[1] Color Zones of the Face [Tried to find source, I think it’s here ] 

[2] Navate’s Skin Chart Supplement – the actual tutorials are:  Section I: Skin Basics &  Section II: Skin tones

Two brilliant skin tutorials. Do not use flat colors for skin! Underpainting is important for realistic, vivid skin. Remember, underneath your skin is fat, muscles, red blood, blue veins, bones. 

Consider reblogging this to support the original artist. I recommend following them as well!

A mini SketchUp guide to help draw the Argo II! SketchUp is free and I use it all the time when I need reference for backgrounds. The 3D Warehouse has plenty of other useful models as well, or you can make your own. Roman Ship by best-lemming is the model I’m referencing for my Mark of Athena comic (It’s the best one that isn’t in water).

2011: An Illustrated Review

A lot of awesome things happened in my life in 2011! I also drew a lot this year. I was going through my Doodles folder today, and I think it tells the story of my year better than I can. So I decided to compile them into a little backwards look at 2011.

This is a tribute of “Gung Ho”, which will be printed in the third volume of the comic.  I met Thomas for the first time at the Amiens-Comic-Festival and he asked me afterwards if I would draw a tribute for the next book. And so I did. These are the  characters Zack and Yuki  having a good time. What I like about the book and what I wanted to illustrate is that there are those quiet beautiful moments, where the humans forget the danger which is hovering above them everyday. It was lot of fun!

Before I get to the crux of this statement, I would like to make it clear that I am very aware and appreciative of the fact that I am in an exceedingly fortunate position, and that the following issues are indeed good problems to have — even more so now that we are in the grips of a global pandemic and a cratering economy which have left millions unemployed. With that crucial context, here is the big news from my little world.

Michael DiMartino and I recently chose to leave Netflix’s live-action adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender, the series he and I created together in 2002. We will have no involvement in the project moving forward. This is probably the most difficult decision I have ever made. But there is no doubt in my mind it was absolutely the right choice.

elementals

[images are 8 paintings of big cats with fantasy elemental motifs: a dark brown lion with stylized flames in place of its mane; a blue snow leopard with snowflake patterns in its coat and icicles forming on its fur; a clouded leopard shrouded in grey stormclouds; a cougar perched on some striated rocks, with geodes dotting its fur; a tiger prowling with bright green vegetation sprouting from its stripes; a winking cheetah with a bright arc of lightning running along the length of its body; a blue jaguar, floating serenely with a ring of water splashing around it; and a purple-tinged panther prowling, with bright pink cracks of arcane energy creeping up from its paws and tailtip. bright diamond sparks float around it.]
