Back in the late 80's and early 90's when I attended art school, I would just sit there for hours trying to copy Jim Lee's work. He was like a myth and legend. Now more then 25 years later we get to see the master at work creating works of artistic wonder. Gotta love youtube.
This man is a master. even when he makes mistakes he does not freak out he finds ways around them. I would never deserve to meet one with his talent or wisdom. keep drawing Jim Lee
Art is really a joy. Was having a down week and this came right on time. Haven't seen a Jim lee in a bit and I'm happy to see it. This batman is awesome. Unparalleled foreshortening...but its Jim :)
Sweet! I started watching this on Twitch but didn't get a chance to finish. Jim Lee has been one of my biggest influences over the years, watching him draw has taught me a lot and helped me with my own art recently.
Hey VZA, its Seth from Emerald City Comic Con. I really appreciate your channel and am learning lots from it. Thank you for continuing to upload great content!
@Batman good point. I'll just add in also, focusing on learning how to block in a picture by lightly drawing large simple shapes first, and then drawing small dark details on top of that, that is really the main thing to focus on and learn. It's kind of tricky at first, but if you just stay patient and keep practicing you will learn how to do it. Just keep having fun with it, because that's what keeps you going and not giving up on it.
I know it's old but to anybody who needs to hear it: use this video to learn, study it, study artists you admire, keep practicing, read books about subjects u wanna get better at, draw everyday. trust me if u really want it you'll get there! u gotta believe in yourself as corny as it sounds, put in the work and enjoy the process
Superb art Jim,as always! Jim can you please tell me if you have an issue with your sakura fineliners when their tip wont feed the ink that good after fast sketch like motions ? Thanks a lot!
Hi Panzer Patriot. I'm just a dude who edits these videos. You should join Jim's discord channel at discord.gg/jimlee and pose your question. Even if Jim doesn't respond there are plenty of fellow artists and art lovers who would be able to answer your question.
Any body know of anyone resources Jim Lee has referenced like a how to book for this? I would like to learn to draw like this but don't know where to start
Jim Lee ' s drawing Final Fantasy Squall or Terminator and Sarah Connor. Joker ' s using The King of Fighters XI ' s Oswald character body sprites. Shinkiro is ver good artist too.
Are u talking about the micron pens. www.amazon.com/Sakura-Pigma-30067-Micron-Blister/dp/B004QHI43S/ref=asc_df_B004QHI43S/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=167139098072&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=136784740560690352&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9016086&hvtargid=pla-84005669126&psc=1
It hasn't been finalized yet. Jim is going to work on it some more and then when it goes up for auction we'll likely get a nice sized scan of the final image.
Underrated channel. But i have a question, how did you start making income off of your art work? And how did you get into a job like this? I always have a passion and urges to draw to improve further and further, but the thought of doing this as a career would make me more than happy if i can live and make money off of my passion. Please i really do want to become a professional artist.
Hi Gin... I'm just a video editor. For questions like that you should try contacting Jim at one of his social media outlets (links in description of this video).
NOOO! ! ! .....here is a list of characters that Jim Lee has NEVER drawn: Bizarro Captain Marvel The Hobgoblin Robocop He-Man Snake-Eyes The Green Goblin Cobra Commander Red-HULK Mister Mxyzptlk Christopher Nolan's version of BANE
@@RP752000 Jim should be trying to showcase is full talents, not taking the comfy road. Let see Jim draw the original vigilante crusader "The Phantom".
@@VZAAGE do you even know why the video is an hour? If it wasn't, no one would've donated more in 20 minutes than someone in an hour Jim Lee knew this himself EVERYONE knows this
That's awesome! I would love to see you draw me like "Dororo" With implants in bone feet running, while running and hitting a tennis ball on fire with a shrimp riding on the ball? I have picture of me running on the court. I had surgery on both feet and no longer can play any more.

My thoughts exactly
*than
I think the weather hates batman, every time he goes out to fight crime, there is a storm xD
It’s all Frank Miller’s fault.
gotham must be in britain, always raining.....
Draw so much Jim Lee ! The new generation need of artist like you!
