The Venture Brothers

I think about these guides on how to draw Brock from the character supervisor on vbros all the time. The way the human body is drawn is one of my favourite things about vbros - even a near superhuman, action hero character like Brock Samson is drawn like a real person!!! Of course it's simplified and cartoonish but there's real care in the thinking of; how he physically moves and how his age and lifestyle affects his appearance. It's so different to how alot animated shows and comics draw their characters - often giving characters unrealistic or idealized proportions to create appeal, but in vbros the appeal IS the realism. I think this whole design ethos reflects the show as a whole in that; yes, Brock is an action hero, but he's also a PERSON, he doesnt look like an action figure, he appears to be this epitome of tough guy masculinity but he has a soft side !! he cares about the boys, he's sensitive and he makes mistakes !! he's flawed !!! and i think that's true on some level for every character in vbros
