This was really an "eye opener" lesson!!:)
man, seriously. I have been reading and watching everyones art lessons on drawing eyes, and NO-ONE has explained it and showed it better than You. Thank you
The best comic book artist of all time in my opinion!
defiantly
Fax
Jack Kirby would have something to say about that, in my opinion!
@Haugspore Well your in luck! There are more Art lessons coming soon.
I love that you share these videos & your insights. I'm definitely paying attention. Truly appreciate you. Thank you & rock on!
really useful tutorials, even for real and not digital stuff... it's always great to se one of my favourite pencilers of all time sharing some time to teach drawing basics and this is really helpful! thanks Todd!
Not only are you one of my favorite artists, you are an excellent teacher!!!! Thanks so much for making these videos available.
Back when you were on Amazing Spider-Nan, your technique for eyes was the first thing I noticed and then taught myself.
Amazing work! Thanks for doing these.
you are one of my all time favorite comic book artists EVER!
Thank you for doing these video's Todd, much appreciated.
Loving this - thanks so much for sharing your expertise!
Thanks Todd! More please!
Todd you are such an inspiration. you are my favorite artist. I love the way you did spiderman, I love spawn. just bought the first issue because I have been wanting it. and bought a graphic novel of spawn and spidey. btw great job on the Assassins Creed 4 Black Flag artwork for the poster! it is amazing.
Loved your Follow the Leader Cover for Korn as well. You're spawn lead me to create my own character called Eclipse and a female character called Virus. Thank you
you are the master and a huge influence on many of artist thanks=)
This was eye catching
Thanks very helpful I just have to watch this 10 or 20 times till I get it 😃
I believe that the shine is reflected light that isn't going to illuminate the eye but would reflect. Like say light from a tv or glint from the sun reflecting off whatever.
Thanks for the tutorial Todd. :)
No problem, man! For some reference on this, check out Mike Mignola's work, he likes to use lots of blacked out eye sockets with just the light glinting in them. It tends to give a very spooky, dramatic look.
thanks for the lesson, hope to see you at a show soon.
Awesomeness. White space above the iris is definitely weird looking unless you are doing that surprised look. Though it actually isn't all that uncommon for there to be white space on the underside of the iris. I had an art teacher who insisted that everyone has it underneath(even though my own eyes don't at all...haha) and I thought it was kind of funny that while watching there was a thumbnail for "How to draw comics the marvel way part 8" on the right which was an eye w/ white under the iris.
That makes sense. Thanks.
you are awesome!
Very Helpful THXU!
Thanks for the tutorial Todd
Thanks todd
You mentioned you'd be uploading a tutorial for female eyes. Is that up somewhere? I couldn't seem to find the link to it.
Thanks Todd im prepping several submissions to Image based on designs from my portfolio im using to hire services from your toy company BE ON THE LOOK !! Completely about to make what marvel did with black panther looks like child's play..see you at the TOP TODD
Nice
So basically the 3rd eye. Man to bad you were too young to be my art teacher in the 90's. I would have learned more in 10 minutes than what they could ever teach me. That's when I started emulating you're style.
I've never had truly my own style. I'm just a xerox copy machine. One day when I saw spidey #1. I bought it and decided I wanted it in poster form. I copied the cover to be a replica of the original cover. Pencil drawing into ink. I spent a good 24 hours in completing it. Still have it to this day framed in glass.
I probably need to go back and touch up the faded ink.
Thank you for NOT choosing Baseball. 👍
Great Tips Sir ! Now just gotta fine some YTube channel that does Cross hatching with a Quill Pen and ink demo ?? Shadow and light Techniques ?
you are amazing!!!!
Todd when are you going to do more these are repeats I was hoping that you would have more over the year's O:-)
Superb
thanks todd.
what happened to the other drawing videos that were up here, I was trying to find the how to draw a side profile
You're wrong, because eyeballs are very shiny and reflective, so they catch lots of little secondary light sources, even when in the shadow of the eyebrow from the primary light source. So when a face is in deep shadow, often times you might still see a little white speck or two glinting off the eyeballs, like little embers burning in the dark sockets.
Great work on these videos. I've been studying my comic book illustrations hard core again. 8 to 10 hours a day so that I can start submitting again. Your techniques are going to help greatly! You've always been the reason I started drawing comics at 16 years old when I picked up Spider-Man #1! I know your busy running a company but I gotta try......Check out a speed painting I did of Spawn, your critique is very welcomed! Cant wait to see more videos! Thanks.
But if light is reflecting off your eye, then that must mean that light is shining towards your face, thus, no shadow is cast by your forehead. Right? Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Steve carell?
I created the Phantom Raven the superhero and the superior strangers. Gremlin Comics
I'd like to mention people of Asian decent tend not to have an eyebrow ridge.
This is handy! Very... EYE OPENING. OHOHOHOHOHO~
Watching McFarlane fix a terrible eye drawing is like watching a master tattoo artist save someone's dignity.
Gonna have Logan watch this.
Wait, he can do more than a spawn eye? Toy sales must be down.
In 9 min you learn 10 years worth of school
