Hello Students!

Welcome to my Class, "Drawing Comics - The Art of Rendering!"

In this class we will be focusing on a variety of rendering and texturing effects. You will work along side me on three project files.  After we sketch out the basic forms we will then jump head first into the exciting world of rendering!

I will show you my process for cleaning up the lines and applying style to the finished rendition.  This is by far my favorite part of the comic illustrative process.  I hope that you will gain a lot from these lessons and I am here if you have any questions or feedback for me!

What you will learn in this class - 

  • Light and Shadow
  • Rendering Various Surfaces
  • Creating Depth and Dimension
  • Line Weight + Line Clarity
  • Cross Hatching + Texturing

Proper rendering can make a good drawing look AMAZING!  I hope you are excited to get started and I can't wait to see what you come up with.

As always, good luck with your art and talk to you soon!

-Robert
