I will be there, and hopefully I will know him, yay..

I began my site in response to requests for roughs, sketches and unpublished work so most of my early postings were of ‘unseen’ work that enthusiasts had already mentioned on Ryan Bedard’s Thy Te Internet Junction. After a year or so I felt I had posted the most interesting or best and began to pos...

Thx a lot for the advices, you are very right, specially about the feelings about such a work, and sometimes the point of view of someone else makes the work richer.
I suppose sharing, having patience and knowing when to delegate into the other is the key to finish a work for good.

Hello mr. Davis, after reading the post about Byrne, it came to my mind a problem that I have, and maybe you have something to say about it. From 10 years ago, when I was an art student, I've allways wanted to work with a friend of me, who wants the same. We are both artists, and we like the work of...

There is a link to a translation of the spanish interview done to mr. Davis in a thread done by Ilke. The web translator is so horrible that I've spend some time fixing it a bit for myself, im not a pro of translations, but hey, its hard to do it worse than the web translators..:) Here it is: Was ye...

Well, I think I understand what you say, but again, I think mr. Davis is right. Books of anatomy and understanding of the work of other artists are indeed a must, but you have to remember that those artists change reality through their own understanding, and you must know that reality to change it y...

Sorry for posting here, MiG, since its the post of Mr.Davis the one that really matters. But if you ask me, you have some nice work done there, I like a lot the number 25.

The only way to learn drawing hands and feets, at least in my point of view, is draw from living models, nude models females and males. As many as you can, and if you cant, use internet. At some point our minds understand the shape of it for real.

After some posts here, I suppose its polite to show myself 1) What is your real name? Guillermo P. Mogorrón 2) Where you from? Madrid, Spain 3) How old are you? 28 4) What is your favorite Alan Davis work? For a great artist like mr. Davis, each job is better than the last one, so I will use nostalg...

Sorry for keep adding replys to the thread, but its quite interesting, but now that you talk about Buscema inkers, someone in that same convention asked John Buscema about his favourite inker.
His reply was:
-Myself.

I have to agree here with mr Davis, if the inking proccess is part of a chain of work, like in US comics, the artist lose control in a small or big part, (depends of the inker), and digital inking gives a big part of the proccess to one person that is not the penciler. But for some ways of understan...

Well Alan, I think your corrections about what I say are right, and about the buscema story, Im sure that he was not bitter about his art or his skills, but maybe about what he did in comic book industry sometimes, the commercial part, as you say. Probably I was not able to tell the story as it was,...

If I can add something, I was years ago in the Gijon Comic Con when John Buscema and Sergio Aragones were guests there, It was one of the best weeks in my life, and the top moment for many of us was the conference of John Buscema. John in his speech was talking about how his work in comic books, how...

Thank you for your reply, and thank for your words. I know what you mean, and I hope people respect your work. Its a honour to me to link your web, and the only stealing i can be guilty of is the one that your influence did on my style, I hope it be not very obvious. I hope it be like the influence ...

Hello, Im not the first one thanking you and your awesome work, mr Davis, for making my love for comics and drawing grows. But I really do, your work inspired me, and still after years of reading you, I still find a pleasure to find new jobs from you, like reading an old friend that keeps surprising...
