I do miss the old era of comic book art where they weren't trying to be ultra realistic with the art and instead tried more stylized stuff, which is why I currently really like the art for Gwenpool and the Skybound Transformers comicsm

I've always found comic book shadows fascinating, how they're realistic but then also not so much, all to make a better story. Great video. Thanks.

I’m always fascinated with the stylistic decisions over staying true reality. One of my biggest challenge as amateur. Thanks for the tips - love you videos
