A page from “Incredible Comics” by Tom Nguyen. Heheh. Great book.

Wow. That’s really aiming at the Liefeld art style, complete with the scrunched up, angry face.

DON’T Liefeld. DO Anything Else.

I actually have this picture saved on my phone at all times so I can always explain to anyone what Liefeld is

Oh no it’s a COLOURING WALKTHROUGH

The last time I did one of these I felt it was inadequate because all I did was flip through the layers of a completed piece. So this time I took screenshots as I drew!

Other notes:

This is only my method for fast colouring; if I had, say, metallic objects, or fur to colour I would likely paint it with none of the shadows layer masking business, which seems to work best on objects that aren’t particularly shiny.

If you look at the timestamps, apparently I took about an hour an a half to colour this.

Smoothing out the shadows was done with a hard round brush with flow and opacity controls turned on. (it’s a default brush.)

Your flat colours are the most important part of this process - the layer adjustments trick will save you from having to pick a second round of colours for shadows manually, but if your flats aren’t up to scratch the whole piece will suffer. Make sure your colour scheme works here before moving to shading.

Finished product can be found here. I hope this is helpful!

This is Jack Hamm’s entire section on folds, minus a page that was repetitive so I ditched it to fit the photoset limit. If you guys like, I’ll scan more of his stuff from time to time, I have been trying to get everyone on board with him forever!

To reiterate, these scans are from Jack Hamm’s Drawing The Head And Figure.

So, after years of visiting possibly the greatest art resource online, Gurney Journey (website of the creator of the gorgeous Dinotopia series, as well as numerous amazing drawing/painting books. Seriously this guy is INCREDIBLE LOOK AT HIS BLOG), I got this amazing poster promoting his latest book, Color and Light.

But I am vary rarely in one place long enough to look at the glorious thing on my wall, so I compiled a digital version.

You can buy his wonderful books here, but as far as I know the poster isn’t available in his store :<

Hey kids! If you’re a filmmaker, animator, or storyboard artist and you don’t know what screen direction is, you might want to read this.

For the record, there are always exceptions to the rule in filmmaking, which is why I pointed out 3 examples here.

I’ve also found that comic books tend to NOT take screen direction as seriously as film does, but I’m still on the fence if this is wise or not. My favorite comics pay close attention to screen direction so as to not confuse the reader.

Good luck!
