Bart Sears' Drawing Powerful Heroes: Brutes and Babes V2!

Created by Bart Sears

We are back with the second volume in Bart Sears’ Drawing Powerful Heroes series of definitive, how-to-draw books by Bart Sears. This second volume will be a massive, 144-page oversized hardcover, and continue one of the best how-to-draw series ever published. Completely written and edited by Bart Sears, this edition will be perfect for beginners and more advanced artists alike, as well as anyone interested in the art of and creative reasoning behind drawing powerful comics. Acclaimed comic artist Bart Sears taught an entire generation to draw with his Brutes and Babes column in Wizard Magazine, which was the bible of the comics industry for a decade. In the pages of Wizard, Bart presented dozens of drawing and storytelling tutorials, providing an expansive education in comic art and illustration.

Recommended Campaign: Grinidon
about 5 years ago – Thu, Mar 21, 2019 at 07:26:51 PM

Hi, Brute Force!

Supporting other creators is fundamental for us at Ominous Press. But with so many great campaigns, it can be overwhelming to choose what to support. Fortunately, we have done our homework and can recommend campaigns to you like this one: Grinidon: A Fantasy Graphic Novel - Volume 4

From the campaign: For three generations, the kingdoms of Carnasus and Gallinir have been at war - first as lords in their homeland, and now as kings on the newly discovered island of Calaway.

It was here that the world was first introduced to the races of elves and orcs, and a land much more ancient and mysterious than they ever knew existed.

Grinidon is the story of the island, its people and kingdoms, and the convergence of new civilizations and power.


Best,

Ominous Press

As our campaign winds down in its last day, we have a few more goodies to show you! We just received two new Brute & Babe pin-ups. 

The first is a another great piece by Robert Atkins, with our heroes orbiting a planet in all their cosmic glory. 

The second piece is by the fabulous Gustavo Duarte, an acclaimed Brazilian artist who actually learned to draw from collecting the Brute & Babe articles in Wizard Magazine. Gustavo is a master of body language and expression, giving us a gloriously fun take on our heroes.  


Both of these fantastic pieces of Brute & Babe original art measure 11 inches by 17 inches, and can be yours for a pledge of $600 or more each. These rewards also includes both digital and physical copies of Drawing Powerful Heroes: Volume 2, and the print copy of the Blue-Line Drawing Guide.

Each of these pin-ups is a one-of-a-kind original, so pledge today! When they’re gone, they’re gone! Thanks!

All my best,

We can DO THIS!
