I don't know if anyone's been paying attention lately, but J Scott Campbell is the freakin' man! I've been looking at a lot of stuff by him lately and his style has evolved. It's almost like he's taken a step back a little with his exaggerated proportions and it's really developed into some of the most beautiful artwork i've looked at in a while. His line work is top notch (always has been). You know how his women used to almost be too curvy? Like, sometimes from their skinny midsection to their hips it was crazy drastic. Like literally looking at a hour glass? Everythings settled a little making everything that much more beautifully subtle. Check out his calender (I heard he's working on another one) and also check out youtube. Just type in J Scott Campbell and you can find videos of him sketching at cons, at his house too I think and there's even an 8 part series of him lecturing/sketching at a con. All that's real cool, but if you just google J Scott Campbell, and then scroll all the way down to the bottom of the screen there's a website -
[link] - where the dude draws for literally a hour and 50 minutes or so. He's sketching different stuff, and shows some of the comissions he's working on, and the best part, if you watch to the end (u could probably skip ahead too) he shows a bunch of sketches he's working on and some layouts. And in those layouts, there's like 5 or 6 pages of the spiderman stuff he's working on. When that comes out I'm gonna be first in line at the comic shop to get it. And I know, Campbell's the big madonna like artist, but I don't care. He's the man.
As for me, right now I'm working on some samples (very slowly might I add) and a painting that I've been doing for my wife (also very slowly) but there should be some work there real soon that I can post. Oh, and my flag football team got second. We lost in the championship at the end
Hope everyone had a good Halloween, Jess and I did. Colt went as Batman this year after being Joker last year. Chip off the old block right?
Later On
