I personally made some prints of this image that I've sold at shows. It would be cool if marvel did a poster. I just don't know.

Im a comic artist myself and I'm always getting atracted to digital tools, has you said, it makes no sense to learn to use them if you already know how to make this by yourself. Also I agree that inaccuracies make an image more interesting, perfect is boring.<br />Thanks Mr Weaver you are an inspiration.<br /><br />(sorry for the crappy English, Im Argentinian)Emiliano Alvarezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05689992805745533560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7454708865321742269.post-9073817105281703582012-11-01T20:03:04.222-07:002012-11-01T20:03:04.222-07:00Sunspot.

Actually the...I guess I'm just that damn good;)<br />Actually there is all kinds of weird and probably wrong things happening in this background. That is, I think if you did manage to create this shot with 3d models it would turn out way different. And I think it would be hard create.<br /><br />Someone on tumblr asked me if I used Sketchup. Here's how I put it to them:<br /><br />I’ve never gotten into using Sketchup or any other 3-D modeling software. I know that a lot of artists use 3-D models to save time, but I’ve put a lot of effort into learning how to visualize and create this kind of stuff on my own. I’m just faster and more adept at drawing with a pencil and paper than I am at making 3-D models or even searching for the right ready-made model.<br /><br />Another appeal of 3-D models is the fact that you can get things exactly and consistently right. This is an attractive idea for an illustrator who values realism. But I don’t mind getting things wrong. I actually believe that inaccuracies make an image more interesting.

So instead of risking it, I decided to do it in photoshop where I can always undo something if I don't like it. <br /><br />I included the grays as a separate layer so that Justin could colorize it without effecting the line art. The result is something cleaner and slicker than I would have gotten with markers... Markers work on the characters because there are no big areas of gray where you would start seeing the strokes. <br /><br />I'll take the complement on Falcon, but I've seen some good Black Widows.<br /><br />About the intricacies of this piece-- I should have included a version of this image with my crazy warped perspective grid over-laid on it. It was tough stuff to work out, so I appreciate you saying that I pulled it off.

Obviously, most of the time everyone should back off and let an artist run with a vision. But sometimes a team of people who are in sync can make a better thing... Sometimes, just sometimes, all those cooks in the kitchen end up making a lot of good food.Dustin Weaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15512082139375843377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7454708865321742269.post-92207906540961051352012-09-23T21:29:14.011-07:002012-09-23T21:29:14.011-07:00Just don't let it make you sick of the image b...Just don't let it make you sick of the image before the actually issues come out and keep you from buying them.Dustin Weaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15512082139375843377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7454708865321742269.post-22925445080715829652012-09-21T21:10:45.478-07:002012-09-21T21:10:45.478-07:00I'm a greedy bastard because I wish you had in...I'm a greedy bastard because I wish you had inked the whole thing with markers. ;)<br />The tones on the Avengers are just spectacular.
