I wish KZfaq and these Jim Lee videos had existed when I was 10 years old. I'd probably be a comic book artist by now.

This guy's a genius. I wish I could've taken a course about this stuff in high school. Art classes aren't the same thing, they're usually talking about paintings and stuff.

His "simple" sketches always blow me away. Wish we could clone Jim and have him teach at every art school

Most insightful tips on how to visualize body movement I've ever been exposed to. Since watching this, I created a dozen quick sketches and one nailed the action I visualized simply by relating the chest and pelvis positions.

I've never seen anyone draw so quickly and accurately. Jim is a fucking savage

Jim IS the modern day Jack Kirby. No one else has been so influential in the field of modern comics.

0:42 Jim Lee? More like Gym Lee.

This is the ComicBook version of Leonardo daVinci teaching how to paint

*shows the basic shapes of chest* :Okay *Immediately draws other parts of the body* :WAITTTTT

* crying in amazement while feeling extremely inspired* I will learn the way.. I will.....

*when he started drawing the stick in the figure's hand* Me: Oh God, yes. Please be Daredevil. *starts drawing the D's on the chest* Me: YESSSS!!!!

You have to be in awe at Jim’s incomparable work ethic - such confidence with every line

This guy is a genius. Makes it look easy.

Real happy i stumbled across this!!! I couldn't believe it when i read that Jim Lee is giving are lessons, unbelievable. I can't stop smiling as i watch them. Thanks!!

Jim doesn't owe us an apology for anything. I appreciate him taking the time and effort to explain how it's done.

How amazing and helpful is this! Especially love the line at the beginning about learning off anatomy (alone) not being enough to pull these off- that's what I've learnt for myself as well.

Jim Lee and Todd McFarlane. Two of my favorite comic book artists of all time! This is an absolute treat to watch and learn! :)

seeing that guy in the back at 6:13 scared the hell out of me at 3am

Thank you so much for posting these. Eye opening. So much comprehensive knowledge. Lee is a cool dude.

That guy in the back is creeping me out

Even after seeing your artwork in comic books for many, many years now. I'm still blown away by how easy you make it look. I've been an artist ever since I could hold a pencil. And only recently have I really begun to pull my ability together. And it's because of watching your videos! Thanks Jim Lee!

The dynamics of his pencil work are awesome, beautiful sketches that seem to just appear from nowhere.

Listening to Jim Lee explain super complex stuff simply is my ASMR.

Jim's voice calms me, thank you Jim for this course🙏

this is great. I've loved Jim lee's art since I was old enough to understand comics. my friends and I would always argue the "best" comic artist for various reasons. and even though all the different styles out there are magnificent in their own right, Jim Lee was always my #1 choice. superb.

*Jim Lee draws ribcage* Me: Huh, it looks like chest armour Jim: It's like chest armour

Jim has always been my favorite comic book artist. I wish he would come out with an art/ drawing book

I have watched many tutorials but this one, has been the one which helped me the most. Jim Lee's art is my favourite, his tutorials are very simple and informative. If anyone is interested in learning more about drawing comic book characters, I recommend that you look up every Jim Lee tutorial you can find.

Your videos are so relaxing. I love how your mic pics up the pencil. Always been a big fan. Love that you take the time to do these.

This just xploded in my head. First body I draw after watching this was like WAY easier to get right. THANKS!

Beautiful thing is, The Legend is teaching us ... you are the best Sir Jim Lee .

Wow! I really feel like a superstar following this lesson. Thanks again for upping my game another level.

Damn it 😂. You make it look so easy. You’re incredible. I’m in art school and I have a hard time loosening up in my work, it takes me entirely too long to lay out a pose let alone a finish. Bravo. Just saw you the other day on Fatman Beyond, and while you’ve been here all along, I just now figured out you had a channel. You’ve got yourself another subscriber, this is treasure trove of knowledge. Thank you for your wisdom and experience Jim. Keep up the good work.

Jim Lee is hands down the best comic ever artists

Jim Lee is made 100 % of awesomeium :)

Aaaaaand once again, with this technique, Jim Lee has shown why he is a hero! My hero!

Please keep doing more of these videos, these tips help a lot!!

Amazing. Jim Lee is a legend.

Great technique and breakdown thanks, wasn't expecting the flat Ronnie that's awesome.

Thanks Jim Lee I needed to understand how to draw in the shadows when I draw in a comic book way .

Randomly came across this channel.... was not disappointed!! 😌😌😌

AMAZING!!! Thanks for teaching us! Master!

Thanks, master for explaining so magically what is important in any flat art form, the impression of movement and dept...just amazing! 👏👏👏 Cheers, Hans van Meer.

I really hope that one day I'll be able to draw as good as Jim Lee

Thank you this helped me alot with more or less sketching it out and how to make a dynamic pose thank you

Thanks Jim, simple yet effective. Appreciate it!

I am watching and studying everyday. Thank you very much.

