Create your own jaw-dropping comic art characters who burst off the page with personality and power!
This is the essential, practical guide to creating believable, unique characters, authored by influential artist Sam Hart - comic book guru of over 30 years.
Aimed at young teens and upwards, this must-have guide is the perfect introduction to creating dynamic, memorable comic book superheroes, supervillains and monsters. With step-by-step instructions and skill-building exercises integrated throughout for fun, fast results, you will build your characters from the ground up:
Start with a comprehensive introduction to the human form , looking at muscles, movement and amplifying characteristics for a superhuman finish
Give your characters charisma and personality through their facial expressions, head movements and masks
Clothe your characters: from spandex to fabric, this section contains everything you need to know to give your superhero their vital, identifying costume
Translate power onto paper (from flight, strength and speed, to x-ray vision, magic and even weaponry)
Create believable, dynamic action poses
Once you master the basics, you’ll move on to advanced skills like creating dramatic perspective, adding narrative and inking to create comic-style tone and shading. Sam also shares special secrets on creating drama and dynamics through layout – a key element of comic book art!
Finally you’ll find advice on ensuring artwork is print-ready with resources including blueline pages for showing your professional-quality work.
With a foreword from John Higgins , prominent comic book artist and writer best known for his colouring work on two of the biggest and most groundbreaking graphic novels of all time – Watchmen and The Killing Joke, this is the must-have guide to bringing your own comic art to life.
