itt: we post and discuss sleek /co/ art of the ages, as exemplified by bruce timm, shane glines, darwyn cooke, and others.panels, pages, pin-ups, all are welcome
>>144468537This is Shane Giles, right? The best comic artists are always coomers.
>>144468554yep.
>>144468537The right arm looks atrophied, but other than that it’s very nice.
>>144468537Imagine if Bruce Timm and Paul Dini had laid the foundation for Marvel animation rather than DC.
>>144468600
How does Timm's art style perfectly encapsulate a "MUH DICK" sensitivity?
>>144468637
>>144468554Liking attractive women doesn't make you a "coomer". It makes you human.
>>144468647
Always loved Timm's art. I wonder how well it would look if adapted to animation with a higher budget for more more detail and complex shading.
does toth fit in with this bunch?
>>144468668
>>144468680
>>144468682
>>144468697
>>144468709
>>144468718
>>144468679would probably lose some of that iconic feel of the characters.
>>144468696God damn, I love Black Canary.
>>144468637Timm is a know coomer, and at the same time he modified his style so that he could work in the industry.
>>144468782she's very pretty.
cooke was absolutely brilliant
>>144468813Very clean style, not overly detailed. But it just feels timeless.
>>144468856
>>144468849and his compositions are just so cool. he frames certain shots with a heightened sense of drama that works so well in superhero comics.
Ronnie Del Carmen only drew a handful of comics but he did cartoon t&a with the best of them.Alienfags hate these books btw.
Here's some early concept art for Kim Possible, looks like Shane Glines' work.
>>144469233We were robbed.
glines' style has really changed throughout the years it seems
>>144468537Does this artstyle have a specific name? It seems to be distinct enough to be considered one, and seems to be still used today, even if it's not as widespread as styles like Calarts and such
>>144469679I've heard people calling it Timm style. He wasn't the first to do it, but I'd say he did popularize it.
>>144469679i don't know if it has an "official" name but someone suggested neo-noir earlier
>>144469679Jack Kirby rip-off.
Like, sleek versions of characters? Dark Horror Spawn is such a good design.
>>144468537>as exemplified by bruce timm, shane glines, darwyn cooke, and others.Does Tim Sale count?
>>144469778Sleek more as in character design, with a big use of dynamic poses and such from looking at the style.
>>144468637>>144468647mommy
>>144470129
>>144470136
Bill Presing hits the same notes, I think some of his new stuff kind of loses that simplicity but it's still got the attention to silhouette
Dan DeCarlo predates Bruce Timm and likely inspired him. Similar sleek art style and notoriously also a coomer.
>>144470325Damn, that's nice. I'm surprised at how many artists have this style, I wonder why it isn't seen more often in media since the 2000s.
>>144470372
>>144470383
>>144469638>>144468637>>144468647>>144470372>>144470325>>144469895>>144469731This style needs a name, it's too good to not have one. If CalArts can be a style, so can this.
>>144470394
>>144470410
>>144470418
>>144470429
>>144469638>Poison Ivy straddling hard woodMUH DICK
>>144470477
>>144470488
>>144470497
>>144470399It's just the traditional comic book style, it's been around since the 1930s, read any comic book from the 1930s to the 1950s, it was pretty standard back then before Kirby, Ditko, Romita and Buscema started deviating from it a little bit, and then the new generation of artists decided to bring more and more realism.
>>144470502
>>144470517We need to go back to this then, it looks way better then a lot of styles used today.
>>144470583More importantly it’s distinctly American, it’s shameful that most cartoons and comics drawn here in the States today are either beanslop or dollar store anime.
>>144470377Because it's a pretty niche I feel, most these guys probably >>144470372Last thread basically said that Timm cribbed his style from the character designer Lynne Naylor after . So I think she's probably the biggest inspiration though you can see a bit of that retro aesthetic in his original it just didn't click until she showed him the way.>>144470399>>144470517Meh I don't like trying to force labels, though it's definitely a bit more specific than simple traditional comic book style. Compare this to something like Wally Wood or Alex Raymond and it has this lovely simplicity that those and a lot of house styles of the day don't.
