Same with esad ribic

@@treyricks7348 yes!! I think the exact same thing.

For me jim lee, jack kirby, Greg capullo

Agreed

I agree with the others. Also Jae Lee.

Exactly same here

I didn't even know he's still alive lol, cause judging from his artworks, it looks pretty vintage that I thought his works were from the 70s or something.

@@ammagon4519 He's only 52, thats just his style. Evan "Doc" Shaner also has a vintage golden age style to his art and he is only in his mid to late 30s

I only found out about his channel a few days ago. I have then started to search up my favourite artists to see if they have KZfaq channels

And this makes you feel shame?

"wolverine, Its time to Color Dodge!" Huh... Wrong Ross... Again...

If they havent taken the cigars away from the character that could be arranged. lol

Hahahahahaha

That was funny, really good.

I get mixed up all the time

Honestly as dramatic as it sounds like it’s a profound way of thinking of art in any medium as a character.

He once said it's a way to not be doing corrections. On a digital format you would be asked to re-do and correct certain parts acording to the editor's whim, sometimes endlessly. They can't do that with traditional means.

@@leandrotarsia7212 it CAN be done, its just not economically viable as you need more time.

@@chilesuicmez I think what he meant was: you can't re-do a gouache painting over the deadline while a digital work can be tweaked and rearranged extensively. He said he didn't want to give the editor that option.

@@leandrotarsia7212 yes he meant that, but you can, actually you CAN re-start the whole piece, but eventually deadlines cant wait, is something one is capable of doing, via sharp blade to take the paint off, or another layer of white/the new color/the correction, i get its way faster in a digital drawing to change stuff, at the point of being disposable, im into traditional handmade art, so yes you can do it, its just not efficient in todays time (also requires presition and planning).

@@leandrotarsia7212 Yeah, as a traditional artist I confirm that. That's why all modifications must be made in the sketch phase.

SAMMMME. One time in goodwill I found a kingdom cone comic and I instantly recognized Alex Ross and the comic series itself. I immediately got the comic lol

I have so many books in my collection that I haven't even read that I bought for his cover art alone. The shop near me was selling bundled sets of Astro City that I simply couldn't pass by. The incredible detail and hyper-realistic style was instantly recognizable as Mr. Ross's and at $1 per issue they were worth it just as artwork to savor in hand. Eventually I will get around to reading them but until then the covers will do.

John Byrne was like the older classic, and Jim Lee is the modern classic. They're not like Alex Ross and Esad Ribic, but still.

I've met and talked a bit with Neal Adams. He seems to think differently. While he certainly draws the same way, outlining muscles and the human figure in a very classic way, he prided himself in being an actual costume designer. He mentioned he created actual costumes for teathre and cinema. And he said that he approached superheroes with the same mentality. When he created costumes, he thought of them as something that might have been actually worn by a superhero, which means he added pockets to store items, he made boots strong and with reinforced soles, like military equipment, etc.

@@Shendue that's an interesting outlook. I suppose my opinion came from hearing all the arguments of my friends and family about why it was better that the X-Men didn't have their comicbook costumes and I'm still bitter about it.

@@someoneontheinternet3090 read Astro City by Busiek

@@someoneontheinternet3090 i'm hoping that's about to change as they assimilate X-men/F4 into the mcu.

But they do need to be relatable

I remember looking at work on kingdom come. I was Obsessed! I was blown away with how different his art is. I was all about Jim Lee and other great artists. But when I saw Alex ross I knew this was special. I’ve always said he’s Michelangelo of comic books. It’s not comic book art. It’s ART!

In my humble opinion the art is top notch as illustrations, but in comic book form they lose a lot of the movement pen and ink style pages have. That goes the same for other incredible artists like Gabrielle Delotto, Jay Anacleto, Esad Ribic and many others that approach a page by a painter's perspective and they do pen and ink work. =/... I wonder if its just me.

@@juandelossantos1866 why is comic book art less "ART" than the other? lol

This style of art just never appeals to me but was still fun to watch and learn from. His anatomy and form arent much different than say Jim lees drawings but he goes into way more realistic detail with the values and colors. Hyper realistic art is cool but i wouldn't say its more impressive than other styles just different. Im personally more impressed by impressionistic artists and pop artists styles.

@@mrcrowleybr comic book art looks great. But when it comes to that realism factor. No one works like Ross. His joker and Harley cover can be in a museum.

Check out Esad Ribic, if you don’t know him.

@@AmedeeBoulette yeah, i've seen some of his works and they're great. Hard to top Ross tho

@@rafaelluz7637 Different styles to approach art fundamentals. No need to compare.

literally nothing unique is going on here... using paint on paper while looking at a photo, wtf u talking about unique.

@@twsartadventures3660 its unique when it comes to comic books, I dont know any other artist with this gorgeous painterly style

Democrats though.

@@SHONNER what LOL

@@mrcrowleybr It's too late to save the comicbook industry. Not with SJW activists running around.

Purge the sjws.

I am not starfire

especially since your college "education" isn't worth anything since almost none of it is true.

Correction: His art style and his talent are priceless.

And he deserves it

I didn't think being short would affect your painting! Ba-dum-ting

Shirley you must be joking...

@@b.a.barackas2141 Actually, I'm serious. Oh, and don't call me Shirley.

Makes it even scarier that he’s an Albertan haha

It's gatorboard, quit a common board for stretching watercolor paper on.

When he draw Wonder Woman, he just need look his own face.

that's why most of the male superheroes he paints kinda have similar facial features to his own.

And with boots. Don’t forget the boots.

Same here. It never made sense to have this guy in bright yellow. He is the kind of guy who lurks in the shadows. His outfit should be darker colors. The earth-tones work so much better.

@@RansomeStoddard exactly this!

It’s that not gouache?

this is the level of art education, these kids know literally nothing. he's not even close.
