The Good Savage

Published:
1.1K Views

Description

This might become another story, playing around the myth of the good savage (Tarzan, anyone?)

It started as a photo referenced exercise (characterdesigns.com), but it looks a Joe Kubert pose so much, I had to do something with it.

btw, Joe Kubert gave an excellent interview on Where Monsters Dwell's podcast last week. The man's a living legend!

That's a really good image! I like the way you inked the background in very balanced way and keeping the focus on the main character.
The position and the anatomy of Tarzan is good too, the black spot areas are well placed. I'd like to have another solution for the inking of the foreground leg upper part, it's a bit confusing. The shadows on the body are good, but I'm sure with more practice you're going to improve even more!

One of the best thing I've seen from you pal!

Keep up the good work

P.S.: I don't see too much Kubert in it