>>144470583It’s just too good.
>>144470758Beanslop is a big issue, since it really only works for certain shows yet it's being used for every animated show, even adult ones. It actually a big reason I feel that what Timm did was make the artstyle fit for animation, but nobody seems to have followed up and made different shows outside of superheros using a similar style.
>>144471240True
>>144468637>>144468647>>144468682>>144468697>>144468709>>144468718>>144468733>>144468782Is it weird that it's not arousing to me when he doesn't do the torpedo tits? I look at those and all I can think is "why are their tits round? That's not how he draws them."
>>144472136Nah its not, you're used to his style being one way so when he uses softer edges it doesn't work for you.
>>144470394DO IT, RONALD>>144470410>>144470429>>144470477>>144470497>>144470502>>144470518lmao I love horny boomer humor
>>144472317It's the mix of lewd and cute that makes it fun.
>>144470372>Dan DeCarlo did Archie comicsHuh. No wonder they were so popular. All the girls were top tier.
>>144470325Presing was the storyboard artist for the Gotham Girls webtoon, you can’t tell in some of the cheesecake-y poses the characters strike.
>>144473032I mean you can tell.
>>144468537most of this style is just Archie shit...beanmouth and John K bullshit is all Americans got going for them.Great cartoon style comes from Franco/Belgian comics.I SHIT ON AMERICA
>>144473291
>>144473300
>>144469698>He wasn't the first to do it, but I'd say he did popularize it.who was the first?
>>144473484I’m not sure who was first but there were artists who came before Bruce Timm that clearly had to have inspired his own work, like Dan DeCarlo and other pinup/comic strip artists.
>>144473526>clearly had to have inspired his own work, like Dan DeCarlo oh he does seem like a clear predecessor just from a very cursory image search. even timm's signature seems to pull from decarlo. thats neat. gonna have to look up more of decarlo's art after work.

>>144468682What the hell is her story though?
>>144469698what book is this page from?
>>144469895i think so, yeah
>>144468554Same reason some of the best manga artists also draw porn they good at composing a character and anatomy
>>144470399 Old pulpy artstyle where the women were babes and the men were chads plus some Kirby.
>>144470325wow, he's pretty amazing
>>144473291jesus
>>144473698>those beady little pig-like eyes never miss a thingholy shit, parker!
>>144468537
More Presing
niso ramponi a.k.a. kremos belongs here. he drew brilliant curves. i've tried finding scans of his art books for a while now without success.
>>144475661
>>144473599Yeah, it looks like he was a major influence on Timm, who seemes to have streamlined DeCano's design style, which if I had to guess was probably so they could be animated and drawn easier and faster. The question is does Timm have a successor like he was to DeCarlo?
>>144475654Atompunk/Raygun Gothic is kino, shame art of it is so scarse.
Why do cartoon girls with really far apart eyes look hot but it looks weird as hell in real life? It seems like they should register as aliens but they’re muh dick tier
>>144476195Because irl those types tend to have big or flat noses which is the reason their eyes are apart. So it looks weird since most people prefer smaller noses, which causes people to look negatively on the eyes
>>144469895man, this guy makes some moody stuff
>>144476237C'mon. You know why.
>>144476488The style goes well with a lot off stuff.
>>144469759I don't think so, it's more like a mis between those old pulpy babe drawing artists with Kirby in the mix as well>>144469895
>>144474936>>144475589>>144475654>>144475661>>144475667>>144475673>>144475676Very nice additions.
>>144478153
>>144478206have some more kremos
>>144478840
>men from 50 years ago were also tits, ass, legs, and belly sort of dudesmankind never changes, huh?
>>144480080
bump
Jack Cole (creator of Plastic Man)
>>144481443Belly
It's very pleasing to me seeing so many of these boomers were shameless ass-men
>>144481618The well-formed female posterior is perhaps the greatest natural work of art to ever come into existence. I feel it's rivaled only by a set of perfect tear-drop tits.
