I remember seeing his art work when i was 7 and i was confused if it was a photo or a painting i love his work so much

I just love the little details in Alex Ross' art like 11:55 where you can see the webs on Spider-Man's forearms are slightly misaligned indicating that he's wearing gloves and that his suit is not just one singular piece. Things like that make it feel so much more alive.

I love how Ross doesn’t apologize for not painting these characters like they’re on steroids, or have implants. He paints the anatomy as it would actually look. He doesn’t show the cut muscles through the costumes, he paints the costumes like people actually wearing clothing.

holy shit the amount of detail on his silver surfer drawing sadly being covered mostly on the mural saddens me

I really appreciate you for staying true to the iconic designs, the MCU is just fucking up everything so at least through your art kids can see how these characters were meant to look

12:35 Alex Ross is the only artist to show Spider-Man with lips. He clearly favours realism over style. That alone makes him my favorite artist.

Alex Ross is the official portrait artist of super heroes

I Am So Happy That Alex Will Show Full Demonstration Of SPIDEY!

Hands down my favorite comic book artist ever. His work in Kingdom Come and his cover artwork is untouchable and iconic.

Love his artwork. That's exactly how I see the marvel characters if they were to come to life. Very Norman Rockwell style

I love the classic costumes. Ross is a master.

You should do a series of videos like Bob Ross used to do, except with comic book characters instead of mountains

Right on Alex! Respect for these classic superheroes 👊

Alex Ross, you are a treasure!

Such a beautiful Spider-Man- the light- the fabric is glorious. So great how Spider-Man is that character who looks normal in a crouch even when Ross turns him upside down.

We need more artists like him. It's always a pleasure listening to him.

Alex Ross is comic book royalty. A true historian and master of the art form. Tarantino needs to a direct an Alex Ross style spiderman man movie

Alex, I think you definitely succeeded in bringing appreciation for the original costume with the Raimi Spider-Man trilogy because of your intro credits art. Even as a kid, I loved the movie suit, but I saw your art at the beginning and thought "oh wow...that's even better." Your art is so transformative for all of these characters so I don't doubt you've instilled the values of their history in other people!

Who doesn't want to see a video by the game-changing comic artist of all time ? BTW Alex, if you are reading this, you are probably the greatest artistic inspiration I'm ever going to have, thank you so much for building a part of my childhood with your hyper-realistic comic sketches .

You're a hero Alex. I love the art you did for the Spider-Man 2 opening credits.

Alex Ross is the most unique and talented comic book artist I’ve seen in an age. Pretty hard to top him. Ross and the late, great Neal Adams are probably my two favorites.

I never would have guessed that one my favorite artists was not only so young but also has a fantastic speaking voice. Wow.

YES ! YES ! FINALLY !

Alex Ross is the GOAT of comic book artists. His characters feel so visceral, so real. I take much inspiration for my comic book artwork from him.

bring justice to the originals!. i love your works and your mindset.

I love his work on Kingdom Come. It‘s the one graphic novel I wish they would make a movie out of

Dudes voice is soothing and hes the voice of all the 45+ guys out here who still love comics

How is it im just finding this. Sheesh. Anyway, thanks for the content Mr Ross. Been a huge fan for decades now... Man, time flies.

Nice video documenting Alex's thought process and and Spider-Man art. I think it was "Marvels" in the early 90's where I first saw his art and of course the realistic painting was exciting and new to view. The intro to the Spider-Man 2 film, with Elfman theme and SM1 recaps painted by Alex, very nearly choked me up at the theater - I love that! It should be done again!

kingdom come is one of my favorite series of all time. i've read it 5 or 6 times. all the easter eggs in the art always blows my mind. amazing work Alex Ross

Every Marvel movie should look and feel like an Alex Ross come to life. The lighting, the camera angles, the colors... give us our childhood imaginations come to life. Cmon

Alex, thank you so much for helping to preserve the classic aesthetics of these timeless characters. The way you talk about them also really resonates with me. And I love Hawkeye’s mask and classic costume too!

I can totally relate regarding Electric Company's Spider-Man. I can't wait to see the mural. Hopefully their will be a print for sale.

Alex Ross u r a legend among artists

definitely like the new style of longer, more intricate videos !

He is on another plane when it comes to his artwork geez louise

I've been waiting for video like this from Alex for years!

It amazes me more that he’s talking and explain while being able to paint these details so accurately

Every time i see an alex ross art piece my reaction is, holy goddamn fucking shit its incredible

Love Alex Ross's work

I Dont know why but seeing you hold your canvas and paint makes me happy haha

my god, your realism is *INSANE*

Alex is as articulate as he is artistic. This was great to listen too and watch.

Mr. Ross, I really appreciate your sharing with us your thoughts as well as your artistic methods. These are times of uncertainty and quarantine, and your words are essential to enter this vast world of design. I was 4 years old and I remember Bob Ross shows. It is no coincidence that my 2 main influences in painting, share the last name, in some way, it was already written, and you two motivate me with your videos, and literally, the imagination is the limit. You already have success, so I can only wish you a long life and prosperity.

