Every now and then throughout my years of drawing I get those pesky things known as hands somewhat decent looking in a drawing. Observe:



I just wish it was more the norm.

2. Any news on Clan Destine as of June 07? I’m working on the fourth issue in a five issue arc. 5. Have you ever considered pencilling in the future for an extended time (if you could) Superman? Wonder Woman(please write her too)? a Rachel Summers mini? Your own version of New New Excalibur? Fanast...

Practice makes permanent I've always heard - so make sure you practice correctly!

Quoting Dennis's question about Pyslocke: I'm interested in Mr Davis' opinion about what happened to the character Psylocke as he was with her in the very beginning. Can you tell us what you think of her change from wholesome upper class English girl into ninja death wench? Dennis For my own tastes,...

I didn't want to post before Mr. D had a chance to respond but since the dam has burst...

Entropy and MiG: Just want to thank you guys for a civil discussion without flaming or insults. That happens all to often in other forums. It's intelligent discussion that can teach me new things and maybe change my view on things as opposed to someone just shouting at me. I should state that I do l...

Inking may have originated as a publishing necessity but the real strength of the comic form emerged because generations of artists adapted to that necessity by developing a singularly raw and immediate visual style. Alan But can't this same line of thinking be applied to digital inking given time?...

While inking can make or break a book, I suppose I don't really mind if it goes away or becomes 'old school' as opposed to the norm. I was always under the impression that inking mainly became important because the cameras that made the film negatives that were then burned on to printing plates need...

Thank you!

Any tips for hands?

Gah! I'm so terrible at drawing hands and I've got articles and books on how to draw them but they don't seem to help.

Thanks!

Hmmn,... the Meggan/Kay idea sounds really cool to me. Of course, I too would want Meggan to survive in the end possibly by kicking Kay out after a long battle of psyches but it wouldn't be any fun without Kay having total control for a while. I could also see it making the rep of the Clan more shad...

Hello sir, Since your well known for drawing good looking women in your comics, I was wondering how you got so good at drawing high heels. Seems a good chunk of comic artists don't draw feet well or shoes. Guess I really just wanted to post because I haven't in a while although I lurk here a lot. DM...
