Comic Artist Magazine

It's really amazing the things you can find at issuu! 

Here is another magazine that got my attention. This one is about comic and manga art. What's even better? 

This magazine is one of the special editions of ImagineFX magazine!!!

According to myfavouritemagazines.co.uk description:

Creating Comic and Manga art is a fantastic way to hone your digital art skills. 

 

Whether you want to learn how to draw anatomy, ink manga characters, compose environments or paint expressive figures, mastering the fundamentals of comic art will improve your techniques and skills as an artist.

 

Inside this special issue of ImagineFX you will discover how to refine your line with expert artists including Stanley Lau and learn how to mix 3D software techniques with 2D in order to plan your comic page environments with 2000 AD's Dylan Teague.

 

Contents include:

• Improve your comic workflow
• Compose a group of characters
• Use personality in your art
• Paint an original character
• Plus much more!

I want to add that at the 'Plus much more!' up there there is a special Disc along with the magazine, the printed edition, I don't know about the digital one...

Inside this Disc you can find Video Tutorials from famous comic artists along with some special help video tutorials by Stanley Lau, Paco Rico Torres and PJ Holden.

There are also Process Images of all the tutorials inside the magazine with the artists' original tutorial images, sketches and WIPs.

Final Artwork, each tutorials final artwork has been collected inside the Disc in a big digital galery so that is easier for us to study the artwork (and adore it like god!).

And something really special, Custom Brushes!

A small sneak peak at the first pages!

One reason why I loved it is because it has information, examples and tutorials of all kind of comic!!!

Oh how much I fell in love with that girl in black leather clothes!!! I'm so jealous!!

I want to do something like this too....

As you can see from just those few images we are talking about  great variety!

This magazine was published on September 2013.

Juxtapoz Magazine

I was kind of confused at first with this magazine. I couldn't understand from the first pages what exactly it was. There were a lot of product advertising, especialy about clothes and accesorises. Later I found that it was an art, culture and design magazine.

There are a lot of interviews and articles about many artists of all kinds. There is also a great variety of art work presented. I found many artists that caught my attention with their work and I didn't know about them before. There are a lot of interesting articles too.

Creative Thinking Project 2 (First Semester) - Part C

Project's Subject: Typography  Word's "Crown" Finals

Crown's final

It was decided that the crown word should change. My professor suggets to try and find a font that will have the "w" look like a crown instead of making my own...

So, I made an imahe list with some fonts...

Well, the ones that I prefer are 2, 4, 5, 7, 10 and 11...

What do you think?

Creative Thinking Project 2 (First Semester) - Part B

Project's Subject: Typography Finals

Finals selection

So, from the rough drafts we ended in three words. I made all of them as they will be in their final stages. One of them will be chosen as the final one and then I'll have to design the storyboard of its animated version.

1st word : Corner
I made this word with too different fonts since I wasn't sure which one I should chose.

1st Arial Rounded

2nd Arial Bold

2nd word : Crown

3rd word : Depressed