>>144468537>as exemplified by bruce timmITs funny I was looking at his nudie books on sadpanda like two weeks ago,Dude really likes drawing nakeds womens
>>144481700I'm a bit frustrated, since his style is deceivingly simple. One might think they can replicate it easily, but this kind of simplicity actually requires quite a bit of artistic skill and knowledge of anatomy. I wish it really was as easy at it looked. God I want to draw my own coomer pin-ups...
Kremos guy do you have that old school ad of the woman diving? I've been trying to remember who that artist is.>>144481737Yeah it's always a bitch. I remember trying to draw Bruce Timm style women with the hip sway. Everyone would always ask "why is she sticking out her crotch like that?"
>>144481737I know right its why I posted this image.It looks simple as fuck, but it makes your peepee diamond hard. This is very erotic its simple but perfection.
>>144481443More Cole.
>>144482120
>>144482330
>>144482344
>>144481994Artist please?
Something I always notice in this kind of art is that the males always look like schleps and losers, they’re never on the same level as the women. Is that the artists projecting feelings of inadequacy or something?
>>144484141Better for comedy, which a lot of these strips are meant to be. Funny but also sexy.
>>144468637>>144468647I love Sue Storm.
>>144484167A big thing I've noticed about these that isnt common nowadays is it's not just a drawing of a hot girl, it's a drawing of a hot girl doing something that's not just her posing for a camera. It spices up to everything I feel, makes those posing drawing stand out more
>>144484861Girl in Void is so common now I could scream
>>144484861Yeah, a lot of them are the superheroines in action, very dynamic and fluid. Others are more fly-on-the-wall, showing us the girls in the middle of some activity. It feels more natural, even though a lot of these pics are played for comedy.
>>144469895Absolutely. Plus added points for his catwoman when in Rome covers all being Gruau homages.
>>144484861>that isnt common nowadaysBecause it’s mostly just Instagram pictures traced
>>144480080its just amazing how he managed to depict a certain firmness
>>144481773i love how toth drew her hair.
>>144482330>estrogen soufflésheh
>>144484141the vintage ones are like that and as the other person said its because they were comedies. Timm and the other modern guys can draw handsome guys bery well.
>>144483321nta but isn't it darwyn cooke?
>>144475667>>144475676are these also by presing?
I love sexy women~
>>144480080>>144480090What is the caption for these? Cant find em.
>>144486820Who’s the artist on this one?
>>144468557This book was dope
>>144487927What book is it?
>>144468537Good thread. I really want to start learning this style so I can draw in it properly, and not just imitate it somewhat.
>>144488256Same, it's a bit deceptively simple though so it's been hard to get a hang of, but not impossible.
>>144488220Batman: Ego and Other TailsDarwyn Cooke
>>144486659>bery well
>>144488256Hot Zatanna
>>144488256post your attempts?
>>144490601>>144488636Just did these tonight, still getting the hang of it ofc. I've done Timm stuff before but mostly just using references of pre-drawn stuff - These were done only using skeletal frames & guides, that kinda shit.Will take a few days to master before I can draw stuff thats suitable in my eyes.
>>144490826body proportions are looking pretty good! gotta reduce the distance between nose and mouth by quite a lot though.
>>144490923True. As I said still getting the hang of it. I'm better with drawing animal / creature types than humanoids in general (Picrel)Will still try to master this though because I can't pass up the opportunity of making pin-ups of all my favourite DCAU waifus whenever I want.
>>144491018human, animal, either way somebody is gonna coom to it
>>144490826Not bad. Gotta keep at it though
>>144487845Average Bruce Timm enjoyer.
>>144492176>>144491080Seems like I'm on the right track.
>>144481618https://youtu.be/NuT5KUA7iaY?si=CLMITpbV6H1mT9Bk
>>144492454Nice work!
>>144490826>>144492454You have a lot of practice ahead of you.Don't give up.
