Earlier this week I ordered some new supplies from DickBlick.com, and among them was a set of the Faber-Castell PITT artist pens that JB said he's been using lately. The brush pen is wonderful, and feels really good in my hand, although I profess to not being very good with it yet. I've never liked traditional brushes, and I've only tried one other brush pen a few years back, so my experience is limited. Anyway, I found a pencil drawing I did recently and tried the new one out; this was the five-minute result:

Everything was done with the brush pen except the little lightning tendrils coming off the hands; those I did with one of the fine-tip pens that came with the set. Both implements work very smooth on the art board, too. Recommended!

Is every artist here inspired by Byrne? I think it's great to have this
thread, I grew up wanting to be an artist like Byrne and followed his
work fanaticly, fantastic work here. I'm amazed at the range of talent
here.

Inspired, most certainly. I've never tried to emulate one particular artist in my drawing, but JB is definitely an influence, and with his pencil scans readily available, it's a constant art lesson. Others who's linework I can study for hours are John Romita Jr and John Buscema. I've heard stories that the stuff John Buscema drew on the back of his comic pages would just blow everyone at the Marvel offices away.

I could just imagine, Roger. I wish artists weren't so time restricted
to draw comics, but then you have the rare artist like JB who draws so
fast he goes back in time and makes jaws drop. I'd love to see artists
personal works.

Sean - That Spider-Woman is great!.
Michael - More nice work.
John - I really dig the figure.
MAC - more coolness.
Matthew - Quite dramatic.
Anthony - There isn't much critique at this point it looks pretty good.
Both the ship and the planet need more detail, but you are still working
on it. The one thing that stands out is that the probe (Nomad is it?) is out
of scale. To appear that size next to the Enterprise it would have to be
much bigger than it was in the show. You may want to make smaller, or
bring it closer to the viewer. Cool monster pieces too.
Roger - Nice drawing, who is the character.