I was the same way growing up. Popeye and the Hulk were mine... Always directed my schooling twords illustration but had to take time off after i got my aassociates in "applied sciences"/ graphic arts. I never went back and only dabled in cincepts just to get the idea down on paper but unfortunately thats it... Ppl who known me since childhood say this should have been my life....😒. Im a huge fan of your work and ideas, and you hit the nail on the head with refurring to the admiration of others artist work lol☺. Congratulations on your successes my friend.☺👍👍👍👍

More Spider Man, more more more!!!

i am a loyal admirator of you style when you drawing the characters of marvel we stay truly out of this planet because that is other art level

Big fan, and I always enjoy the content, however, not quite what I expected. Just more talking about the biz, history, and process which feels sort of redundant at this point. What I would love to see is the actual physical process itself; from the moment Ross enters the studio, to the introduction of his tools and paints, to taping that specific paper onto his board, and just giving us a sense of what goes on in his head as he paints.

My favoueite superhero that Alex Ross draws is: Hulk. His design or arts of Hulk is for me the Best Design,especially Hulk's face!!

Such beautiful work. I’m always in awe watching you. Thank you for sharing.

such an inspiration, just had to draw while listening to you. thank you man!

More mind blowing Rockwelling stunning work. The Norman Rockwell of comics and of the 21st century.

Truly remarkable

Just amazing, phenomenal artist.

you as well as your amazing art are both very honest, your work genuinely calms me which is sometime i rarely experience in visual media. :)

Thank you for this video, Alex!!!

I'm so impressed!! Thanks for sharing.

Excelent work!

The GOAT comic artist without a doubt!

My favorite artist rn, a god at art

A classic and amazing. THE Classic, and THE Amazing. The one and only... Alex Ross.

I love your style so nostalgic

Alex ross your art is amazing

Amazing alex just amazing

Incredible what this guy do.

Moved by your art for years, your words. Happy I rediscovered your Channel. Subscribed, FINALLLYY!

I just love the angles that Alex uses, some of those any artist would basically have to use reference to get the most dynamic but also accurate and realistic shot.

I could watch him paint for hours.

Amazing.

I like the most during the detailed process👍👍👍👍👍

Red and black spidey. Man of culture

Incredibile art. I love your work.

i love this realistic way!

this is the coolest guy in the world

im collecting these now,,,,amazing covers

Again you are the best artist I ever seen plus I met Alex 7 years ago very very down to earth guy or I think it was more then that

There! Now there should be no more mystery about Mr. Ross's process. He's laid it out countless times from the paper he uses to the type of pencils. The rest is up to us now to go out and make great art we can be proud to share with the world!

Beautiful.

Thank you Maestro!

Desenhos fabulosos. Amei!!! Parabéns.

I’ve been waiting for this video for ages haha

Can't wait!!!

Love your work.

alex is what he's doing with the characters, i don't really understand how but i just feel it, i first saw his Batman and for me it's The Batman

You are watching a master at work

Something funny about how you pictured spider-man, this is the first time i see how you look and i always pictured you like some old scary dude like Frank Miller or Alan Moore, but you actually are pretty young🤣

The Joy of Painting ...Super heroes with Alex Ross

Amazing video ! I would love to see an Alex Ross full documentary on dvd/blu-ray like Drew Suzan did with his work on Hellboy, I think a lot of people would buy it

11:32 Is a good point and for his comics we'd want it but it would clash with Cap during Avengers films. It's just cool since we've learned more now. The Raimi suit is massively different to the classic one but still is truly Spider-Man made extra detailed for his cinematic debut. I feel like now the audiences have learned to accept even less detailed designs we could lean towards something extra classic, more nostalgic than we realize, like the suit Miles has in ITSV, a pyjama walmart costume that gradually transforms into the Universal suit, then something like Hammond's into Ross' design them Tasm 1 and forward from there into something classic but unique.

That was a great video thankyou.

Espetacular.

wow this is amazing!

Yeahh!! 👏👏👏👏👏

you are the best sir thank you for this videos

Man i miss reading comics, read alot of both Marvel and DC books over the years, but Spider-Man was the character that made me love comics, i read almost every Spider-Man story from the beginning up untill One More Day, that story just broke my love for comics. Since i probaly read about 5 Spider-Man books the rest have been 10 Dark Horse Star Wars, but i just can´t get into it again, i hope i one day will again, might just need to start reading the classics again.

Amazing video

"I love bringing Harley Quinn to life through my coloured pencils. There's just something about her character that speaks to me and I feel like I can capture her essence in my art."

I love that he talks about changing the subject matter of his drawings between the ages of 3 and 4. Who draws when they're 3? I did a lot of cartooning and copying comic art as a kid, but I started that at maybe 7-8 years old. At 4 I doubt anyone had even given me a crayon.

Legend. Bigups 🍻

I swear that must be dang near an inch thick. That is some mega layering.