"Lemme just pose for a minute before I grapple my way outta here"
I believe you meant Bat Pose. Like when he used the Bat Dak to get out of arguing with Bat Girl in the Killing Joke.
It blows me away how easy he makes it look !😱
It is easy, art just takes time but at the end it’s worth every year
This man is a master. even when he makes mistakes he does not freak out he finds ways around them. I would never deserve to meet one with his talent or wisdom. keep drawing Jim Lee
When you start the drawing from a leg and then you work your way up and around = Jedi level drawing skills
The exact thing they all made fun of rob Liefeld for doing in the how to draw video series, lol
This man has inspired an entire generation of artist. I said it before he is a Bob Ross. he makes a white canvas into a work of art
Too bad this generation is all about the Charles Shultz look
god damn. impeccable skill through and through. what I wouldn't give to be able to draw like this.
Art is really a joy. Was having a down week and this came right on time. Haven't seen a Jim lee in a bit and I'm happy to see it. This batman is awesome. Unparalleled foreshortening...but its Jim :)
Glad to have been instrumental in brightening your day but of course most of that is owed to the man Jim Lee.
Jim Lee is the chuck norris of comic books!
Amazing just to sit n watch u draw. Pure talent!!!
This what I call "Perfection".
Thanks for sharing as always. Ive been missing his streams a lot lately
Sweet! I started watching this on Twitch but didn't get a chance to finish. Jim Lee has been one of my biggest influences over the years, watching him draw has taught me a lot and helped me with my own art recently.
Another great video. Damn I love these, keep it up!
I Love that Jim always reads the comments
He draws so oddly, he makes these sloppy outlines into clean masterpieces. it’s so cool.
Most artist start this way "sloppy"
That’s a rule. From general to particular.
Jim Lee is the most naturally gifted.
Soo good!! I love your style mr.lee
Go let him know on his Discord channel... discord.gg/jimlee
Omg!!! That's such a good drawing!!!!!!
Believe me that’s the hardest part taking your pencils that you think came out great then trying to ink them it’s terrifying
Jim's skies always look like aurora borealis. Face looks like Affleck Batman.
You mean Ben Affleck's face is modeled after Lee's Batman
Amazing! One word: amazing!
Man, I really could watch Jim Lee draw all day.
I wish I could DRAW like him
0:30 Jim Lee says "I'm already hatin' this"
0:29 I say "I'm already lovin this"
Hey VZA, its Seth from Emerald City Comic Con. I really appreciate your channel and am learning lots from it. Thank you for continuing to upload great content!
Hey Seth. Great to hear from you, man. Glad to see you're still enjoying the content. I hope you're still pushing yourself to become a better artist.
@@VZAAGE I am! I am striving to be the best artist I can be
Glad to hear that. Keep it up, bud!
@@VZAAGE I shall! Thank you for responding! Wasnt sure if you remembered me haha
Yep... I even remembered that Green Arrow story you told me to check out. I still haven't gotten to it but I will.
Incredible
AMAZING!👍🏾
After sooo long finally
You're the man!!
It's times like these when I think why do I even bother drawing I'll never be anywhere near this level, but life carries on in its own sad way
Don't over think it bro. Just do your best and keep having fun drawing. There's nothing else you can do. Peace

Please draw the original 1939 Batman! You would kill it!
Amazing
Awesome
Just wanna say that you’re an absolute legend sir. The only reason I wanted to draw as a child was to try to copy you.
FANTASTIC! WHAT KIND OF BRUSH USE IT?
Superb art Jim,as always!
Jim can you please tell me if you have an issue with your sakura fineliners when their tip wont feed the ink that good after fast sketch like motions ? Thanks a lot!

Jim is such a badass. The tissue/ink thing is a no go. There are other options that give a much cleaner look. Be fun to see him change it up.
Good! I saw it really well....^^
Any body know of anyone resources Jim Lee has referenced like a how to book for this? I would like to learn to draw like this but don't know where to start
Jim Lee often references book by George Brigeman. Here's a perfect one for beginners... amzn.to/3bQEc35
Everyone says it wrong. It’s george Bridgman not bridgeman
Jim Lee ' s drawing Final Fantasy Squall or Terminator and Sarah Connor.