>>144494268I will not fail you anon.I don't care if it takes me a week, a month or a year.I will master this style, and when I do,All the hot bitches will be mine.
I love curved lines bros
>>144479270I think tits are more of relatively recent thing. Ancient history didn't really seem to regard beasts much more than fertile/maternal symbols, not really sexual.
>>144494774They're very enchanting for some reason
The common link is that Timm and Giles understand that peak sexuality is a teenage asian woman
>>144482885Nice butt.
>>144468537Some of pál pusztai aside of Jucika...
>>144468537Artist?
>>144499910shane glines
>>144501358
>>144468537I like this type of art.I have no idea what any of the words mean.
>>144468656Coomers are people who make stuff like this most of the time, not just occasionally.
>>144501419L.A.'s Bedroom girls. And with those small mouthed mamas? For greater than 18 years.
>>144501419Who's this?
>>144468600We could have had it all...
>>144476059>he question is does Timm have a successor like he was to DeCarlo?Shane Glines, Glenn Murakami, James Tucker. One thing people don't realize is that a lot of DCAU designs weren't by Timm himself.
>>144501419I used to buy this particular brand of comic and fap like crazy then I was a kid
>>144494774Same.
>>144505218>Glenn Murakamivery nice.
>>144468537Hhoott
>>144484751She fucks anons
>>144468637To think Timm sacrificed his style for whatever the fuck the Caped Crusader designs are. Sorry to ruin the thread with this thing.
I like when artists not associated w/ this style try it out like the great Kelley Jones here
not sure who made pic related but i think it fits here.>>144508705that's gorgeous
>>144463226>Is that Empowered?Yes.Kung Fu is a bunch of short stories. One of them is about Emp. Been a while since I read it, but I think it's just one of the first specials.
>>144508501I legit feel there was some (read:a lot of) executive meddling in that show, and it's sadly going to get dragged down by that bullshit.
>>144509363She shits from there
>>144509439That's kind of hot.
>>144508501This isn't the best Harley Quinn design but I like the design on the right.
>>144508756john k!
Artists are fucking coomers
>>144511981Of course.
>>144510836oh, thanks! wouldn't have guessed he could draw ladies like the one on the left.
>>144508705>the great Kelley JonesDoes he manage to keep faces consistent this time?
Fred Moore
>>144508705i assume he didn’t have a riddler model sheet handy
>>144470795> Last thread basically said that Timm cribbed his style from the character designer Lynne Naylor after . So I think she's probably the biggest inspiration though you can see a bit of that retro aesthetic in his original it just didn't click until she showed him the way.…ican see that (sorta)
>>144469381Wonderful shape design. Good thread
>>144510836Are you sure? I think that might be one of Lynn Naylors girls
>>144514816he did work with her. maybe she influenced his girl art
>>144468922>>144468849>>144468813I just recently picked up the martini edition of Parker. Good fucking shit.
>>144482356>sweet bro and hella jeff y-mouth
>>144473404>Can't a woman expose herself completely without a man staring!? The nerve!
>>144473698Christ, she looks ugly here. I think it's how she's always scowling and those seriously overdone mascara.
>>144475661Have ou considered just buying one of the artbooks?
>>144491018You're definitely not better at drawing animals, the leg and head anatomy here is really weak. You need to study skeletons and skulls more and work on layering the flesh on top believably.For this pic, the feet aren't even on the same planes on the floor.
pinterest says pic related is by ronny del carmen but im not sure.>>144516666i have. there are a couple volumes available on amazon, but i'm poor and felt it'd be an irresponsible purchase.
>>144509188>Producers JJ Abrams and Matt ReevesYeah, pretty much
>>144516924It is. It's "The Bet" short comic written by Paul Dini and illustrated by Del Carmen. It's about a bet between imprisoned Harley and Ivy that Ivy can kiss every man in Arkham Asylum.
>>144518078thanks! gorgeous inks.
>>144518563
>>144514551Nice sketches.
