Some Studies

These are just some good images I found that I thought were good to study from.

I feel like I'm stuck drawing characters floating in space and I figured I should try making drawings of characters within backgrounds that are all under a well-structured composition.

I wanna try incorporating some background elements within my drawings and studying these I thought would help me to do so.






The first two images I got are from Chris' awesome ComiCrazys blog! Lots of neat and inspirational stuff there! Go there NOW!

The last one I found was in John's blog of a Kurtzman post.

    Great studies, I have the same problem as you. Now I'm doing some background studies (construction and color) and it has been really hard to me.

    Anyway, keep on practice!

    It's good to study Kurtzman, but I would not go to the final stage of cleaning it up. You want to study his compositions, structure and use of silhouettes

    for example-the knot in the tree has more of a solid form and sticks out more in silhouette

    The top 2 panels are drawn by an artist that isn't very good, so you won't get much out of copying his awkward scenes

    If you wanna advance fast, stick to the lessons I put up here and concentrate on what you are studying - and analyze like I said in earlier posts

    your pal,

    John