Jim could just draw with his eyes close and still will look amazing. Thanks for all the tips they are awesome

Pure gold. Simple but essential knowledge. Thanks Jim!

Thank you for your patience to teach so many of us.

I think the really cool thing is even if you just take his guidelines like how he does the pelvis or how he does pentagonal hands, if you actually use all his tips, even if your rendering is different or the eyes aren't the same or w/e, you can still capture a similar feeling to Jim Lee's work

Your so great Jim. Thank you for sharing

Thank you for making this video! I really needed it!

i know that I am a lowly person who means nothing, but I just wanted to say that you have always been my 100% favorite artist of all time. You are the person I wanted to e when I ws a kid. You're work will live forever., and Thank you for all of your decades of prenominal work

freakin love this man, the legend

Thank you for this tutorial! I love it!!! Jim Lee, you are a genius!!!

Wow that's been very helpful. This is my first how to video on drawing. I've always had natural talent when it comes to drawing but this video has helped take my work to another level

I learned so much from this. Its funny how everything seems so obvious after someone shows it to you

This man is so amazing to watch

Tbh I think Comic book artists are best to learn from. They understand how the body works in action and how to simplify the motions to basic shapes and positioning. I learned so much from this 15min video than I ever did in any class or personal practice.

Of all the tutorials I have watched this one is definitely the most helpful

thank you jim, for the art and lessons

Amazing! Thank you for the lesson. You inspired me a lot.

This was great stuff Mr Lee. You simplified the way of making the process. Thank you sir.

6:10 Scared the sh*t out of me

I love how Jim Lee can draw all of this in Marker and not mess up. One day I’ll reach his talent level. I just started drawing yesterday, wish me luck!

Great stuff! Love that RM cameo in the background. Met Jim Lee in 1990 at a mini con In downtown SF near EMB. Was trying to get him to notice my art but he was getting hounded. Some guy named Bob Harras was giving me props for my art but I was paying too much attention to Jim Lee. What a dummy I was. Suzanne Gaffney and Whilce Portacio were also there.

Awesome advice and a good lesson on how to improve. I will try and implement these techniques and I'm sure given time I can get better at drawing human anatomy. Thanks for the helpful video. :)

First time I've seen the Legend sketch in real-time or speak, after being a fan of his work for 30 years. All I've seen is his picture and incredible artwork. Fascinating. What an absolute legend.

I've always been into comics and drawing but in high school and college it was all sports for me, now that i cant really play anymore, (shoulder) You have inspired me to draw more. Thanks.

Hi Jim! Loving your series, serious long time fan, don't quite idolise you (creepy!), but you, humberto, and a bunch of others are my linework heroes, I stare at pages for 15 minutes at a time without realising. Any-hoo, just followed this one over a few hours or so, lots of breaks from chronic fatigue, but improving rapidly. Haven't drawn in years and missed the basics at school (they just didn't teach it) so LOVING this! Thanks for the masterclass for FREE, who knew?!?

This is one of the best instruction videos I've seen. Thanks bruh.

Good job Mr. Lee. Thank you for this.

He draws DD so beautifully

Even the most basic draft Jim Lee does is Master Piece! Love his work (especially in Punisher War Journal).

Seeing jim lee with a headset on makes me so happy

I actually follow both reference it was amazing to hear it from a pro well not everyone on this day have little sister's ballerina always jumping and dancing and don't forget the action figures collection the rubber band detail just caught me off guard you make me travel on your personal time machine those was priceless days thanks for your inspirational time

man the way u catch such poses is perfect.

JIM LEE IS A FRAKKIN' WIZARD

Not sure if Jim knows this; but he is a superb unintentional ASMRtist.

been waiting for this upload

Jim Lee=the best.

This video is helping me out a lot. Just ran by your work. Thanks for the hard work putting out these videos. Just subbed and looking forward to seeing more videos bro man dude.

Fascinating video. Pretty sure there was an audible "click" inside my drawing brain while watching. Can't wait to try this out! Thanks, Jim!

Awesome, keep making such videos

Jim Lee knows so much about the human body, that if he wasnt a comic book artist, he would be a docotr

Loving your stuff man!!!

Those strokes are so pro.

Dude you are now my favorite artist in the WORLD!!

Thank you Mr. Lee!

Love the "Ronnie the Limo driver" in the background!!

This was so cool to watch.

Mr Lee , you know you didn't teach anything but that was inspiring for fast drawing and thank you for that....if you see an ability in someone else , you realize that you can do it too!

I learned so much. Thank you

My first how to draw book was "How to draw the Marvel way" written by Stan Lee and illustrated by John Buscema. I bet you Jim Lee read that too as a kid. Even with all these youtube vids, just get a copy of that if you love comics and want to draw. Fantastic addition to all these learning tools.

I can't thank you enough for this,sir!

Man, thanks, Jim.

thank you for this jim i will take all this with me into my drawings

Belas dicas mestre 😍

thanks heaps so cool to see a brake down of motion
