type the field vanishes. Maybe try X if its ok for you. I have a whatsapp acount. Would be easear for me, to send you sometimes pictures there.

Oh, I'm not on other platforms besides instagram. You can send me a good old fashioned email. (find it in the 'about' part of my youtube profile)

@@retrosuperheroart2202 Ok will do. Thank a lot!

Oooh, that's a good retro one. Thank you! I put it one the list of ideas.

@@retrosuperheroart2202 Thank you!

Thankserino!

Thank you! Yes, there's a whole series waiting for you to enjoy!

Thanks, his style lends itself well to it. Especially his sharp and round lines are so specific.

Yeah, Paul Smith, so good. I wish he had drawn more in the 80s. I read somewhere (probably Wizard or a Marvel Age) that he was more into motorcycles than drawing.. nooooo!!! ..our loss

Thank you! Cool, looking forward to it!

Cool, I was digging through mine and my sons for a Porsche 911 but didn't have one anymore, micro machines are a bit too small though hehe

@ hey if you like the chibi look micro machines might do fine.

@@scribblingjoe lol chibi chevrolet !

I don't think even as a baby a cage could hold him.. lol

Yeah, those anime cars have a specific vibe, that Lupan III car is alive! I finally got to see Pee-Wee's big adventure when they showed it on tv a while back. I really wanted to like it because I heard so many things about it and the cameos but somehow I couldn't sit through it... sorry!!! lol The opening scene with him winning that race in his dream is great though. John Hughes movies like the Breakfast Club have a special place in my heart, so on my instagram page you can see I did multiple homage drawings to that iconic poster. I kind of want to see Some Kind of Wonderful again, I think I saw that just once about 30 years ago, and it's kind of a what-if Eric Stoltz didn't get fired from back to the Future. lol! You can always commission me if you have any super specific drawing requests like this (link in the description). Thank you for watching my videos!

Yes, good point. There's many entries each week now, so in depth critique is difficult. I wish doing this was my day job so I could go deeper, but unfortunately I can't right now. Back when I was in university we would beg the teacher for feedback. It was almost bragging rights to have the teacher pick you out to give corrections to. I'm just a dude who likes to draw, so not comparing myself to that teacher, but I think there's still merit in somebody going over a drawing and pointing stuff out.

Cool, looking forward to it!

Welcome! I hope you like the nerding out over old school comics.

Oooh I love those Pentel brush pens, what an invention, a continuously ink filled brush.

@@retrosuperheroart2202 Yes but you doing well with your classic tools, which I use too. Its another feeling to produce art on the classic style, paper, pens, colours than use digital tools. Ok its faster but, for me sometimes I had the feeling, the art lose the soul, because all comics look the same.But Iḿ old fashion and I look so many hours on computer screens, so I like to protect and rest my eyes and drawing on paper and canvas.

@@sharky9493 Yes, the process becomes part of it, not just the result. Zen drawing!

Yeah, this is one of the first videos, still learning about sound at this point...

No worries, it all adds up to good practice, week by week.

Yup, win some loose some like a boxer, but getting the reps in to get stronger each time.. euhm.. mixing metaphors.. ;-)

Thanks for watching!

Thankserino!

@retrosuperheroart2202 no Problemo

Oh yeah, good edit with the extra lighting!

Hehe.. I don’t keep up with the artists lives or interviews that much. Just read my old comics, and Sin City is some arty stuff.

Lol, maybe he’s years ahead of us again…

which links? (I think comments with links automatically get removed sometimes)

Thank you! Touch down!

hehehe
