@ryanbnjmnart Can you share how do you not get bored and tired and fed up drawing or inking for so long..is it.mlstly really fun? What if I want to do visual art and music and maybe virtual reality too? Surely isn't the retire to do all three things ?

Ryan's one of the few great comic artists left in the industry. It's a shame he isn't drawing a regular series for either DC or Marvel. They should focus on great art once again.

What's interesting about that point at the end about your work at Sony is that when I was in school for game design, they tried hard to convince us that being a jack of all trades was a bad thing, and that we should pick a specific niche, and get really good at it, because thats what the big companies wanted. All the guys at that studio probably got that same advice in school. I just remember thinking that was about the stupidest thing I had ever heard, especially considering this was about a decade ago, when the indie boom was really getting kicking into high gear, and I was beginning to see these little teams of generalists or even solo devs making themselves tons and tons of money by being multi talented and I knew I could do that. The fact that I was a generalist meant I ended up as basically the defacto leader of the team on my capstone course project in college, because I was able to communicate with the person who was really good at drawing, because I could do art, but I could also communicate with the guy who was a genius programmer, because I knew how to program, and I could act as the bridge between them. I definitely feel some of the downsides, I do wish I had the time to focus on one particular thing like drawing or 3D art or programming to get really good at it, but I also know having the unique skillset I have is a rare gift

Hey Ryan! Beautiful man! Thanks so much for this. I want to mention two things. I know that you understand this, but I just want to put it into words. 1) Many comic book artists DO NOT take the time to CORRECT the DRAWING PROBLEMS in the beginning stages of the art piece. perspective, anatomy, lighting, etc etc 2), Many inkers are so bad that they take a good pencil drawing, that is 3D and make it look FLAT!

i have always loved your style especially with batman but i am so happy and glad to see a master artist that is sharing techniques and skills to those who want to learn but dont know where or how to start... I saw you had Whilce Portacio or of your bootcamp clips i would love to see if you could get jonathan glapion to come do a inking demo or tutorial... again thank you for all the amazing knowledge your dropping in these videos =)

Any advice for a new comic artist who has a strong pencil but lack inking meaning that i feel i mentally shut down everytime i take a pen on my hand.

@ryanbnjmnart 7 ай бұрын

Inking takes a different mind set to get into it. I felt the same way but I was determined to understand inking. I looked at the original work of other inkers to help me. I would make photocopies of their work and have it next to me to motivate and inspire me to ink. The key is to learn how to hold your hand and arm and control of the tool you are using. Take the Comic Pro boot Camp workshop to work with me and other pros on how to do it.

Beginner inker tip- Don't start off trying to ink Jim Lee. Jim's work is a bit wild and requires a lot of good judgment and improv that you won't have yet. Look to older pencil work by guys like John Buscema to really hone your line-craft first.
