    What I like about David is all the mistakes he makes, and how he is still able to redo his sketches and get a great result. It's a process that everyone can use.

    So real talk, I remember meeting back at Heroes Con, in 97. I had your Ascension books and loved your art. I remember asking you how long you had been drawing, your response was 3 years. And I thought I had asked wrong, and I said "No, not for Image, how long have you been doing art." You looked at me and said, "Three years." Still blown away to this day.

    The best part about this video is that you have no qualms of showing that even a pro can goof up in a thumbnail. No one is perfect and it makes the amateurs feel like they too can get back on top from a simple error. Great tutorial

    Quick one from me. When drawing a character it can really add to the story telling if the opponents don't act properly to a punch, if you wanna portray the villain as stronger or the mc as inexperienced and stiff.

    @gubjorgm.2259 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    This helped me so much! All tutorials I have found aren't advanced enough for me. I want to get better at action scenes because I want to make an action comic, but the movements were just never what I wanted. I like when it feels alive and is flowy. I'm about to graduate art school soon so I already have a good grip on anatomy and movement and stuff like that, but not action. All the other tutorials where either covering the basics or just felt too stiff for what I wanted. Sure I knew all the rules but I am a visual learner. So seeing this with the intend for a comic and the base sketch easily translating to my style was perfect! It was also nice seeing you do multiple angles and sometimes slightly bending the rules of anatomy. I know by now that you are allowed to do that because it gives better movement, but I didn't know when to bend it to get what I want. But I think this helps. Thanks!
