Course Description

In this course you will learn how to draw comic style art from the basic sketch to the final rendering. You will gain a better understanding on how to create illustrations with depth and dimension. By using line, shape, and forms we can construct anything. I will teach you how to simplify the things around you and then draw them with your own creative filter.
For this course you will need a pencil and paper or a drawing tablet. I will be using Traditional Comic Art tools such as 2h and HB lead. Bristol board smooth and various erasers. You will learn more about these tools as Iam using them to create the work. You can still create and follow along with a regular pencil and paper.
This course is broken up into 5 main sections. Section 1 - Understanding Line - Shape - FormSection 2 - Drawing Comic Book Style FacesSection 3 - Shading and RenderingSection 4 - Drawing Poses for Comic Book Characters + Designing a CharacterSection 5 - Drawing a Zombie - Textures and ImperfectionsYou will work through a variety of practice activities that you can share in the Q+A Section of this course. Make sure to be specific with any questions or trouble areas you may have. I will do my best to offer any insight that Ican.

I have been a working professional artist for most of my life. I have been published in comics, created 3D animation and characters for television, illustrated storyboardsfor commercials,and owned and operated my own design firm successfullyfor over 15years.
I am also the author of the book "Learn to Draw Action Heroes"by Impact Publishing.
I am currently a professional freelance illustrator andcomic artist where I create digital artformy clients.I create sequential art and character concepts.
I now share my knowledge in digitalart and computer software through onlineplatforms such as Udemy and have a growing Youtube channel as well. With over 100,000 Youtube subscribers and quickly growing I felt I should create some more in depth content for students wanting to take their skills to the next level.
My goal is to help aspiring artists realize their potential and break their mental barriers that hold them back from creating the artwork of their dreams. We can all do it with the right instruction and work ethic. That is what Iam here to teach my students.
I am very dedicated to my students and responsive to any of your questions so please don't hesitate to ask. I am here to help!

excellent but during many of your classes your hand comes in the way of the camera. this disrupts the flow of your teaching

This is the second best art style I've done. Amazing, keep making new lessons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

By Percival Constantine Pollard on 9/24/2020

Some pretty good content and Robert is great with specific feedback. But I would have liked a bit more theory in general as opposed to how to draw specific pieces. How to use techniques like crosshatching is one thing in particular I'd like to learn more about.

This was amazing course, I learned a lot. Liked how Robert explained his thought process behind design decisions and how he thinks about lines, forms and shadows. Highly recommended to anybody learning illustration.
