Anatomy Studies

in #art5 years ago (edited)

I've been really interested in the artist Frank Frazetta recently. Looking at some of his comic work and book covers inspired me to attempt to emulate his style.

If you aren't familiar with Frank Frazetta, He is an American fantasy and science fiction artist who most notably designed book covers and other art for Conan the barbarian. His work is truly next level and if you are into anatomy, he brings a unique edge to the traditional style.

I cant recommend his art books enough. Great stuff

Frazetta, in my opinion, adds the perfect amount of idealism and exaggeration to his figures, which not only makes them interesting to look at but also tangible to the viewer.

I don't do much anatomy work anymore but I had a lot of fun messing around copying some of his paintings and drawings. Anatomy is one of those things that's always helpful to go back and brush up on. I did my best.

Excellent work! I've been a big fan of Frank Frazetta and his art with Conan, death dealer and many more for a lot of years. Especially the work he did in the 70's and 80's. His work inspired many, glad it still does. Well done.
