Sin City is kino, i recommended the movie if you like the comics. The original version, not the other stupid version.

>>4046205
Why did they fuck up the editing of the movie so much in the unrated version? Makes no sense.

>>4046205
Best comic book adaptation by far.

Also, Miller’s art is fantastic (unlike his usual shit) - but quite heavily ripped off Hugo Pratt.

If you're gonna steal, steal from the best, anon.

>>4046262
Why was Pratt so based?

>>4046194
As someone trying to emulate this style, I cannot fathom the gigantic fucking balls these guys have to be able to look at 70% of the piece they labored over and think "I'm gonne cover all of this in black." Fucking terrifies me every time.

>>4046194
Who?

Sin City's art is kino

Why do people hate anime mainly ?
There's an anime general that isn't bothering you op.
There's shitty western cartoons, shitty memes, shitty tutorials, blog posting out there.

I can answer that... it's because people who like anime (or, more specifically, fucking weebs) get shit on a lot both irl and on non-anime-specific online communities. So when there's some banter on this board that panders to animebois like they're the ones keeping it afloat, they automatically revert to their regular REEEEE state.

They're like those dogs who can't tell the difference between being beaten and getting pats because their owner abuses them.

>>4047150
What Tradd did with Ghost Riders flames i think is comparable to what McFarlane did when he popularized Spaghetti Webbing for Spider-Man.

Nothing else can compare to this, any other interpretation of Ghost Riders flames are just completely lacking in comparison.

Mignolas art style really appeals to me and he's one of my favourite artists even though my artwork looks nothing like his.

>>4046252
It's fine because Pratt ripped off Alex Toth.

>>4046194

Has anyone picked up DC's "Batman: Noir" and "Unwrapped" series of comics? They're pretty good; they've done it to some of Frank Miller's work too.; all ink and pencil, no color. Figured they'd be great study material.

Sin City art by Chad Windsor-Smith

>>4046194
Is there an anime that comes even close to this dark inkwashy noir style?

>>4047408
I hate that he completely gave up in recent years. Hellboy in Hell looks like he drew basic layouts on a napkin and just inked them. Still surprisingly visually striking but nowhere close to where he was in that window between Wolves of Saint August and Conqeuror Worm.

Peak Mignola is comics-kino.

>>4047768
The closest ive seen is some anime deliberately riffed on Hellboys style for one of its ending credits sequences and went full Mignola aesthetic and it looked fucking incredible.

Other than that, probably Takeshi Koike stuff and some Madhouse stuff, like two of the Animatrix shorts Program and World Record (pic related), and Redline come close, he's done more stuff so theres probably more of his shit you can look at there.

Also its not technically anime but the Black Dynnamite animated series had some of that flair.

>>4046330
Pratt was a well travelled and well read man. His works always had god-tier research behind them, but at the same time managedto create extremely entertaining books. He was one of a kind for sure.

>>4047837
Did you mean Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei? The other one I know is Full Metal Alchemist. I'd post the former but youtubed nuked all videos of it.

>>4047901
>Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei
Aye, thats the one.

>>4046194
The epitome of, “when in doubt, black it out”, stylish as fuck though.

robert valley's art is in a similar vein-- he's mentioned mignola as a big influence multiple times

Bumpies

>like those dogs who can't tell the difference between being beaten and getting pats because their owner abuses them
This is a really good example, I'm remembering this one. Some people really get this way. But it's no wonder when you're shitting down each other's throats 24/7.

>>4046252
It looks more like it comes off of Jose Antonio Munoz (who studied under Pratt and Alberto Breccia).

>>4049578

I love this stuff
Does anyone here do inking and have tips to share

>>4049581
The art started to deform as it went on, as the protagonist aged in real-time. I like it even more.

>>4047653
I think Pratt came about around the same time as Toth. They were both inspired by Milton Caniff.

>>4049578
Perhaps more than Munoz, it was Alberto Breccia that directly influenced Miller.

>>4049670
He had a variety of styles.

One of the stories in Gotham Knight uses a pretty shadowy style like that.

