Wayne TullyStudying Comic Books For Inspiration In Your Art
When it comes to comic books, this is something I know a lot about and there are thousands of comic books out there, but only a handful that will inspire you to draw and create more fantasy concepts. I have been a long time collector of comic books and the visual medium that the comic provides is one of the best types of art around, art that tells a story with each picture is like directing a film of your very own, taking into consideration angles and lighting.
If you've never read any comcis, then you need to start and start right now, as this is a visual media that has been very popular for many years and it is one that will always be so, there are lots of artists out there who have either been trained in the art or self taught or sometimes they may not have been a long term comic book fan.
The study of comic books helps to form your drawings into good compositional pieces and really helps you to understand the processes of drawing and the story telling visuals that can be achieved.
I recommend you build up a small comic book collection for you to get inspired by the art and the stories, as something that can be viewed as reference material at anytime.
Or take a look on the Internet and search for comic book art, this could prove easier if you prefer not to buy any comic books yourself.