Joker ' s using The King of Fighters XI ' s Oswald character body sprites.
Shinkiro is ver good artist too.
Does anyone know what kind of pen he used for detailing??
Are u talking about the micron pens. www.amazon.com/Sakura-Pigma-30067-Micron-Blister/dp/B004QHI43S/ref=asc_df_B004QHI43S/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=167139098072&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=136784740560690352&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9016086&hvtargid=pla-84005669126&psc=1
It looks like hes standing on Etrigans head lol
Very nice !!!!
Who will be next generation jim lee
His kids :)
I suggested it should be old batman crouching on a walker instead of a gargoyle.
How do your micron pens drop so much ink? I have the same one that is new and it doesn't seem to put out as much as yours. What's the deal?
The 04 is a pretty good size, though. I like using that with a 005 for finer details and textures. Just my 2 cents. I’m nobody.
Wow amazing!!!
Anyone know a link to a full size image of this?
It hasn't been finalized yet. Jim is going to work on it some more and then when it goes up for auction we'll likely get a nice sized scan of the final image.
@@VZAAGE cheers VZA
Saudações Jim, meu idolo . Gostaria de saber porque você não apresenta seus trabalhos em uma mesa digital.
Who else thinks Jim lee is the best??
ME!!
Me
Me!!!!
RZA...GZA...VZA!!! Thanks!! Batman...na na na na na...Batman!! Love Lee's Batman but I love Neil Adam's Batman too!!!

the white ink is liquid paper?
Yep... this is what Jim uses... amzn.to/2IwlYJN
no one draws like jim lee... almost
C'est super Jim
I Bet This Is A Variant Cover.
Everybody on here kissing Jim's butt should remember that he is one of the big reasons comics are in the messed up state they're in now .
Very shaded.
I’d love for you to draw Anubis from ronin warriors please
Could you consider drawing a new superhero please? It would be cool as hell
NOOO! ! ! .....here is a list of characters that Jim Lee has NEVER drawn:
Bizarro
Captain Marvel
The Hobgoblin
Robocop
He-Man
Snake-Eyes
The Green Goblin
Cobra Commander
Red-HULK
Mister Mxyzptlk
Christopher Nolan's version of BANE
You forgot Rutabagaman...
Jim,
Could you draw the 80s Tim Burton Batmobile with your Batman? Would be awsome!🖒🎉
Batman beyond would be cool too 👍🏻
@@andrew_nelson02 damn that is a good one, I can't believe I left off the list .
@@RP752000 Jim should be trying to showcase is full talents, not taking the comfy road. Let see Jim draw the original vigilante crusader "The Phantom".
What is that white thing he is using
Here you go... amzn.to/2Xvxbhc
31:29
I like it, but now sure why it takes an hour when my dad could do this in about 20 minutes or less
If your dad can do this in 20 minutes... have him send me a video.
@@VZAAGE do you even know why the video is an hour? If it wasn't, no one would've donated more in 20 minutes than someone in an hour Jim Lee knew this himself EVERYONE knows this
No one asked
What a dumbass you are...Your dad couldn't draw this in 20 min. or less even if his life depended on it.
Oh my GOD get the eraser shavings off the paper immediately!!!! Only problem with it
That's awesome! I would love to see you draw me like "Dororo" With implants in bone feet running, while running and hitting a tennis ball on fire with a shrimp riding on the ball? I have picture of me running on the court. I had surgery on both feet and no longer can play any more.
Heh so the why keep using the .4 pencil?? lmao.
Wait I noticed this mom don't us copic other do = D
Why hasn't Jim drawn Gwen Stacy Spider-man, Todd McFarlane already has a drawing out ?
So you become a dad - you get ''infinite dad joke'' superpowers, but you have a kid to raise. Truly with great power comes great responsibility!
Wonder Woman 2 is going to kick butt? Yeah...no.
I won’t do it I make copies and ink them
Who else watches on 2x speed?
ПРИВЕТ С РОССИИ
Average art.boring pose.
His drawing is crazy man. It would take me 3 weeks to draw this lol
Amazing