>>144514551can tell he was an animator right away.
>>144508501I don't see an issueWhat's the issue?
>>144468537Does art from /a/ artists count?
>>144520993i'd be interested in checking it out. i rarely look at anime/manga stuff in general.
>>144518563>>144518577MUH
>>144518563>>144518577Fucking hot.>Straight HarleyBased Timm.
>>144518577>That Kara picShe’s mine, hands off Shrek
>>144520993No.>>144521032/a/ posts about this sort of thing a lot. You might be able to find a few threads, if not start one.
>>144515806Looks cool.
Bob Oksner, a super talented artist who worked on Angel and the Ape, Lois Lane, Supergirl, and a bunch of humor books. /co/ would, probably, know him best from this panel of his Captain Marvel run.
>>144523267Cute!
>>144508501is it harley or punchline?
>>144523267wow
>>144468600His Marvel drawings do look good, but I'm much happier with how things turned out with BTAS, STAS, JL and JLU.
>>144523962It's supposed to be Harley, but it looks like Punchline.
>>144523099If you’ve never read the Parker adaptations you’re missing out. Genuinely 4 of the best graphic novels ever made.
>>144523155Wish that was me.
Are there ANY upcoming shows with sexy character designs?ANY shows. C'mon.
>>144523267he seems really fantastic from a cursory image search. thanks for the introduction.
Has anyone ever scanned the last art collection Timm released back in 2020?
>>144527221No problem! It's a shame his runs haven't been collected, especially Angel and the Ape.
>>144523267>>144527532Lois Lane
>>144511981everyone with a penis is you retard
>>144523267>>144527532Any Batgirl fans?
>>144523267>>144527532And don't sleep on his Bob Hope and Jerry Lewis comics.
>>144501419Title: "The (female) hard workers""You suck with that mouth?"Rough translation cause this is Mexican slang and is hard to find direct equivalents
>>144527741thanks!
>>144523155A good death is its own reward.
>>144469365This is a caracter design style for Justice League Action, just like this is a style for the Harley Quinn show.
>>144527112They've been verboten since Flapjack's decendents have control of what the industry standard is, and they're not as creative as their predecessor either.
>>144530258i see. thanks for clearing things up.
not on my watch
Gentlemen of taste what is the consensus on the work of Owen Fitzgerald?
>>144531555Nice style.
>>144523267>>144527221i wonder if alex toth took inspiration from this guy. something about it feels like toth's work.
more from bob oksner
>>144468600Forever angry at what we were denied (Made SIGNIFICANTLY worse with the death of EMH)
>>144533137Meh even if we did get a Timm Marvel cartoon it likely would’ve been strangled in the cradle alongside EMH during the Disney acquisition
>>144527532She's a obscure one?
>>144533217This isn't Timm, it's Murakami.
>>144532922>>144532934Oskner for the Win!>>144533458She is Angel from Angel and the Ape. A short run series from DC Comics' 70s publication line.
>>144482344Great story telling.
>>144535929Classic Jack Cole
>>144532356If you are interested in reading some stories by him check out the comic Starlet O'Hara in Hollywood. It's public domain so it's free online.
>>144537793>moronica, miss nitwit of 1948oh god, hah!

>>144516703It's the legendary Cockleg Monitor, anon.
but where are they'all organs?
Incredible how a few curved lines can create such titillating images. It's genuinely inspiring.
>>144541535It's the best.
did bruce timm design dcau kara?
>>144542856yes
>>144542856Bruce Timm was the main artist behind the DCAU if I recall
>>144485472That and AI slop breaks the second you want the subject doing anything other than standing there with dead eyes.
another bump
>>144544122>>144544141cheers.
>>144545851Very nice.
>>144539207It sucks that her comic will never continue now.
>>144548180Why not?
>>144549586Dead people aren't known for their ability to draw. Or write, for that matter.
>>144549668:(
>>144549586The creator of her comic died.
>>144550900Aw, fuck
>>144551873Yeah, it's sad.