Anime autism.

>>4051343
What about it?

>>4047162
Its not like you faggots don't bring it on yourself's. You all lack a couple of brain-cells, are mostly underage, refuse to pay any sort of attention to other mediums, 9/10 times have shit taste and have autism attacks at a drop of a dime. And lets not forget the animefags in /ic/ are an incredibly cancerous strain that constantly ask basic, stupid questions and refuse to work on their fundamentals with a bad case of dunning kruger on the side. Most people enjoy anime to some extent but you guys are like furries at this point, annoying.

>>4051614
> you

Do me a favor... fuck off and direct your autistic rage elsewhere. I never said I'm an anime fanatic but at least I can understand where they're coming from.

You're just as bad as they are.

These are from Wizard - How to draw - Advanced techniques.
A collection of tips from professional artists.

Thank you anon, is the rest of the book any good? If you have a link to it, do you mind sharing?

>>4051694
All the books are on libgen, search "wizard how to draw".
I wouldn't recommend buying it. Some tips are like the Mignola one, but others are very specific, like "how this artist draw metal surface", and maybe less helpful if you have a different style from the artist telling the tip/explaining his process.

>>4051644
Imagine being this insecure.

>>4051680
thanks for posting , friend

>>4051694
they vary very much. 'how to draw women' by wizard is fascinatingly bad

ahaha what??? holy shit, this has to be one of the most autistic posts i've seen on this site in a long while, and that says a lot. get a hold of yourself and consider getting a medical diagnosis you fucking turboautist sperglord. you have issues dude, your parents not beating the shit out of you enough as a kid is probably one of them.

>Pratt
The great thing about his art, is how light it feels to me, like doodles could be, but without loosing any of its expressiveness.
It's like he draws the same way one would talk. Freely.

This, however is apparently one of the most deliberate pages of this book, but I like it a lot for how it pulls you into the story.

>Surat 93, "The Morning Sun"
>By the sun in the morning
>And by night when the darkness thickens
>Your Lord has not forgotten, nor does He hold you in hatred
>And the hereafter is better for you than the present life.

>Hm... Why ?
>Because it's clean !

>>4053713
damn that's cool. Gangsters are peak aesthetic

>>4053713

His Jonah Hex stories are so awesome.

>>4057196
The tricky thing about Pratt's style is how loose his hand seemed to be when you see the final product. He really seems to be sketching. But the whole picture has been very carefully planned and worked to the point of perfection. For instance check out how much action and personality he puts in things like drawing hands. The whole expression of the character is often centered in their hands instead of just the face or the posture.

>>4057196
Nice

>>4047826
i honestly can not understand people who don't think Hellboy in Hell is peak Mignola, let alone that it's his worst work.

>>4062914
It really depends on the page, stuff like that is great but sometimes the really abstracted uber simplifcation of his art sometimes made me wonder what the fuck i was actually looking at.

Its not his worst work, its not even mediocre work, its still good, I just think he's done better.Maybe i should give it a reread, havent read it in a few years.

>>4062924
i don't know, it's my fav, probably because of the over-simplification. i guess it comes down to taste, i just think it's what his style has been building towards all these years

Can anyone give me a rundown on 'Baltimore' ?

i think the only reason why people hate anime is arguably because of the shitty attempts at that style by the west

>>4047768
Hiroyuki Imaishi is a Mike Mignola fanboy. Check out Dead Leaves.

>>4047692
posting blacksad comics is /ic/'s based and blackpilled

>>4062967
I think Mignola became too obsessed with the style. Every object becomes so particularly abstracted that the process becomes a rulebook and not guidelines. Too obsessive

>>4073194
this is similar to why kim jung gi;s style doesn't appeal to me. his work is so in love with the process of intricacy and lineart that i find his illustrations really hard to read compositionally

Transmetropolitan gives me multiple raging art boners.
Composition and rhythm are striking.

That's odd. I've never liked Darick Robertson's art in Transmetropolitan, but it wasn't distracting. Outside of this, everything he's worked on has looked like shit.
