One could get lost in those eyes This thread reminded me of something I posted in a "Funny Panels" thread awhile ago and I had to dig it up. Unfortunately I cannot for the life of me remember what it is from. It's obviously Marvel from the J.J. reference but other than that I do not recognize it all  The guys hair, forehead, and eyes are simply horrible. The girls arms creep me out. It's painful on my eyes possibly due to the lack of perspective (or multiple ones). I am not an artist by any means and when I look at something like a comic and think "with very little effort I believe I could draw better than that" then I lose all respect.

There is some FANTASTIC art in it, and here's some pages from one of the stories. Honestly, I love Moebius. One of the best comic artists, ever.        Just look at this stuff. It's amazing.

kerascoet is one of my favorite artists, and hugest inspirations to better myself in comics. Their simple style and taste are just perfect. I only own the Miss don't touch me series, I'm hoping they'll translate more of her? work. Blog http://www.kerascoet.fr/

Mr Wind Up Bird posted:You know who actually sucks? Greg Horn What's great about this image is that you scroll down it and it goes from "hmm, that is a pretty crappy Batman head" to "awkwardly posed too, and I don't like the shading" to "oh god, is that someone's butt?" to "oh poo poo no  ".

EndOfTheWorld posted:Inio Asano's totally tits, it's true, but I want to look at some more Humberto Ramos. Also, didn't he do part of "Word Without Grown-ups" or whatever it was called, the story that led to the creation of Young Justice? He did the section in the "kid's world" and another artist did the "adult" world. I thought that was a really good use of his style BizarroAzrael fucked around with this message at 19:42 on Apr 13, 2011 |

Greg Horn is so terrible, that catwoman is terrible in every way. And then there is this  All of the men's facial expressions are so over referenced they don't even appear real, then you keep scrolling down the image and oh god I now feel terrible that I even have a penis.

EDIT: ^^ Oh man, I thought it was good, realistic faces with good expressions. Then I continued to scroll down. I really like this week's Uncanny X-Men's cover (and it's not Land!). It really feels like an old Star Wars poster (probably intentional, given the storyline). It was penciled by Terry Dodson, according to Marvel's site.

Yeah, I'm just stating my citation. Also, I know I didn't even notice the signature there the first time, so I wanted to make it a bit more human-readable. Plus, I don't know if he inked/colored it, so I'm just giving what I do know.

The worst part about the Catwoman picture is that neither of her legs appear to be touching the ground. Hell, both of her shins appear to be missing. She's clearly balancing on her tits.

She's clearly balancing on her tits. In the Powergirl picture a few posts up I thought PG was missing everything below her torso. Basically her entire body is made up of her chest, her arms, her neck and head.

EthanEde posted:Greg Horn is so terrible, that catwoman is terrible in every way. And then there is this I think it's pretty obvious by now that Greg Horn has some female issues and gets off on seeing them dominated and in submissive poses. The Power Girl one is an interesting example, as she's always been a strong feminist character(albeit stereotypical, as comic book nerds obviously aren't good at writing those). She's obviously supposed to be in some sort of army boot camp and the drillmaster is screaming 100 PUSHUPS MAGGOT! at her...but it still manages to look sexual instead. If she looked angry or at least determined, it may have made it a bit better. Mister Roboto fucked around with this message at 14:18 on Apr 15, 2011 |

Well, to be fair, he might not have Women complex, he might just draw a lot of sexual stuff like that because he knows it sells a lot. Didn't he audition these images or some poo poo?

The DI is in marine MARPAT cammies, and so are the pants, but the 3 patrol caps are army issue with a completely different pattern, and what looks like a Lt. Colonel rank on them. Also why are their reactions to the same event so drat different? Also why is that last guy wearing a white T shirt, he looks like he was cut out of a facebook photo or something.

My favorite comic artists are dead.  Mike Wieringo  I think he just did the definitive FF look and no one will draw a better Thing. Ever. It hit me kinda hard when he died. Seth Fisher  Another FF image, but I think he was such a genius and was on the verge of something that would have made him a household name. I was trying to find my least favorite piece of comic art, which again is the Fantastic Four. It's an overly-90s Reed Richards who is just so over-muscled. If I remember correctly, it was Herb Trimpe who had been told to ape Liefeld.

redbackground posted:I actually quite like PG's facial expression--it's not a blank porn face or anything, and there's actual character there. I like her facial expression too, and the concept for the image isn't bad. Boob jokes are fairly common under certain writers of Power Girl, so the idea of a drill master getting upset at her because she can't do a proper push up due to her giant breasts isn't that out of place. Her expression of "welp, nothing I can do about it" gives a good sense of character. If it were just her and the drill master it would be pretty good. The background is an absolute mess. Why is Nathan Fillion so shocked at her that he's cowering in fear and his hat flew off. Is his secret fear women doing push ups and each one causes him to cower even further? The hat in the air shows that he suddenly shot down in a split second, so fast he left his hat behind. Why is Ludacris so excited? Is it cause he's looking at her butt? Does he want her to succeed? Why is he in a white t-shirt. Ludacris guy also isn't lit the way the rest of the scene is. It looks like it's at dawn or sunset, with low light, and Ludacris looks like he was photographed inside with a flash. Fish Of Doom fucked around with this message at 00:11 on Apr 16, 2011 |

Matt Cruea posted:My favorite comic artists are dead. Yep. . .  Herge was the reason I got into reading comics when I was a kid. I just love how simplistic yet elegant his style is. Herge was brilliant at painting a world, without leaving Belgium he managed to create exotic foreign vistas using photo-references.(he wasn't too good at portraying non-Belgians though)  I also think that Herge is brilliant at conveying motion and emotion, especially with Captain Haddock.  I wish I had some better examples, but I can't find much else right now that's not a cover. Dr. Hurt fucked around with this message at 05:24 on Apr 16, 2011 |

Some personal favorites: Basil Wolverton — his art is a portal to a sweaty, greasy Weirdness Dimension where every twelve seconds something is punctuated by a shrill orchestral sting played on a dirty phonograph.  Jim Lawson — classic TMNT artist (the best, I think) with a deceptively simple style and loads of personality, always perfectly balancing comedy and pathos. He's one of those artists whose pencils never look nearly as good when other people ink them.  Geof Darrow — every panel he draws is like the first thing you see after stepping out of a time machine on a bright spring morning when you're already a little hung over.

I always feel bad for Igor Kordey. The guy was brought on to rush a book that had fallen behind and he did the absolutely impossible job he was hired to do. His work suffered from how quickly he'd had to crank it out and instead of the system being blamed for the problem, he get's all the crap for it. He's actually pretty good when he has more than a week to finish a book. Link to back me up. quote:Newsarama: When you came to Marvel, what was the impression that you were under in regards to your workload? Was it going to be, from the outset, just one book, or were they (or you) wanting to look to expand your load to include more projects?

Huh I always thought that, while the art was strange and wild in New X-men that it totally fit the story. I wasn't reading his other works at the time but I felt like this was art that filled around the G-Mo story I was reading. It's a big part of why I really like that run. It messes with my head just looking at the page. It's all strange and squishy, totally not the bright and shiny X-men you become accustomed to.Solvalou posted:The perfect X-men Easter story.
